This bill authorizes the release of Project 70 restrictions on certain lands owned by the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission, which were previously owned by the Borough of West Mifflin in Allegheny County. In exchange for this release, Project 70 restrictions will be imposed on other land owned by the Borough of West Mifflin. The specific lands to be released and the lands to be restricted are detailed in the bill, including descriptions of the tracts involved.
The bill outlines the legal framework for the exchange, including the necessary deed clauses to ensure that the newly restricted land is designated for recreation, conservation, and historical purposes as defined by the Project 70 Land Acquisition and Borrowing Act. Additionally, the conveyances will be subject to existing easements and rights of way. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
