Draft Integrated Feasibility Report and Supplemental Environmental Assessment Port of Nome Modification Feasibility Study Nome, Alaska Prepared by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Alaska District December 2019 This page left blank intentionally. Port of Nome Modification Feasibility Study Draft Integrated Feasibility Report and Supplemental Environmental Assessment EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This General Investigations study is being conducted under authority granted by Section 204 of the Flood Control Act of 1948, which authorizes a study of the feasibility for development of navigation improvements in various harbors and rivers in Alaska. This study is also utilizing the authority of Section 2006 of WRDA, 2007, Remote and Subsistence Harbors, as modified by Section 2104 of the Water Resources Reform and Development Act of 2014 (WRRDA 2014) and further modified by Section 1105 of WRDA 2016. Section 2006 states that the Secretary may recommend a project without demonstrating that the improvements are justified solely by National Economic Development (NED) benefits, if the Secretary determines that the improvements meet specific criteria detailed in the authority. Additionally, Section 1202(c)(3) of WRDA 2016 “Additional Studies, Arctic Deep Draft Port Development Partnerships” allows for the consideration of transportation cost savings benefits to national security. The proposed port modifications intend to improve navigation efficiency to reduce the costs of commodities critical to the viability of communities in the region. This study has been cost-shared, with 50 % of the study funding provided by the non-Federal sponsor, which is the City of Nome, per the Federal Cost Share Agreement.

Moonlight Springs is located approximately 3 miles north of the Nome airport (see Figure 1). The City of Nome currently obtains water from three wells located in a fractured marble formation. The purpose of this technical memorandum is to define the protection area of the marble aquifer associated with the three drinking water wells and to identify potential activities that could impact the aquifer within the protection area. Prior to 2001, Nome obtained drinking water from a collection gallery located at Moonlight Springs.

  • Controls on Fishing Behavior on the Nome River
    CONTROLS ON FISHING BEHAVIOR ON THE NOME RIVER Jim Magdanz and Annie Olanna Technical Paper No. 102 Alaska Department of Fish and Game Division of Subsistence Nome, Alaska February 1984 ABSTRACT Very few chum salmon were observed escaping upriver to spawn in the Nome River in 1982 and 1983. Attempts to close a portion of the river to net fishing met strong opposition in 1980. The problem is how to effectively manage fishing without causing unnecessary hardship or disruption. The objectives of this study were (1) to describe the history of the Nome River fishery from earliest records (about 1880) through the present and (2) to -identify factors that control fishing behavior among Nome River fishers today. Special attention is given to ..= controls other than Fish and Game regulations; these controls were labeled "internal" controls. Before the gold rush to Nome in 1899, the Nome River was the site of a small, perhaps seasonal, settlement of Inupiat Eskimo. During the gold rush, the Inupiat were displaced by gold miners and the U.S. Army, (who built a fort at the river mouth). After the army closed Fort Davis in 1921 and mining slowed in the thirties, fishing and other subsistence activities again became the primary use of the river. During World War II, mining virtually ceased. Inupiat immigrants to Nome -- principally from the western Seward Peninsula -- established a camp at the mouth of the river on the site of old Fort Davis. Following statehood in 1959, commercial salmon fisheries began to develop in the area. The Nome subdistrict commercial salmon fishery, however, was quite small until 1974.

  • Grand Alaska: Nome & Gambell
    GRAND ALASKA: NOME & GAMBELL MAY 29–JUNE 8, 2021 Bluethroat (male), Teller Road, Nome, AK (© Kevin J. Zimmer) LEADER: KEVIN ZIMMER LIST COMPILED BY: KEVIN ZIMMER VICTOR EMANUEL NATURE TOURS, INC. 2525 WALLINGWOOD DRIVE, SUITE 1003 AUSTIN, TEXAS 78746 WWW.VENTBIRD.COM GRAND ALASKA: NOME & GAMBELL MAY 29–JUNE 8, 2021 By Kevin Zimmer Long-tailed Jaeger, Gambell, AK (© Kevin J. Zimmer) Following a most enjoyable Kenai Peninsula & Anchorage Pre-Trip that netted a wealth of boreal forest breeders, nesting seabirds, and special mammals, we convened our full group in Anchorage, and then headed north to Nome the next morning to kick off the Nome & Gambell tour. There is probably no North American tour that I more eagerly look forward to than this one, even after more than 30 years of doing this combo (Nome + Gambell) in one incarnation or another. The promise of numerous iconic Alaskan tundra-breeding specialties, combined with the very real potential for multiple Asiatic vagrants—not to mention some glamour mammals—and spectacular scenery and tundra wildflowers, all make for an exciting birding adventure with more than a bit of a wilderness feel to it. www.ventbird.com 2 Grand Alaska: Nome & Gambell, 2021 The stretch of the Council Road that skirts the coastline of Norton Sound from the Nome River mouth, around Cape Nome, and on to Solomon is always the most dynamic place for birding in the Nome region, and seldom fails to deliver something good or unexpected. Our first afternoon drive provided the expected introduction to many of Nome’s tundra breeders, as well as to many of the regular spring migrants.
