  • The Reindeer Industry in Alaska
    THEREINDEER INDUSTRY IN ALASKA By MargaretLantis EBRUARY 191 6 at Igloo in the region of Nome was a hopeful time. F Eskimo owners of reindeer herds and apprentice herders had come here from all northwest Alaska to attend a Reindeer Fair. This was not the first Reindeer Fair sponsored by the U.S. Bureau of Education. But that year the Fair was much more impressive, with representatives of ten villages competing in many contests: fastest sled deer, strongest deer, best trained deer for driving, most skilful lassoer who could catch and break a bull to drive most quickly, herdsman who could butcher and dress a carcass cleanest and fastest, and sledlashing forthe trail. Therewere other contests: composing a song about reindeer, shooting with bow and arrow and with rifle, snowshoe racing, and other sports. Sleds,harness, clothing also were judged.’ The competitive emphasis on skill, the show- ing-off of fur clothing and other fine homemade possessions, the resource- fulness displayed in long travel by reindeer sled across strange country to reach Igloo-all fitted into the Eskimo system of individual prestige. These Reindeer Fairs are a symbol of the high point in satisfaction obtained from Eskimo ownership of reindeer. However, elements of the anticlimax were already present. In 1914, a white family had formed a company for commercial development of IForrest, 291-296 (see references p. 44). 27 28 ARCTIC VOL. 3, NO.

Past surveys varied by time of year, survey platform, and survey effort and resulted in variable estimates. This survey was completed August 26-28, 2009 under acceptable weather conditions. A Cessna 206 aircraft with two observers was used as the survey platform.

  • Alaska OCS Socioeconomic Studies Program: Literature Survey
    The United States Department of the Interior was designated by the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lands Act of 1953 to carry out the majority of the Act’s provisions for administering the mineral leasing and develop- ment of off-shore areas of the United States under federal jurisdiction. Within the Department, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has the responsibility to meet requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) as well as other legislation and regulations dealing with the effects of off-shore development. In Alaska, unique cultural differences and climatic conditions create a need for developing addi- tional socioeconomic and environmental information to improve OCS decision making at all governmental levels. In fulfillment of its federal responsibilities and with an awareness of these additional information needs, the BL14 has initiated several investigative programs, one of which is the Alaska OCS Socioeconomic Studies Program. The Alaska OCS Socioeconomic Studies Program is a multi-year research effort which attempts to predict and evaluate the effects of Alaska OCS Petroleum Development upon the physical, social, and economic environ- ments within the state. The analysis addresses the differing effects among various geographic units: the State of Alaska as a whole, the several regions within which oil and gas development is likely to take place, and within these regions, the local communities. The overall research method is multidisciplinary in nature and is based on the preparation of three research components. In the first research component, the internal nature. structure, and essential processes of these various geographic units and interactions among them are documented.

Center for Biological Diversity Submitted on the 5th of March 2009 The Center for Biological Diversity (“Center”) formally request that the Commissioner list the Kittlitz’s murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris) as an endangered species under the Alaska Endangered Species Act, AS §§ 16.20.180 - 210. This petition is filed in accordance with AS § 44.62.220. The best available scientific data documents that the Kittlitz’s murrelet is a species whose “numbers have decreased to such an extent as to indicate that its continued existence is threatened,” and that the Commissioner must therefore determine that it is an endangered species pursuant to AS § 16.20.190. The Center therefore formally request, pursuant to AS § 44.62.220, that the Commissioner publish regulations that declare the Kittlitz’s murrelet to be an endangered species and add it to the list of species published at 5 AAC § 93.020. Under AS § 44.62.230, the Commissioner must, within 30 days of the day of this petition, either deny the petition in writing, or schedule a public hearing on the requested action under AS §§ 44.62.190 – 44.62.215.

  • Northern Bering Sea: Food Security
    Northern Bering Sea and Bering Strait Food Security For thousands of years the coastal Yupik and Inupiaq peoples of the northern Bering Sea and Bering Strait have relied on marine mammals, seabirds, fish, shellfish, and other marine- based resources for food. Hunting and fishing bind people to the sea, and tie families and communities together through the sharing of food and passing of knowledge and experience from one generation to the next. Bering Sea Elders Group is an association of elders appointed by 39 participating tribes from the Kuskokwim Bay to the Bering Strait. Our mission is to speak and work together as one voice to protect and respect our traditional ways of life, the ocean web of life that supports the resources we rely on, and our children’s future. The Elders Group serves as a messenger to our children, tribal councils, and government decision-makers. This report was made possible thanks to current and past efforts of elders and hunters, who have shared their words and perspectives to help others understand the way of life of indigenous peoples in the northern Bering Sea and Bering Strait region. Front cover photo: Anchorage Museum Ward Wells Collection B83.91.S4706.110 This page: James Barker James Barker James Harvesting healthy, wild resources from ancestral hunting grounds is a component of food security, together with other inter-dependent social and cultural dimensions, including the right to apply indigenous knowledge systems and play a central role in decisions that form marine policy in the region.1 Villages in the northern Bering Sea and Bering Strait region also depend on local small-scale commercial fisheries for salmon, crab, herring, and halibut.

Box 346, Bethel, Alaska 99559 ABSTRACT: The Alaska breedingpopulation of the Steller'sEider (Polysticta stelleri) occursas two subpopulations,one on the Arctic coastalplain of northern Alaska,primarily near Barrow,and the other on the Yukon-KuskokwimDelta of western Alaska. In 1997, the Alaska breedingpopulation was listed under the EndangeredSpecies Act as threatenedbecause the nestingrange and population were thoughtto have decreasedsubstantially. The historical(pre-1970) and recent (1970-present)breeding distribution and abundanceof Steller'sEiders, however, are not well known. We compiledand evaluatedthe historicaland recent recordsof breeding-seasondistribution, confirmed nesting for northernand western Alaska, and foundthat the overallsizes of the breedingranges have not changedsubstantially; however, the frequencyof breeding has decreasedin both regions, except near Barrow.Causes of thisreduction in breedingfrequency of Steller'sEiders in Alaskaare unknown,but
