  • 2019 Umiat Landfill Decision Document
    United States Army Formerly Used Corps of Engineers Defense Sites Program DECISION DOCUMENT ______________________________________ Hazardous, Toxic, and Radioactive Waste Project # F10AK0243-08 Umiat Air Force Station Formerly Used Defense Site Umiat, Alaska September 2019 Prepared By: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Alaska District Environmental Engineering Branch P.O. Box 6898 JBER, Alaska 99506-0898 [This page intentionally blank] EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Decision Document (DD) presents the selected remedy for the Umiat Air Force Station (AFS) Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS) Hazardous Toxic and Radioactive Waste (HTRW) project titled Umiat Landfill, Project Number F10AK0243-08. The selected remedy decision is based upon the Administrative Record for this site. The former Umiat AFS is located along the Colville River in the arctic foothills north of the Brooks Range, Alaska, approximately 105 miles southwest of Deadhorse, 170 miles southeast of Utqiaġvik (Barrow), and 65 miles southwest of Nuiqsut. The landfill is located partially on land owned by the Bureau of Land Management and partially on land owned by the State of Alaska, Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. The Umiat Air Force Station property consists of eleven separate projects, five of which are currently open. The Umiat Landfill project addresses impacts associated with the approximately 8-acre Umiat AFS landfill located about one-half mile east of the Umiat AFS cantonment facilities, within a seasonal slough of the Colville River. The Umiat Landfill project represents 95% of the remaining liability at the Umiat AFS property. Additional open projects at the Umiat AFS property include Umiat Test Well 7, Umiat Test Wells 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 11; Umiat Main Pad and Airfield; and Umiat Test Well #9 Drainage.

  • Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) Is a Membership Organization Representing Almost 400,000 Pilots and Aircraft Owners in the United States
    421 Aviation Way Frederick, Maryland 21701 T. 301-695-2000 F. 301-695-2375 www.aopa.org December 3, 2014 Mr. Frederick Matos National Telecommunication and Information Administration US Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue NW Room 4898 Attn: Arctic NOI Washington DC 20230 Re: Telecommunications Assessment of the Arctic Region Docket No. 140925800-4800-01 Dear Mr. Matos: The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) is a membership organization representing almost 400,000 pilots and aircraft owners in the United States. In addition to the 3,500 members who live in Alaska, many of our members from other parts of the country fly to and within the Arctic either for business or pleasure. On their behalf, we wish to offer comments to the Notice of Inquiry regarding the Telecommunications Assessment of the Arctic Region. Background The Arctic within Alaska, extending from the Arctic Circle, through of the Brooks Range and northern foothills to the arctic coastal plain and the waters beyond, is a vast and sparsely populated region. Aviation plays a major role in providing year-around transportation to and among the communities in the region, as well as remote areas on land, and offshore. A single all-season 414 mile highway is the sole road that connects this region with the rest of the state. Only seasonal ship traffic provides heavy lift and resupply missions due to the short summer navigation season. Consequently, aviation is the main year- around form of access to transport people, deliver mail and supplies, fuel and other essentials needed to survive in this climate.

    Annual Report Replies: Region 1 - Southeast Alaska Mr. Donald Hernandez, Acting Chair Southeast Alaska Subsistence Regional Advisory Council c/o Office of Subsistence Management 1011 E. Tudor Rd. MS 121 Anchorage, Alaska 99503-6199 Dear Chairman Hernandez: This letter responds to the Southeast Alaska Subsistence Regional Advisory Council’s (Council) fiscal year 2017 Annual Report. The Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture have delegated to the Federal Subsistence Board (Board) the responsibility to respond to these reports. The Board appreciates your effort in developing the Annual Report. Annual Reports allow the Board to become aware of the issues outside of the regulatory process that affect subsistence users in your region. We value this opportunity to review the issues concerning your region. 1. Federal Funding As budgets for the agencies that support the Federal Subsistence Management Program are reduced, the Council is concerned that certain programs and support will be affected: a. Funding of Fisheries Resource Monitoring Program (FRMP) Projects: The Council is worried about the availability of Federal funding for the FRMP, and that projects funded through this program will be reduced or even cancelled. The Council acknowledges the value of the data collected from these projects and their importance for managing fish and wildlife resources for the traditional and subsistence way of life. There is a definite need for data concerning fish populations and documented impacts to determine what causes the decline of fish runs in some systems and not in others. The Council also recognizes the significant impact these FRMP projects have to the communities of rural Southeast Alaska, including jobs, and skill development for community residents.

AIAS Airlines Airport Affairs Committee Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport - Fairbanks International Airport July 5, 2012 Mr. Steve Hatter Deputy Commissioner of Aviation 4111 Aviation Avenue P.O. Box 196900 Anchorage, AK 99519-6960 Re: AIAS Planning Study Forecasts Thank you for the opportunity to participate in the development and review of the forecasts for Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, Lake Hood Seaplane Base, and Fairbanks International Airport. We appreciate the extensive effort made by the AIAS Planning team to reach out and actively solicit airline participation in the process. The AIAS (Alaska International Airport System) AAAC (Airlines Airport Affairs Committee) believes these forecasts accurately represent current economic uncertainties and trends and are a reasonable estimate of long term future activity levels. Given uncertainties of forecasts, especially today, we encourage future planning to be based on aviation activity trigger points rather than forecasted dates. We also believe the forecasts will need to be revisited prior to committing to any large capital projects. Thanks again for partnering with the airlines on the forecasts.
