Full Description

This project will enhance public safety through marking remote winter trails used for inter-village travel across BLM-managed Public lands and adjacent Federal, State, and private lands. It will help reduce unauthorized use on Native Corporation lands adjacent to BLM-managed lands by marking Alaska Native Claim Settlement Act (ANCSA) 17(b) easements, which are the legal access across those lands to reach public lands. It will acquire geospatial data that will help improve land use planning by Federal, State, and Local agencies and enhance search and rescue capabilities in Northwest Alaska.
