    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GEOLOGY OF THE CRAIG QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By G. D. Eberlein, Michael Churkin, Jr., Claire Carter, H. C. Berg, and A. T. Ovenshine Open-File Report 83-91 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and strati graphic nomenclature Menlo Park, California 1983 Geology of the Craig Quadrangle, Alaska By G. D. Eberlein, Michael Churkin, Jr., Claire Carter, H. C. Berg, and A. T. Ovenshine Introduction This report consists of the following: 1) Geologic map (1:250,000) (Fig. 1); includes Figs. 2-4, index maps 2) Description of map units 3) Map showing key fossil and geochronology localities (Fig. 5) 4) Table listing key fossil collections 5) Correlation diagram showing Silurian and Lower Devonian facies changes in the northwestern part of the quadrangle (Fig. 6) 6) Sequence of Paleozoic restored cross sections within the Alexander terrane showing a history of upward shoaling volcanic-arc activity (Fig. 7). The Craig quadrangle contains parts of three northwest-trending tectonostratigraphic terranes (Berg and others, 1972, 1978). From southwest to northeast they are the Alexander terrane, the Gravina-Nutzotin belt, and the Taku terrane. The Alexander terrane of Paleozoic sedimentary and volcanic rocks, and Paleozoic and Mesozoic plutonic rocks, underlies the Prince of Wales Island region southwest of Clarence Strait. Supracrustal rocks of the Alexander terrane range in age from Early Ordovician into the Pennsylvanian, are unmetamorphosed and richly fossiliferous, and aopear to stratigraphically overlie pre-Middle Ordovician metamorphic rocks of the Wales Group (Eberlein and Churkin, 1970).

Executive Summary This report presents findings from a forest inventory conducted on 69,790 acres of state land in Southeast Alaska. Timber types were mapped on state land available for timber management in the Southeast State Forest, the Prince of Wales Island Area Plan, Prince of Wales Island Area Plan Amendment and the Central-Southern Southeast Area Plan. This inventory updates a draft report issued in 2011 by deleting lands identified for conveyance to the Wrangell Borough. The net timber base in the inventoried area is 44,196 acres and the annual allowable cut is estimated to be 11,200 thousand board feet (MBF) per year.

    Wrangell Island Analysis Report 1 Stikine Area United States Forest Service Wrangell Ranger District

    Wrangell Island Analysis Report Report Overview The purpose of this report is to solicit public review and comment and provide a context for future project decisions on National Forest lands on Wrangell Island over the next ten years. It presents an overview of public comments, resource conditions, and possible projects (roads and access management, timber harvest, recreation). This report describes Wrangell Island old growth reserves and other management prescriptions designated by the Forest Plan (TLMP). It describes wildlife travel corridors and recreation use across the island. It includes the results of a watershed analysis that identified sensitive watersheds and important fisheries on the island. Within this framework of Forest Plan prescriptions, resource conditions, and human use, an interdisciplinary team has suggested projects including: · Recreation trails and shelters. · Timber harvest proposals of one to five million board feet that avoid the most sensitive watersheds and allow consideration of scenery and wildlife values. · Road access management that considers wildlife and fisheries while maintaining access to potential timber sales and popular recreation sites. This report is organized as follows: · An introduction explaining why we wrote this report and how we intend to use it. · A summary of public comment and highlights of a Wrangell Island Analysis conducted by the 1997 Wrangell High School Environmental Sciences Class. · A summary of landscape design objectives from the Forest Plan. · Descriptions of the seven landscape

The proposals concern changes to the state’s fishing regulations submitted timely by members of the public, organizations, advisory committees, and ADF&G staff. Proposals are published essentially as received, with the exception of minor edits and removal of graphics and web links. If you submitted a proposal and find the published version does not reflect your intent, please contact Boards Support as soon as possible. COVID-19 Mitigation Plan. During its 2020/2021 meeting cycle, due to the COVID-19 global pandemic the board postponed its regulatory meetings to 2021/2022. As we move into the 2021/2022 meeting cycle, both the board and ADF&G intend to return to in-person meetings as identified in this book. However, at the time of this publication it is difficult to predict what complications related to COVID-19 will persist as we approach the meetings. Individuals wishing to attend in-person meetings are advised ADF&G will employ a COVID-19 mitigation plan that complies with the state and hosting community mitigation requirements. While the details of that plan remain to be finalized, it will allow for a range of mitigation measures depending on the status of COVID-19 in the state and meeting community.
