U.S. Department of Interior Washington, DC 20240 ABSTRACT This report documents contemporary subsistence patterns of hunting, fishing and gathering wild renewable resources of Manokotak residents. Manokotak is an Eskimo community of 309 residents, located approximately 375 miles southwest of Anchorage, in southwest Alaska. Central Yup'ik is still the dominant language spoken by all generations. The Division of Subsistence undertook a study to document the number of resources harvested, estimates of harvest quantities, and patterns of non-commercial distribution and exchange of wild and renewable resources. The study also gathered detailed mapped information on areas used by Manokotak moose hunters. Data for this report were collected through several methodologies. The primary instrument for data collection was a detailed harvest survey of 54 households (91 percent of community households). Yup'ik speaking interviewers were used to interview those persons in the community who had been identified as dominant or solely Yup'ik speakers. A separate mapping methodology was employed to identify areas used by Manokotak hunters for moose hunting. Researchers also engaged in participant observation at salmon fish camps to identify patterns of social organization. In addition, key extended family groups were identified and subsequently interviewed about their harvesting and sharing networks. Relevant literature was also reviewed. Survey results were computerized and analyzed with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences program (SPSS). The ancestry of the current Manokotak residents can be traced to the prehistoric era when tiild resources were the sole source of survival. During the historical period, subsistence patterns were altered by the fur trade, the establishment of missions and schools, and especially the commercial salmon industry. During the early 1980s Manokotak's economy can best be described as one based on a mix of cash and subsistence resources. In 1985, commercial salmon fishing provided the primary source of cash income for nearly all households, and many participated in the Togiak commercial herring and spawn-on-kelp fisheries as well. In addition, a limited amount of employment through the local school, city, state, and federal governments, and a small private sector was available. Most jobs were of a seasonal and part- time nature. Subsistence activities continued to play a key role in Manokotak's economy and way of life. The results of the survey of 54 households demonstrated that respondents used 53 kinds of fish, game, and plant resources, including at least 80 species, during the study year. The mean number of kinds of resources used was 27 per household and the range was 8 to 46. The mean number of kinds of resources harvested was 19 per household. Resource use was extremely high (between 83 and 100 percent of interviewed households) for all major resource categories. Salmon and other fish species were used by every household in the sample. Other resource categories included land mammals, furbearers, plants and berries, birds, marine mammals, and marine invertebrates, and were used by 83 to 96 percent of sampled households. Participation in resource harvesting was widespread - all but one household was involved in some degree of resource harvesting. Harvest levels were relatively high. The community per capita harvest in 1985 was 384 pounds usable weight. Manokotak's subsistence harvest levels have not changed significantly since 1973. When adjusted to represent comparable species, the per capita harvests between 1973 and 1985 were very similar, showing a difference of only thirty-five pounds per person. Salmon, moose, caribou, and belukha were major resources harvested in both periods, comprising 71 percent of the harvest in 1973 and 55 percent in 1985. In 1985, beaver was also an important resource, contributing 7.6 percent of the harvest. Manokotak residents participated in a defined seasonal round of harvesting activities, including migration by the entire village to fish camps at the mouth of the Igushik River in June and July for subsistence and commercial salmon fishing. A smaller number of people also set up spring camps in Kulukak Bay during the herring season. This report identifies harvest areas which were used over a recent 20-year period for ten major resources or resource categories, including moose, salmon, caribou, marine mammals, freshwater fish, marine fish, plants, furbearers, marine invertebrates, and waterfowl. The areas used were quite extensive but all harvesting took place in the Bristol Bay region. Transportation used for harvesting most resources was generally skiffs, snowmachines, and all terrain vehicles. Airplanes were occasionally used to reach more distant caribou herds, particularly in years of poor snow cover. Sharing of wild resources was widespread both within the community and with relatives and friends in other communities. All resource categories were shared to some extent, with the exception of furbearers harvested for their pelts. The most widely shared resources were moose and caribou. Sharing was particularly frequent between residents of Manokotak and the communities of Aleknagik, Togiak, and Twin Hills. Gifts of food were often sent to relatives and friends in Dillingham and Anchorage as well. In sum, the research findings indicate that subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering is still an integral part of the economy, culture, and identity of Manokotak residents. Subsistence continues to provide important nutritional, social, and cultural functions in Manokotak.

Population Monitoring and Status of the Nushagak Peninsula Caribou Herd, 1988-2012 Andy R. Aderman1 ABSTRACT In February 1988, 146 caribou were reintroduced to the Nushagak Peninsula. From 1988 to 2013, radio collars were deployed on female caribou and monitored monthly. High calf recruitment and adult female survival allowed the population to grow rapidly (r = 0.226), peaking at 1,399 caribou in 1997. Population density on the Nushagak Peninsula reached approximately 1.2 caribou per km2 in 1997 and 1998. During the next decade, calf recruitment and adult female survival decreased and the population declined (r = -0.105) to 546 caribou in 2006. The population remained at about 550 caribou until 2009 and then increased to 902 by 2012. Subsistence hunting removed from 0-12.3% of the population annually from 1995-2012. Decreased nutrition and other factors likely caused an unstable age distribution and subsequent population decline after the peak in 1997. Dispersal, disease, unreported harvest and predation implications for caribou populations are discussed.

  • Federal Subsistence Board Proceedings, April 13, 1994
    STAFF ANALYSIS TEMPORARY SPECIAL ACTION WSA16-02 ISSUES Temporary Special Action Request WSA16-02, submitted by the Togiak National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) and the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G), requests that Federal public lands on the Nushagak Peninsula be opened to the harvest of caribou by all Alaska residents when the population is above 900 caribou. DISCUSSION The Nushagak Peninsula Caribou Herd (NPCH) is a growing population that is currently well above the population objectives outlined in the Nushagak Peninsula Caribou Management Plan. In recent years, harvest has been below average, owing largely to poor winter travel conditions that prevented hunters from accessing caribou. The proponents are concerned that if the population continues to grow, severe range degradation could occur, causing the herd to move from the Peninsula to areas where favorable forage conditions exist. Expanding the opportunity to harvest caribou on the Nushagak Peninsula to all Alaska residents could be helpful in reducing the population to desired levels and preventing overuse of the range. The proponents believe that increased harvest in the near term will benefit subsistence users in the long term by stabilizing the population, thereby providing a consistent opportunity to harvest caribou on the Nushagak Peninsula. This request was submitted with a letter of support from Choggiung Ltd., an Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) village corporation and land owner on the Nushagak Peninsula (Appendix 1). The applicable Federal regulations are found in 36 CFR 242.19(b) and 50 CFR 100.19(b) (Temporary Special Actions) and state that: …After adequate notice and public hearing, the Board may temporarily close or open public lands for the taking of fish and wildlife for subsistence uses, or modify the requirements for subsistence take, or close public lands for the taking of fish and wildlife for nonsubsistence uses, or restrict take for nonsubsistence uses.

  • PCB in Dillingham
    1 PCB in Dillingham Dillingham High school The Squidlets Primary Contact: Ladonya George Valerie Eason August Shade Jae Lee P.O Box 170 Dillingham, AK 99576 Coach: Summer Graber Email: [email protected] 2 PCB in Dillingham Abstract The Bristol Bay is Dillingham’s main source of commerce and subsistence. On November 4, 2011 a super sack containing polychlorinated biphenyls was accidentally dropped into the Bristol Bay. PCB is a pollutant and can harm the local ecosystem including the community that utilizes the resources of the bay. Dillingham does not have any of its own regulations for dealing with hazardous material, therefore not much enforcement can be placed. To prevent further accidents the recommended management plan would include increased regulations on shipping and handling of chemicals into or out of Dillingham, improvements to the physical structure of the dock, as well as continued testing of the marine environment. 3 Introduction The Nushagak bay is located in the Bristol Bay of the South West Alaska. Dillingham is located on the west part of the Nushagak bay. One of the river, north of the Nushagak bay is the Nushagak river. The Bristol Bay is located to the east of the Bering Sea and to the north of the Aleutian chain. The Nushagak bay has 3 other rivers that flow into it; they are the Wood River, Igushik River, and Snake River. The Nushagak bay is affected by tides. The Nushagak bay gets a high and low tide twice a day. While able to change the height of the water level the tide is not strong enough to bring salt water up the bay as far as Dillingham.
