Personal Use Gravel Permits

Gravel and firewood are offered for sale by permit for non-commercial use.  The gravel and firewood harvested under a personal use permit may not be offered for sale, barter, or trade.  Gravel and firewood areas are only available while supplies last.

It is incumbent upon the buyer to field check the area before paying for a permit. All resources must be obtained by the purchaser. No Borough equipment is available on site. Up to 100 cubic yards of personal use gravel per household per year is available by permit.  Personal Use Gravel areas, listed here, are flagged, signed, and open.  Permits are available online and at the Land Management office located at the DSJ Building, 350 E. Dahlia Ave. Palmer, from 8am-5pm, Monday-Friday.  Please see the eCommerce page for more information on specific sites.

Interested parties are encouraged to contact the Natural Resource Manager to discuss the possibility of opening additional personal use gravel sites on Borough-owned land. Referencing the tax ID of a parcel is often the quickest way to orient Land Management Staff to the location of interest.  Limitations for future personal use gravel sites include a general prohibition on leaving holes in Borough-owned land, ensuring existing road access can withstand traffic generated by the activity, as well concerns regarding the activities impacts on surrounding property owners.
