    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

    SARAH PALIN, GOVERNOR 410 Willoughby Avenue, Suite 303 Post Office Box 111800 DEPT. OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION Juneau, Alaska 99811-1800 OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER Phone: 907-465-5066 Fax: 907-465-5070 www.dec.state.ak.us October 20, 2008 Elin Miller, Regional Administrator U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 10 1200 Sixth Avenue, Suite 900 Mail Code: RA-140 Seattle, WA 98101-3140 Dear Ms. Miller: The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) has reviewed your th August 18 letter regarding EPA’s PM2.5 designations for Alaska and the nonattainment boundaries for the communities of Fairbanks and Juneau. We have carefully considered the available data and analyses. ADEC believes the available scientific evidence does not support EPA’s boundary recommendations which substantially expand upon those recommended by us. ADEC believes public health will be protected and the applicable legal requirements met by taking the actions described in this letter, which include a proposed nonattainment boundary for the Fairbanks area that is larger than originally proposed by ADEC, but smaller than proposed by EPA. For Juneau, we are requesting EPA revisit certain assumptions and include data from 2008 before making a final decision on whether a nonattainment designation is warranted, and if so, the appropriate boundaries of the nonattainment area. Protecting public health is a goal we share with EPA. As you are already aware, we are proactively and expeditiously working with the local governments to address identified PM2.5 concerns in Fairbanks and Juneau. To this end, ADEC does not believe EPA’s proposed boundaries will ultimately assist in protecting public health.

  • Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy
    Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy Management Plan February 2016 Cover artwork: Wayne Carlick Foreword Tlingit Elders teach their people to work respectfully with all those who come to Taku River Tlingit traditional territory, to find ways to work together with respect and harmony. This conservancy management plan is part of the on-going collaboration between the Taku River Tlingit First Nation and the Province of British Columbia to sustainably manage the lands and resources of Tlingit territory through mutual respect and understanding. Wóoshtin wudidaa (the Atlin Taku Land Use Plan) set the stage for the Tlingit vision for a connected network of protected areas to be realized. These protected areas were identified to: protect important Tlingit cultural sites and landscapes; ensure continuation of Tlingit khustiyxh (way of life); sustain biological diversity and important wildlife habitats; and protect landscapes and places of importance for recreation and tourism. The Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy is an important part of Tlingit Tlatsini – the network of “places that make us strong.” We invite you to read and understand the importance of this place to the Tlingit people, and to others who make this region their home. We also invite you to explore and enjoy Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy, and take part in conserving and protecting its resources for future generations. Gunalcheesh / Thank you with respect i ii Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy Management Plan Approved by: February 1st, 2016 ______________________________

    The Mountaineer The Mountaineer 1969 Cover Photo: Mount Shuksan, near north boundary North Cascades National Park-Lee Mann Entered as second-class matter, April 8, 1922, at Post Office, Seattle, Wash., under the Act of March 3, 1879. Published monthly and semi-monthly during June by The Mountaineers, P.O. Box 122, Seattle, Washington 98111. Clubroom is at 7191h Pike Street, Seattle. Subscription price monthly Bulletin and Annual, $5.00 per year. EDITORIAL STAFF: Alice Thorn, editor; Loretta Slat­ er, Betty Manning. Material and photographs should be submitted to The Mountaineers, at above address, before Novem­ ber 1, 1969, for consideration. Photographs should be black and white glossy prints, 5x7, with caption and photographer's name on back. Manuscripts should be typed double-spaced and include writer's name, address and phone number. foreword Since the North Cascades National Park was indubi­ tably the event of this past year, this issue of The Mountaineer attempts to record aspects of that event. Many other magazines and groups have celebrated by now, of course, but hopefully we have managed to avoid total redundancy. Probably there will be few outward signs of the new management in the park this summer. A great deal of thinking and planning is in progress as the Park Serv­ ice shapes its policies and plans developments. The North Cross-State highway, while accessible by four­ wheel vehicle, is by no means fully open to the public yet. So, visitors and hikers are unlikely to "see" the changeover to park status right away. But the first articles in this annual reveal both the thinking and work which led to the park, and the think­ ing which must now be done about how the park is to be used.
