(a) Before issuing a log salvage license, the division will publish notice of its intent to claim abandoned timber property, as required by AS 45.50.234 . At the time of application, the applicant shall bear the cost of advertising.
(b) The license fee prescribed by 11 AAC 05.010 must accompany each application for a log salvage license.
(c) The licensee is responsible for obtaining the permits required by law for the salvage operation. The division will inform the licensee of associated permit requirements and will assist the licensee in obtaining permits by supplying relevant information.
(d) If the salvage operation could, in the director's judgment, cause substantial harm to state land, fisheries, or wildlife, or to another operator, either because of the nature of the area in which the salvage operation will take place, the type of operation proposed, or the applicant's qualifications, the applicant shall post a liability bond in an amount the director judges sufficient to cover possible damages, but not to exceed $10,000.
(e) A log salvage license is valid for one year from the date of issue but shall be temporarily suspended upon notification by transporter of timber to permit timber recovery in the area of salvage. If a log salvage license is suspended under this subsection, the director will, in his discretion, extend the term of the license for a period equal to that portion of the operating season in which the licensee's access to the area of the salvage operation was denied. If, after issuance of a log salvage license, a state-approved log booming, rafting, or storage area is built in the area of the salvage operation during the period the log salvage license is in effect, the director will, in his discretion, modify the log salvage license.
(f) A log salvage licensee may annually renew a log salvage license obtained under 11 AAC 71.400(a) (1) for up to three years by paying the license fee prescribed by 11 AAC 05.010 at least 30 days before the expiration date of the license, and by qualifying under 11 AAC 71.405. The division will include provisions relating to renewal of a log-salvage license under this section in the original license.
