The Bridge Inventory Report Prepared by STATE OF ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND PUBLIC FACILITIES BRIDGE SECTION P.O. BOX 112500 3132 CHANNEL DRIVE JUNEAU, ALASKA 99811-2500 About the Cover Susitna River Denali Highway The Susitna River Bridge (number 0687) is a 1,039 ft long structure built in 1956. This bridge is constructed of a 90 ft long steel stringer approach span at the west end, a 165 ft long steel deck truss, fifteen steel stringer spans at the east and a laminated timber deck throughout. Alaska’s Denali Highway is a seasonal, mostly gravel corridor that connects the George Parks Highway (west at Cantwell) with the Richardson Highway (east at Paxson). When it opened in 1957, the highway provided the original access into the Denali National Park. Michael C. Higgs, Bridge Engineer with the Alaska Department of Transportation’s Bridge Section, masterfully created this overlaid pen and ink rendering. Mr. Higgs’ hand drawings have graced many previous Bridge Inventory covers. v INTRODUCTION This bridge inventory report is a periodic publication by the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, Bridge Section. Summarized within are structural, dimensional, and location data of bridges and culverts that are biennially inspected by the Bridge Section. Other bridge structures are included for reference and informational purposes. Dimensions, clearances and postings are applicable at the time of publication, only. An electronic copy is available online at www.dot.alaska.gov/bridge-inventory. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS About the Cover

  • Notice of Adjustments to Service Obligations
    Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020.

A_Rl/JS Ala:-k:-_ k _-. ,,,-v,·~ Library(;,; 'u~;.,-,,, ;.,, .:.:vices AnL:t: :~ · ._ ,.,._a ABSTRACT This study evaluated summer habitat utilization of fishes and the effects of floodplain developments on fish and aquatic habitat in the glacially-fed Tanana River near Fairbanks, Alaska. Aquatic habitats were quantitatively described on the basis of water velocity, depth, and .. clarity, and substrate, cover and vegetation. Lake chub and longnose sucker were abundant in all habitats. Whitefishes, juvenile salmon, and northern pike were captured most frequently in areas with high water clarity. Burbot preferred deeper, turbid waters. Young-of-the-year of lake chub and longnose sucker preferred shallow, silty backwaters; juvenile lake chub demonstrated no habitat preferences; and adult lake chub, juvenile longnose sucker, and juvenile/adult slimy sculpin preferred gravel riffles. Bank stabilization activities have significantly modified aquatic habitat and fish communities of Tanana River backwaters. In general, free-flowing sidechannels have become blocked-off sloughs resulting in reduced turbidities and lower flows. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS \ Page ABSTRACT. • . 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS............................................... 4 LIST OF FIGURES................................................
