<br />Question:
<br />
<br />My land 1s only partially within the classified area of the river. \-Iould
<br />the easeo:ent cover all my property or only the classified area?
<br />
<br />Easements would only cover land within the classified area. The United
<br />States would have no legal control on land outside the River Hanagement

<br />
<br />If I should grant or sell a scenic easement to the United States, would

<br />If I sell an easement to the United States, how long would it last?

<br />and priorities change and 2~sement provisions are no longer in the

<br />How could the easement provisions be lifted?
