This was as basic of a ROW mapping project as you can get. My role was research, title, legal descriptions and plan review. The bulk of the project, the mapping and parcel plats, was performed by another R&M senior land surveyor. When I say this was a basic project, that is because most ROW plan projects typically start with an intensive base mapping phase where the existing property lines, existing rights-of-way, easements and other title interests are located. From that point, the effort is to define what additional ROW will be required to construct the project. But this was an entirely new road and not an existing one that was to be widened or re-aligned. Given its location on a coastal spit, this new evacuation road would provide Kivalina residents with a reliable evacuation route in the event of a catastrophic storm or ocean surge.
The 7.7 mile long project commences at the Kivalina airport and proceeds northeasterly through lands owned by Nana Regional Corporation to higher ground. Land status issues included an evaluation of RS-2477 rights-of-way, ANCSA 17(b) easements, potential conflicts with the Maritime National Wildlife Refuge boundaries, DNR managed navigable waters and platting obligations.
This project provides a good outline of the basic elements that go into a DOT&PF right-of-way mapping project.
The road construction was substantially complete in October of 2020. The final platting for the new ROW and the final ROW acquisition documents are still pending.
