Approval does not grant access, authorize trespass, or supersede property rights. Additional procedures may be required to comply with other governing state statute, federal law, federal regulation, or local ordinance.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
