North Dakota § 55-11-13

• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 55: State Historical Society and State Parks
• Ch. 55-11: Nature Preserves

Text

Nothing contained in this chapter may be construed as interfering with the purposes stated
in the establishment of or pertaining to any state or local park, preserve, wildlife refuge, or other
area, or the proper management and development thereof, except that any agency
administering a natural area dedicated as a nature preserve under the provisions of this chapter
is responsible for preserving the character of the natural area in accordance with the articles of
dedication and the applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto established by the
department from time to time. Neither the dedication of a natural area as a nature preserve nor
any action taken by the department under any of the provisions of this chapter voids or replaces
any protective status under law which the natural area would have if it were not a nature
preserve, and the protection provisions of this chapter are supplemental thereto. Under the
provisions of this chapter, the department may not have or use the right of eminent domain.
