2017 Alaska Statutes
Title 30. Navigation, Harbors, Shipping, and Transportation Facilities
Chapter 13. Regional Resource Development Authorities
Sec. 30.13.130. Equal use and access.
If an authority owns, leases, or otherwise operates or controls, or participates in the financing of, a facility, the authority shall, to the maximum extent possible, provide for equal rights of access to and use of the facility by members of the public and other persons or entities upon terms and conditions that are fair and reasonable. However, this section does not prevent an authority from establishing fair and reasonable limitations on use of or access to a facility to the extent the limitations are necessary in connection with the nature of the facility or the demand for use of or access to the facility. This section applies to the establishment of rates and rate structures as well as all other factors, terms, and conditions relating to the use of or access to the facility, including without limitation the design and location of the facility. The members of the authority shall make a written finding concerning compliance of the facility with the provisions of this section. A written finding signed by at least three of the five elected members and two of the three appointed members that the facility complies with the provisions of this section shall constitute a conclusive presumption of compliance.
