  • Alaska Native
    To conduct a simple search of the many GENERAL records of Alaska’ Native People in the National Archives Online Catalog use the search term Alaska Native. To search specific areas or villages see indexes and information below. Alaska Native Villages by Name A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Alaska is home to 229 federally recognized Alaska Native Villages located across a wide geographic area, whose records are as diverse as the people themselves. Customs, culture, artwork, and native language often differ dramatically from one community to another. Some are nestled within large communities while others are small and remote. Some are urbanized while others practice subsistence living. Still, there are fundamental relationships that have endured for thousands of years. One approach to understanding links between Alaska Native communities is to group them by language. This helps the student or researcher to locate related communities in a way not possible by other means. It also helps to define geographic areas in the huge expanse that is Alaska. For a map of Alaska Native language areas, see the generalized map of Alaska Native Language Areas produced by the University of Alaska at Fairbanks.

  • Calista Region Oil and Gas
    Hydrocarbon Potential of Calista Regional Corporation Lands Bethel Basin Holitna Basin Lower Yukon Delta Region by Petrotechnical Resources of Alaska, LLC. December, 1999 Calista Corporation Calista is one of 13 Alaska Regional Native Corporations formed in 1972 by the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA). Calista is the second largest ANCSA Corporation in terms of shareholders and land entitlement with 6.5 million acres of fee-simple land in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta and nearby mountainous terrain (Figure 1). One quarter of the villages in Alaska are located in the region and are characterized by Yupik and Cupik Eskimo and Athabascan cultures with subsistence life styles, no roads, few jobs and consequent poverty. Because the region has a history of gold, platinum and mercury production, Calista and local village corporation lands were selected on the basis of both subsistence and mineral resource potential. Calista’s primary goals are to preserve traditional cultural lifestyles while encouraging economic growth. The latter is measured in terms of shareholder and dependent jobs, and corporate revenues. Many of Calista peoples’ hopes are dependent on the success of the Donlin Creek Project, where a world class, 11.5 million-ounce gold resource has been delineated. For several years now, during advanced exploration on the project, Placer Dome has made substantial shareholder payrolls as high as $1 million per annum. Those jobs and corporate revenues from joint ventures between Calista and companies such as Boart Longyear and Chiulista-Global Services result in shareholder pride in holding good jobs and a newfound hope of autonomy and economic well-being.

    Board of Directors Take Key Actions (Story on page 2) REGIONAL COMMITTEE UPDATE Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta Regional Committee Votes to Improve Regional Nonprofit and Explore a Regional Tribal Government Highlights from 2014 (Story pages 4,5) © Ken Graham Photography.com Graham Ken © The Regional Committee seeks to gain a more powerful political voice in order to improve the socio-economic environment of the Region and its people. At its November gathering in Anchorage, the YK Delta Regional Committee unanimously supported making changes in regional governance. In a ballot vote, 76 percent of delegates also agreed to explore establishing a constitutional government and 58 percent of delegates supported trying to improve a regional nonprofit organization. There was significant agreement that a borough government for the Region should not be pursued. A governance convention is tentatively scheduled for March 2015 to discuss the two options, establishing a constitutional government and improving a regional nonprofit, more in depth and make a decision on what option to pursue. “Now is the time for us to move forward to strengthen our political voice. For us to improve the lives of our people, we need to unify as a Region. I am pleased that such a strong consensus exists to move forward with the governance convention,” said Nelson Angapak, a leader from the Region and facilitator for the Regional and Steering Committees.

  • Final EIS, Donlin Gold Project
    Donlin Gold Project Chapter 2: Alternatives Final Environmental Impact Statement CHAPTER 2: ALTERNATIVES 2.1 REGULATORY SETTING FOR ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS The Council on Environmental Quality’s (CEQ’s) regulations describe the alternatives section as the “heart of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)” and require exploration and evaluation of all reasonable alternatives (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 1502.14). CEQ further defines reasonable alternatives as “those that are practical or feasible from the technical and economic standpoint and using common sense” (CEQ 1981). National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) implementation procedures for the United States Army Corps of Engineers (the Corps) describe reasonable alternatives as those that are feasible, and then further specify that such feasibility must focus on the accomplishment of the underlying Purpose and Need (33 CFR Part 325, Appendix B). The Corps will follow the Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines (40 CFR Part 230) when evaluating the permit application from Donlin Gold, LLC (Donlin Gold). The 404(b)(1) Guidelines require examination of practicable alternatives to the proposed discharge (or action) and other factual determinations. An alternative is considered practicable “if it is available and capable of being done after taking into consideration cost, existing technology, and logistics in light of overall project purposes” (40 CFR 230.10). The Guidelines require that the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative (LEDPA) be determined for
