Section 7. Penn Forest Township, Carbon County.
(a) Authorization.--Pursuant to the requirements of section 20(b) of the act of June 22, 1964 (Sp.Sess., P.L.131, No.8), known as the Project 70 Land Acquisition and Borrowing Act, the General Assembly hereby authorizes the release of Project 70 restrictions on a portion of lands owned by the Lehighton Water Authority, which are more particularly described in subsection (c). This release of Project 70 restrictions is in consideration of the fact that records indicate that the land described in subsection (c) is to provide a right-of-way access that was inadvertently not provided at the time of the Project 70 acquisition.
(b) Freedom of restrictions.--The lands described in subsection (c) shall be free of restrictions on use and alienation imposed by the Project 70 Land Acquisition and Borrowing Act.
(c) Land to be released from restrictions.--The section of the land to be released from Project 70 restrictions is situated in the Township of Penn Forest, Carbon County, and more particularly described as follows:
