- Description:
- The document discusses the issue of the width of right-of-way for farm-to-market roads and explains that there are no federal regulations setting a minimum width. The decision on right-of-way width is left to the state highway department and local authorities, with federal approval required. The document advises the recipient to address the issue with the Oklahoma State Highway Commission in order to seek relief. The document also mentions a petition from residents in Chelsea, Oklahoma, expressing opposition to the alleged requirement of an 80-foot right-of-way for roads. The congressman promises to investigate and provide further information.
