Water Resources Information and Issues Overview Report, Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alagnak Wild River. Natural Resource Technical Report NPS/NRPC/WRD/NRTR—2007/057. National Park Service, Fort Collins, Colorado. NPS D-112, October 2007 Dedication Completion of this report was only possible through the diligent efforts of those who came before. There are many who contributed to our knowledge and expanded our appreciation for the value of water resources in Katmai, and we express our appreciation for their efforts. Above all, one scientist and her work will be remembered by many. Jacqueline LaPerriere was a gifted scientist and blessed with the ability to convey her enthusiasm for limnology to those she came in contact with. Without her contributions, dedication and love for science we wouldn’t have the understanding and appreciation of water that we do. It was with great sadness that we lost Jackie to cancer in 1997. But her smile, vivacious personality and dedication to her work will be remembered by all who met her. This report is intended to carry on her work and is dedicated to her memory. Jacqueline D.

  • 25. Recreation
    Recreation—Bristol Bay Drainages 25. RECREATION 25.1 Introduction The recreation study inventoried, described, quantified, and mapped the outdoor recreational resources and activities in the Bristol Bay drainages study areas (Figure 25-1). The study objectives were as follows: • Describe the location, use, and management status of important recreational resources in the study areas. • Describe, quantify, and map the location of recreational activities. • Estimate the economic contribution of recreation to the economy in the study areas. A regional study area and a central study area were defined in the Bristol Bay drainages for the recreation baseline study (Figure 25-1). The regional study area comprises three overlapping study areas: land use, big game hunting, and sportfishing. The regional study area was flexibly defined to fit the geographic databases for different recreational resources, activities, and management regimes. The central study area encompasses the local drainage areas in the immediate vicinity of the Pebble Deposit and along the northeastern extent of Iliamna Lake (the central study area coincides with the mine study area, transportation-corridor study area, and Iliamna Lake study area depicted on Figure 1-4 in Chapter 1). The study area boundaries for land use, big game hunting, and sportfishing were defined as follows: • The land use study area encompasses about 22,526 square miles. Its boundary is based on the State of Alaska’s 2005 Bristol Bay Area Plan for State Lands (ADNR, 2005a) and Nushagak and Mulchatna Rivers Recreation Management Plan (ADNR, 2005b), and the boundaries of the Katmai and Lake Clark national parks and preserves. • The sportfishing study area encompasses an estimated 26,233 square miles.

Report #4 Compiled by George Pappas - (907) 786-3822, [email protected] Office of Subsistence Management, USFWS. The purpose of the weekly fisheries update is to provide the reader with an overall summary of the status of subsistence related fisheries throughout the state of Alaska. The target audience is the Federal Subsistence Board and its Staff Committee. The report was compiled with the assistance of the Federal in-season managers and OSM staff that provided weekly updated information by the close of business on Friday of the reporting week. My goal is to have the report sent by the close of business the following Monday. Web links have been included to provide additional information. You may obtain additional information on a fishery of particular interest by contacting the in-season manager, provided contacts, follow the provided web links, or contact me.
