Comments are due March 20th. Speak out about this misuse of public funds today. Tell the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) not to fund the controversial West Su Access Road (STIP Projects 34206 & 34461) in their Amendment #2 to the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program proposal!
A beloved springtime staple for the Kenai Peninsula fat bike and beach running community is coming to a close. Kaitlin Vadla, Cook Inletkeeper Regional Director and race creator, says, “In order to make room for greater focus on implementing in-river salmon habitat solutions, we have made the difficult decision to end Cook Inletkeeper’s Mouth to Mouth Wild Run & Ride.”
After five years of implementing local solutions, Inletkeeper’s newest community-led project will focus on improving salmon habitat on the Central Peninsula. Inletkeeper is inviting the public to come together on February 10th with local experts to brainstorm salmon habitat solutions and then choose the best one for volunteers to implement alongside Inletkeeper in the Central Peninsula.
The new Action Plan identifies the highest priority actions for the next 10 years that will lead to greater protection of Alaska’s fish and wild salmon habitat from the impacts of thermal change. The keys to success will be continued collaboration and coordination among data collectors and to engage resource managers, who need to understand changing thermal patterns and the implications for freshwater resources to address our fisheries crisis.
