The bill authorizes the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission to transfer an easement interest in certain Project 70 lands, specifically known as Lake Winola Access, located in Overfield Township, Wyoming County, to the Department of Transportation. This transfer is in accordance with the Project 70 Land Acquisition and Borrowing Act and will occur without the existing restrictions that are typically imposed on such lands. The bill outlines the specific parcels of land involved in the easement transfer, including a right-of-way and a slope easement, and emphasizes that mitigation for the loss of Project 70 lands will focus on enhancing public access and safety.
The legal language in the bill specifies that the title interests being transferred will not carry any of the existing Project 70 restrictions, thereby allowing for greater flexibility in the use of the land by the Department of Transportation. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage, facilitating the swift implementation of the easement transfer and the associated improvements to public access and safety in the area.
