TITLE 30--MINERAL LANDS AND MINING
CHAPTER 2--MINERAL LANDS AND REGULATIONS IN GENERAL
Sec. 49d. Miners' regulations for recording notices in Alaska;
certain records legalized
Miners in any organized mining district may make rules and
regulations governing the recording of notices of location of mining
claims, water rights, flumes and ditches, mill sites and affidavits of
labor, not in conflict with this Act or the general laws of the United
States; and nothing in this Act shall be construed so as to prevent the
miners in any regularly organized mining district not within any
recording district established by the court from electing their own
mining recorder to act as such until a recorder therefor is appointed by
the court: Provided further, All records regularly made by the United
States commissioner prior to June 6, 1900, at Dyea, Skagway, and the
recorder at Douglas City, not in conflict with any records regularly
made with the United States commissioner at Juneau, are legalized. And
all records made in good faith prior to June 6, 1900, in any regularly
organized mining district are made public records.
