CHAPTER 18

RIVERBED, LAKEBED, AND WATERFRONT LANDS
[Prior to 12/31/86, Conservation Commission[290] Ch 55]
571—18.1(461A) General. Table 1 and Table 2 are approved guidelines for the purpose of expediting the administration of applications for permit and use of land under the jurisdiction of the natural resource commission, excepting those lands leased for agricultural purposes, commercial concession agreements, and agreements covering the removal of sand, gravel, and other natural materials.
Fees for use of state-owned lands under the jurisdiction of the natural resource commission for agricultural purposes shall be determined by the usual “farm cropshare or lease agreement” depending on the crop, soil conditions, and other pertinent factors.
The fee for an area in which the primary use is to provide access, for the general public, from the river or lake to a commercial business may be determined by the noncommercial schedule, providing the renter does not offer any product for sale or collect any fees for services rendered on the state property.

When the area leased is larger than that designated by this table, the fee for each additional segment of 50′×100′ or any portion thereof shall be determined as follows:
A. The fee for increased depth shall be at the rate of $62.50 per segment (50′×100′) or any portion thereof.
B. The fee for additional frontage shall be proportionate to that indicated on the table.
C. In the case of industrial or commercial leases, the department shall determine the assessed valuation of other privately owned property used for similar purposes in association with the leased area or in the immediate vicinity. Using an average of assessed values, the department shall determine the likely assessed value of the area to be leased and multiply that value by 8 percent. The department shall charge the resulting value for the area to be leased unless that value is less than that set forth in the above table. In the event it is impractical to make such a determination, the department shall use the fees set forth in the table.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 461A.4 and 461A.25.

The above table shall be used to determine the annual permit and rental fees for noncommercial use, or use by nonprofit organizations, except irregular parcels of less than 5,000 square feet; in which case the natural resource commission may rent and permit limited development which is appropriate for the area and the annual fee shall be not less than $150 nor more than $300.
When the area leased is larger than that designated by this table, the fee for each additional segment of 50′×50′, or any portion thereof, shall be determined as follows:
A. The fee for increased depth shall be at the rate of $25 per segment (50′×50′) or any portion thereof.
B. The fee for additional frontage shall be proportionate to that indicated on the table.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 461A.4 and 461A.25.
571—18.4(461A) Other fees. When persons apply for permission to or have converted state property under the jurisdiction of the natural resource commission to personal use and the natural resource commission determines that leasing is an appropriate alternative to removal or that the above rates are not appropriate, the annual lease fee shall be determined by the natural resource commission. When determining the fee, the natural resource commission may consider availability of the property for public use, the type of personal use being made of the property, appraisal, effect on the natural resources and other items appropriate for the area involved.
In addition to the fees established in this rule, all leases shall be assessed a one-time charge of 18 percent to cover the department’s cost of inspecting lease sites, reviewing applications, preparing leases, and administering the lease program.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 461A.4 and 461A.25.
