Predigts Law 10 Charge For Land Taken From River
Sand operators in Iowa may face a new law detailing their operation extent and state payments into the conservation fund or treasury for land and travel rights on streams. A 3 cent per ton levy is due, with exceptions for public improvements, to take effect until Feb 1 1925. Some lawmakers seek higher fees while others object, citing public benefit via flood control. The measure likely mirrors the prior levee and drainage exemption.
