A person may not camp within one-half mile of a developed campground or within one-half mile of a road in a state park, except as authorized by the director under 11 AAC 18.010, or as otherwise provided in 11 AAC 20.
(b) A person may not camp in a developed campground for more than 15 consecutive days in a calendar year, unless authorized by the director under 11 AAC 18.010.

The division shall post notice of a time limit of less than 15 days in the campground.
(c) After a vehicle or camping equipment has occupied a campground or campsite in a state park for the posted time limit or for 15 consecutive days, whichever is less, the vehicle or camping equipment must be removed from the state park and may not be returned to the state park for a period of 15 consecutive days.
(d) The director may post campground rules to limit certain activities, or hours of activity, in established campgrounds for the purpose of preserving the public peace, safety, comfort, and convenience.
(e) Every day that a person remains in a developed campground over the camping limitation constitutes a separate offense.
