with a base 30 miles in diameter and a
summit crater 20 miles in
circumference, last erupted in 2004. Mt.
Veniaminof has the most extensive
crater glacier in the United States and is
the only known glacier on the continent
with an active volcanic vent in its
center. The 800,000-acre Mt.
Veniaminof National Natural Landmark
recognizes the unique qualities of this
area.
The Alaska Maritime National
Wildlife Refuge includes Federallyowned islands, sea stacks, columns,
islets, and rocks off the coast of Alaska.
Seal Cape, a 9,900-acre headland, is the
only part of the Alaska Maritime Refuge
included in this Conservation Plan.
Narrow bays cut Seal Cape into two
main arms which rise to peaks of more
than 2,000 feet.
More than 2,000 people live in 12
communities located near the Refuges.
The region is characterized by a mixed
cash-subsistence economy. The cash
economy is dominated by commercial
fishing, tourism, and government
employment. The Refuges sustain nearly
1,500 local jobs and contribute $70
million in income annually to the local
economy, nearly all through supporting
the commercial fishery by providing
salmon spawning and rearing habitat.
Issues raised during scoping and
addressed in this Revised Conservation
Plan are: (1) Access to remote and
sensitive areas; (2) conflicts between
Refuge user groups.
This Revised Conservation Plan
identifies and evaluates four alternatives
for managing the Refuges for the next 15
years. These alternatives follow the
same general management direction but
provide different ways of addressing the
issues.
Alternative 1: No Action: Management
of the Refuge would continue to follow
the current course of action as identified
and described in the existing plans and
Records of Decision for these refuges.
The ranges and intensities of
management activities would be
maintained. Private and commercial
uses of the Refuges would be
unchanged. Refuge management would
continue to reflect existing laws,
executive orders, regulations, and
policies governing Service
administration and operation of the
National Wildlife Refuge System.
Helicopter access/landing for
recreational purposes, outside of
designated Wilderness, would be
evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
Permit number
102916
VerDate Aug<31>2005
Alternative 2: There would be no
change in the way lands are managed or
in how the public can access the
Refuges. Research and monitoring
provide goals and objectives for
increasing our knowledge of wildlife
and habitat needs and relationships.
Public use monitoring would facilitate
wildlife dependent recreation,
subsistence, and other traditional uses.
Helicopter landings for recreational
purposes would not be allowed in
sensitive resource areas, at sensitive
times, or where remoteness was a
primary quality of the area. Landings
could be considered in other areas. The
Service would develop a process for
identifying sensitive areas, in
cooperation with the State of Alaska and
other interested parties.
Alternative 3: Research and
monitoring provide goals and objectives
for increasing our knowledge of wildlife
and habitat needs and relationships.
Public use monitoring would facilitate
wildlife dependent recreation,
subsistence, and other traditional uses.
Helicopter access/landing for
recreational access would not be
allowed. The boundary of the Yantarni
Bay Moderate Management Area would
be adjusted to coincide with
geographically identifiable features
while including ORV trails and areas of
moderate use.
Alternative 3a: Preferred Alternative:
Research and monitoring provide goals
and objectives for increasing our
knowledge of wildlife and habitat needs
and relationships. Public use
monitoring would facilitate wildlife
dependent recreation, subsistence, and
other traditional uses. Helicopter
access/landing for recreational
purposes, outside of designated
Wilderness, would be evaluated on a
case-by-case basis. The boundary of the
Yantarni Bay Moderate Management
Area would be adjusted to coincide with
geographically identifiable features
while including ORV trails and areas of
moderate use.
