Please join us for the upcoming meeting about the Northeast Alaska Area Plan Public Review Draft. Representatives from the Division of Mining, Land & Water will be present to answer questions you may have about the draft plan.

The Northeast Alaska Area Plan (NEAAP) covers a large and mostly remote area northeast of Fairbanks that stretches from the Dalton Highway east to the Canadian border and north into the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The NEAAP includes the communities of Fort Yukon, Venetie, Arctic Village, Circle, Central, Beaver, Chalkyitsik, Coldfoot, Stevens Village, and Wiseman. The Yukon River and Yukon River Flats are prominent features within the center of the planning area. Other notable rivers include the Chandalar, Porcupine, and Charley. Much of the Steese Highway and some sections of the Dalton Highway are within the planning area. Most of the state-owned lands are in the northwest portion near Chandalar Lake and in the southern portion of the planning area, near the communities of Central and Circle. When the final plan is adopted, NEAAP will serve as the basis for management of state land and waters within the plan boundary.
