Nov-Dec DCC NEWS is available online

December 31, 2013September 1, 2019 Nancy

If you have not received a paper copy of the DCC News, you may click the link below for our Nov-Dec 2013 issue. A full 16 pages, it covers a number of issues that affect both Denali National Park and the lands and governments at the park’s gateway.

For example, Barbara Brease writes a detailed article on recent proposals to protect Denali’s wolves in response to their very low numbers inside the park, Charlie Loeb revisits the unresolved issue of snowmachine use in the park additions, and Brian Okonek warns that planning for the proposed South Denali Visitor Center complex is not keeping up with construction.

These and many more articles are included, plus thanks to our latest new and renewed members (more donations have arrived since then and will be announced in our Jan-Feb 2014 DCC News).

It is driven partly by the inadequacies of current airstrips in Healy and elsewhere, but partly by Doyon's interest in a regional airport that could land jets flying direct from the Lower 48.The press release for the meeting includes a Zoom link for joining remotely: aws.state.ak.us/OnlinePublicNotices/Notices/View.aspx?id=214636The project website is at: dot.alaska.gov/nreg/denaliairportstudy/ ...
