    Fox spring public comments Below are the comments received through the close of the public comment period at 4:30 p.m. July 15, 2015. Names, addresses, and contact information has been omitted. Comments received at the July 6, 2015, public meeting Online open house comments from https://adotpf.mysidewalk.com/ The only comment I have is that many of us depend on this spring for water. Filling our drinking water jugs in Fairbanks is costly over time. Whoever you transfer to, we need that water source. It's not a spring anymore, so it's not a natural source. I haul water and pay for my own and I don't feel it's the government's responsibility to furnish it to me, just like they don't pay my fuel or electric bills. The state should sell this or completely close it and spend the money on more essential services. The DOT needs to sell it. The responsibility of the DOT is to maintain roads, not provide water to individuals. With State budgets shrinking, I'd rather see the 50K used to keep the roads open and safe than subsidizing water for people. Privatizing the Fox Spring will not result in individuals being unable to afford drinking water. I personally haul water from the Water Wagon and it is very affordable, two cents a gallon. I imagine that whoever purchases the Spring from the DOT would charge a similar amount. The Fox Spring water is the best tasting drinking water in town. I would definitely be willing to pay for the water.

Available at: https://scholarworks.alaska.edu/handle/11122/8360 CHAPTER 10 Federal Influences and Intergovernmental Relations: Constraints, Conflicts, and Benefits Clive S. Thomas and Michael L. Boyer Much of what Alaska’s state government does, and much of what it is unable to do, are influenced by other governments, particularly the federal government. Local governments across the state, as well as Alaska Native governments, also play a role. Consequently, the character of Alaska politics, the political issues that arise, and the day-to-day operations of state government are, in significant ways, a product of these ongoing relations with other governments. Issues such as the opening of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) for oil and gas development, subsistence hunting and fishing rights, commer- cial and sports fishing, the funding and delivery of K–12 education, aspects of health and welfare, economic development, and transportation policies, among many others, involve some form of intergovernmental relations (IGR).

On the Yukon, fall chums have come in stronger than fishermen had dared to hope. In the False Pass Unimak fishery the chum cap was partly respon­ sible for the fishermen only cat­ ching about one third of the original June sockeye quota. The chum cap was instituted as a partial remedy for the dwindl­ ing fall chum run on the Yukon River. At a very long and angry Board of Fisheries meeting last November, Yukon River fishermen testified that the State should stop the interception of their stocks at False Pass. Sup­ ported by Fish and Game data, the fishermen claimed that Yukon bound chum salmon are intercepted at False Pass on the way to the River. The Board ac­ ceded to the extent of placing a cap of 400,000 fish on the number of chums the False Pass fishermen could take in June.

INTRODUCTION The most difficult thing to comprehend about Alaska is its size. The State of Alaska is 375 million acres; over one-fifth the size of the remaining forty-nine states.· In contrast, the population of Alaska is small, only 407,000 people. 2 This amounts to one person per 833.33 acres.3 This tremendous extreme in population and size makes Alaska unique among the states.4 While most of the people live in either Fairbanks or Anchorage, I most Alaskan towns evoke comparisons with the Old West. With its vast tracts of virgin land and small isolated towns, the state is the last remnant of 19th Cen­ tury frontier America.' In small outposts, "pioneers" live in small, handmade log cabins heated by a fireplace or a wood burning stove and lighted by kerosene lamps.7 The people have no electricity, no * Staff Member, BOSTON COLLEGE ENVIRONMENTAL AFFAIRS LAW REVIEW I HAMMOND ALMANAC, INc., THE 1979 HAMMOND ALMANAC 355 (1978).
