Release of the Lower Kuskokwim Site Specific Plan Public Review Draft Public Comment Period Open April 19, 2024 through May 20, 2024
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has released the Lower Kuskokwim Site Specific Plan (LKSSP) Public Review Draft (PRD) for public review and comment. Following a 30-day public review period, which may result in changes to the PRD, the planning team will review the comments and prepare an Issue Response Summary (IRS). The IRS provides a summary of issues raised during the comment period, a response to those issues, and a list of recommended revisions to the plan. The PRD and the IRS will be made available for public review. Once adopted, this plan will serve as the basis for the management of state-owned tide and submerged lands within the planning area.
The LKSSP proposes to classify approximately 426,700 acres of state-owned tide, submerged, and shorelands in the Lower Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta as Wildlife Habitat and Public Recreation Land, and Waterfront Development Land. The plan boundary extends from Akiak in the northeast, west to Nunapitchuk and south to the 3-mile limit of Kuskokwim Bay where it abuts the northwest corner of the Bristol Bay Area plan above Quinhagak. The planning area is within the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, and includes the communities of Akiak, Kwethluk, Bethel, Nunapitchuk, Napakiak, Napaskiak, Oscarville, Eek, and Tuntuliak.
The Public Comment Period is open from April 19, 2024 through May 20, 2024. Comments may be submitted by email to dnr.rads.ssp@alaska.gov , fax at 907-269-8915, or mailed to the following address:
