between the cities of King Cove and
Cold Bay, including air and marine
routes, would continue to operate and
be developed.
Alternative 2—Land Exchange and
Southern Road Alignment
Alternative 2 proposed a land
exchange between the Federal
Government, the State of Alaska, and
the King Cove Corporation that would
result in a road/road corridor through
Izembek Refuge and Izembek
Wilderness. Under the proposed land
exchange, approximately 201 acres of
federal land (surface and subsurface
estate) of the Izembek Refuge and
Izembek Wilderness as well as 1,600
acres (surface and subsurface estate)
within the Alaska Maritime National
Wildlife Refuge on Sitkinak Island
would be conveyed to the State of
Alaska. In exchange, the Service would
receive approximately 43,093 acres of
land owned by the State of Alaska (to be
designated wilderness), as well as
approximately 13,300 acres of land
owned by King Cove Corporation. In
addition, the King Cove Corporation
would relinquish 5,430 acres of selected
lands within the Izembek Refuge and
Izembek Wilderness boundary. The
proposed road/road corridor would be
located approximately 1⁄2 mile to 1 mile
north of Kinzarof Lagoon.

Alternative 3—Land Exchange and
Central Road Alignment
Alternative 3 proposed a land
exchange between the Federal
Government, the State of Alaska, and
the King Cove Corporation that would
result in a road/road corridor through
Izembek Refuge and Izembek
Wilderness. Under the proposed land
exchange, approximately 227 acres of
federal land (surface and subsurface
estate) of the Izembek Refuge and
Izembek Wilderness as well as 1,600
acres (surface and subsurface estate)
within the Alaska Maritime National
Wildlife Refuge on Sitkinak Island
would be conveyed to the State of
Alaska. In exchange, the Service would
receive approximately 43,093 acres of
land owned by the State of Alaska (to be
designated wilderness), as well as
approximately 13,300 acres of land
owned by King Cove Corporation. In
addition, the King Cove Corporation
would relinquish 5,430 acres of selected
lands within the Izembek Refuge and
Izembek Wilderness boundary. The
proposed road/road corridor would be
located more centrally within the
Izembek isthmus approximately 1 to 11⁄2
mile north of Kinzarof lagoon and 1⁄2 to
1 mile south of Izembek Lagoon.

Alternative 4—Hovercraft Operations
From the Northeast Terminal to Cross
Wind Cove
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
Alternative 4 proposed operation of a
hovercraft service 6 days per week to
provide access between the
communities of King Cove and Cold
Bay, running between the Northeast
Terminal and Cross Wind Cove. A land
exchange was not considered under this
alternative.
[FWS–R8–FHC–2014–N024;
FXFR1334088TWG0W4–123–FF08EACT00]
Alternative 5—Lenard Harbor Ferry
With Cold Bay Dock Improvements
Alternative 5 proposed use of a ferry
to provide access between King Cove
and Cold Bay that would travel 14 miles
between a terminal in Lenard Harbor to
a substantially modified Cold Bay dock.
Under this alternative, ferry service
would be provided 6 days per week and
a land exchange would not occur.
Factors We Considered in
Decisionmaking
We based our decision on a thorough
analysis of the effects to the human
environment, including environmental,
social, and economic considerations
found in the Final EIS. We have
evaluated the effects of proposed roads
through Izembek Refuge and Izembek
Wilderness in numerous analyses since
1960, including the 1985
Comprehensive Conservation Plan and
through the completion of the current
EIS. We have consistently found that the
impacts of building a proposed road on
the wildlife resources, habitats, and
designated Wilderness would create
irreversible change and damage to a
unique and ecologically important area,
and especially to designated
Wilderness. The no action alternative
selected in the ROD supports the
continued management of the Izembek
Refuge consistent with the purposes for
which it was established.
Decision: After a thorough review of
the potential environmental, social, and
economic consequences of all
alternatives evaluated in the Final EIS,
we selected Alternative 1, the No Action
Alternative. Selecting Alternative 1
preserves the integrity of the Izembek
National Wildlife Refuge and Izembek
Wilderness, ensures the continued
protection of unique and internationally
recognized habitats, and maintains the
integrity of designated Wilderness.
