Project Description/Justification: The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), proposes to start the final step toward constructing access from Revillagigedo (Revilla) Island to Gravina Island in Southeast Alaska. It is intended to provide a roadway link from Ketchikan to Gravina Island across the Ralph M. Bartholomew Veterans' Memorial Bridges over two channels of Tongass Narrows. Pennock Island in the Narrows is also now accessible. The proposed Gravina Island Highway begins as the Airport Access Road at the Ketchikan International Airport parking lot on Gravina Island and extends south around the end of the present day runway and up the hill to an intersection with Gravina Island Highway and Lewis Reef Road.

This Guide is meant to complement and not replace the federal and state laws and regulations that govern maritime traffic on the Narrows. Prudent mariners should not rely on the Guide as their only source of information about vessel traffic patterns and safe navigation practices in Tongass Narrows, and should comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

  • Confirmed Breeding of the Greater Yellowlegs in Southern Southeast Alaska Andrew W
    NOTES CONFIRMED BREEDING OF THE GREATER YELLOWLEGS IN SOUTHERN SOUTHEAST ALASKA ANDREW W. PISTON, P. O. Box 1116, Ward Cove, Alaska 99928 STEVEN C. HEINL, P. O. Box 23101, Ketchikan, Alaska 99901 The known breeding range of the Greater Yellowlegs (Tringa melanoleuca) extends from Newfoundland, Labrador, and Nova Scotia west to east-central British Columbia and southern Alaska (AOU 1998). In Alaska, this species nests from Etolin and Kupre- anof islands in southeast Alaska north and west to Kodiak Island, the Alaska Peninsula, and the western Yukon River valley (Elphick and Tibbitts 1998). The breeding status of this species along the coast of northern British Columbia (Campbell et al. 1990) and southern southeast Alaska has not been determined (Elphick and Tibbitts 1998), primarily due to a lack of observers. In June 1909, Swarth (1911) reported seeing birds which he thought might be nesting on Duke Island, one of the southernmost islands in southeast Alaska, but he provided few details. Although the Greater Yellowlegs breeds in the central interior of British Columbia, Campbell et al. (1990) mentioned only one possible breeding record from coastal British Columbia, at Porcher Island, which they excluded because of a lack of evidence. Breeding records for Etolin and Kupreanof islands (Willett 1921, Gabrielson and Lincoln 1959), 150 km north of the U.S.–Canada border, are the southernmost ones published for southeast Alaska. Here we extend the confirmed breeding range of the Greater Yellowlegs into southernmost southeast Alaska to 54° 40' N latitude (Figure 1) and lend support to undocumented breeding reports from the adjacent coast of northwestern British Columbia.

  • A – Inventory of Existing Conditions
    A – Inventory of Existing Conditions Introduction. The Ketchikan International Airport (KTN) is in southeastern Alaska on Gravina Island, approximately one mile west of Ketchikan, Alaska. The Airport provides a safe operating environment for all classes of aircraft, including small general aviation aircraft, floatplanes, corporate business jets, and commercial service passenger aircraft and is an important asset for the region and the Ketchikan Borough. The Airport's relative location within the region is illustrated in Figure A1 and Figure A2. The Airport, including its aviation-related businesses and facilities, represents a significant regional economic asset. Additionally, the Airport also provides benefits for local businesses and industries, promotes tourism, and encourages further business development and expansion throughout the surrounding area. The last significant planning process for Ketchikan International Airport was an Airport Master Plan completed in 2003. Although the 2003 Airport Master Plan Update covered many topics including: airport access, new airport facilities, an apron expansion and completion of the parallel taxiway, this Terminal Area Plan focuses specifically upon the expansion of the passenger terminal building for KTN.

    Gravina Access Project Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement Chapter 3 Affected Environment This page intentionally left blank. Gravina Access Project Draft SEIS Affected Environment 3.0 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT This chapter inventories and characterizes the economic, environmental, and cultural resources in the Gravina Access Project area that could be affected by the proposed project alternatives. This information is drawn from the data, documents, and plans published by a variety of local, state, and governmental agencies, and project-specific technical studies completed by HDR Alaska, Inc., and its affiliates on behalf of DOT&PF, as listed in the References section. All figures referenced in this chapter may be found at the end of the chapter. 3.1 Land Use 3.1.1 Current Land Use This section describes the current land ownership, land uses, and zoning within the project area on Revillagigedo, Pennock, and Gravina islands. General land ownership within the project area is presented below in Table 3.1 and shown in Figure 3.1; land uses are listed in Table 3.2 and shown in Figure 3.2; and project area zoning is summarized in Table 3.3 and shown in Figure 3.3. Native lands in Alaska are typically held by regional and village Native corporations formed by the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act and are considered to be privately owned. Native Village Corporations have been making selections from federal lands over several decades, and some of these selections are still underway in Southeast Alaska. Native Village Corporations have also purchased commercial properties and run businesses in many communities, including Ketchikan.
