  • Ecosystem-Based Chinook Salmon, Oncorhynchus
    Ecosystem-based Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha Management Plan of the Susitna River Drainage Authors: William Middleton (primary contact), Allison Thomason, Ashley Williams, Abraham Meyer, David Pomelow Coach: Roger R. Saft, Ph.D. Assistant Coach: Wendy Garrett [email protected] Aurelia Wasilla High School 701 East Bogard Road Wasilla, Alaska 99654 Abstract The fishery is Susitna River chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) fishery on the Northern Cook Inlet. It is the largest in size of all Pacific salmon species. Management of the fish, like any other natural resource in the state of Alaska, is controlled by the Alaska constitution. The requirement is to manage to achieve maximum benefit to the citizens of the state and to preserve the species by establishing and maintaining maximum sustained yield. Present to a lesser extent in the Susitna River drainage is the coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) are a major contributor to the fisheries of the Upper Cook Inlet and the Susitna River system tributaries. Burbot (Lota lota) are a fish species present not of commercial significance. Present also in the Susitna River basin is the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). It is not managed for commercial harvest. Also inhabiting the drainage without commercial significance are Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus). The Susitna River chinook salmon fishery is one of the largest fisheries in Alaska and provides much of the world with salmon. It brings a large amount of revenue for the state and its citizens. Because of the large amount of fish and for the enjoyment, many sport fishermen go out and by fishing supplies and licenses so as to ensure that they catch a trophy fish.

  • Introduc Tion
    1 INTRODUCTION SHIP CREEK FRAMEWORK PLAN INTRODUCTION This Framework Plan proposes a long-term vision for the future evolution of the Ship Creek area of Anchorage, including downtown Anchorage and the Cook Inlet waterfront. In its 100 year history the Municipality of Anchorage has evolved from a tent city to a major metropolitan center and transportation hub on the Pacific rim. This Plan will guide future development of the original site of Anchorage, Ship Creek for the next century of growth and evolution, and when fully implemented will create something that Anchorage has never had: A truly accessible and public waterfront. Anchorage is the only major US city on a large body of water without such a waterfront, and given the spectacular natural setting that Anchorage enjoys and the immediate access to its surrounding natural areas, giving the public an attractive and accessible Cook Inlet waterfront this is the logical next step in the city’s development. As newer generations of Americans migrate back to our cities’ centers seeking a more urban and sustainable lifestyle, this waterfront will add tremendous value to Anchorage’s downtown, Anchorage aerial photograph further stimulating investment and development. 2. The economy is strengthening. Recovery from the “great What do people want? The Framework Plan shares many of the same goals and makes many recession” is underway. The Alaskan economy is growing, This Ship Creek Framework Plan is the result of hundreds of hours of of the same recommendations as the 1991 Ship Creek/Waterfront Land unemployment is down and the energy sector is expanding in stakeholder involvement over a six month period.
