Office of Coast Survey – Nautical Chart Catalog June 2014 Alaska Index (AK) www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/catalog AK15 ALASKA AK5 AK4 AK8 AK10 AK3 AK2 AK6 AK7 AK1 AK9 AK14 AK13 AK12 AK11 Color Key for Charts Type of Chart Scale Purpose HARBOR CHARTS 1:50,000 and larger For navigation and anchorage in harbors and small waterways. (outlined in red) SMALL-CRAFT CHARTS 1:80,000 and larger Specially designed charts with small craft information. (outlined in green) COAST CHARTS 1:50,001 to 1:150,000 For coastwise navigation inside the offshore reefs and shoals, entering bays (outlined in blue) and harbors of considerable size, and navigating certain inland waterways. GENERAL CHARTS 1:150,001 to 1:600,000 For use when a vessel’s course is offshore but when its position can be fixed (outlined in purple) by landmarks, lights, buoys, and characteristic soundings. SAILING CHARTS 1:600,001 and smaller Plotting charts used for offshore sailing between distant coastal ports and for (outlined in purple) approaching the coast from the open ocean. The scale of a chart is the ratio of a given distance on the chart to the actual distance that it represents on the earth. (Example: One unit of measurement on a 1:10,000 scale chart is equal to 10,000 of the same unit on the earth’s surface.) Large-scale charts show greater detail of a relatively small area. Small-scale charts show less detail, but cover a larger area. Certain hydrographic information may be omitted on smaller-scale charts. Mariners should always obtain the largest-scale coverage for near shore navigation.

  • Chapter 2 Darkness

    Chapter 2 Darkness

    Chapter 2 Darkness f all the disconcerting statements in Veniaminov’s great work on the eastern Aleutians—and there are several—few are O more arresting than his assertion that elderly Unanga{ told of famous shamans who, long before the first Russians appeared, said white people would arrive from the sea and afterwards all Unanga{ would come to resemble them and would adopt their customs. These elders also reported that at the time of the Russian arrival the shamans began prophesizing that “in the east, over their islands,” they saw “a brilliant dawn or a great light” inhabited by “many people resembling the newcomers, while in the lower world, of the people whom they had seen there before, very few remained” and “impenetrable darkness set in.”1 This darkness surrounds the earliest history of Biorka, Kashega, and Makushin. Nick Galaktionoff joked that when people asked him where Aleuts came from, he would tell them, “Tomorrow I come from Makushin!” By “tomorrow” he meant “yesterday” or “that time before.” “I was right,” he laughed, “‘cause I was born there.”2 And yet Nick had an older origin story that began when Unanga{ lived on the mainland, a time when ice covered much of the coastline.3 Food became scarce and animals began preying on villages, taking food and attacking people. The chiefs spoke with their people and explained that they would have to go across the ice. They covered the bottoms of their open skin boats with seal skin that still had the fur on it, and this smooth surface allowed the heavily laden boats to be towed.

    Preliminary Reconnaissance Geologic Map of the Petersburg and Parts of the Port Alexander and Sumdum 1:250,000 Quadrangles, Southeastern Alaska

    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Preliminary reconnaissance geologic map of the Petersburg and parts of the Port Alexander and Sumdum 1:250,000 quadrangles, southeastern Alaska By David A. Brew , A. Thomas Ovenshine , Susan M. Karl , and Susan J. Hunt* Open-File Report 84-405 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S Geological Survey editorial standards and strati graphic nomenclature. *Menlo Park, California ^Reston, Virginia ^Anchorage, Alaska Preliminary reconnaissance geologic map of the Petersburg and parts of the Port Alexander and Sumdum 1:250,000 quadrangles, southeastern Alaska By David A. Brew, A. T. Ovenshine, Susan M. Karl, and Susan J. Hunt INTRODUCTION This report consists of three main items: (1) the geologic map (sheet 1 of 2), (2) the correlation of map units (sheet 2 of 2), which includes an inset map relating different parts of the map to the correlation of map units and to (3) the description of map units (this pamphlet). The inset map on sheet 2 shows the major geological elements of the map area. They are, from west to east, (1) the Alexander belt, consisting of generally unmetamorphosed Lower Paleozoic through Upper Triassic rocks intruded by scattered mid-Cretaceous plutons, (2) the Gravina belt, consisting of unmetamorphosed to highly metamorphosed, variably deformed Upper Jurassic(?) through mid-Cretaceous flysch and volcanic rocks intruded by both mid- and Upper Cretaceous plutons, and (3) the Mainland belt, consisting of metamorphic rocks intruded by Upper Cretaceous, lower Tertiary, and mid- Tertiary plutons. Younger than almost all parts of all of these belts, and extending from the Alexander belt across the Gravina and onto the mainland belt, is the lower to middle Tertiary Kuiu-Etolin belt that consists largely of varied volcanic rocks, associated plutons, and minor sedimentary rocks.
  • Conservation Prioritization of Prince of Wales Island

    Conservation Prioritization of Prince of Wales Island

    CONSERVATION PRIORITIZATION OF PRINCE OF WALES ISLAND Identifying opportunities for private land conservation Prepared by the Southeast Alaska Land Trust With support from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Alaska Coastal Conservation Program February 2013 Conservation prioritization of Prince of Wales Island Conservation prioritization of Prince of Wales Island IDENTIFYING OPPORTUNITIES FOR PRIVATE LAND CONSERVATION INTRODUCTION The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) awarded the Southeast Alaska Land Trust (SEAL Trust) a Coastal Grant in 2012. SEAL Trust requested this grant to fund a conservation priority analysis of private property on Prince of Wales Island. This report and an associated Geographic Information Systems (GIS) map are the products of that work. Driving SEAL Trust’s interest in conservation opportunities on Prince of Wales Island is its obligations as an in-lieu fee sponsor for Southeast Alaska, which makes it eligible to receive fees in-lieu of mitigation for wetland impacts. Under its instrument with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers1, SEAL Trust must give priority to project sites within the same 8-digit Hydrologic Unit (HUC) as the permitted impacts. In the past 10 years, SEAL Trust has received a number of in-lieu fees from wetlands impacted by development on Prince of Wales Island, which, along with its outer islands, is the 8-digit HUC #19010103 (see Map 1). SEAL Trust has no conservation holdings or potential projects on Prince of Wales Island. In an attempt to achieve its conservation goals and compliance with the geographic elements of the Instrument, SEAL Trust wanted to take a strategic approach to exploring preservation possibilities in the Prince of Wales HUC.
