Abstract:

This project will promote recovery of injured resources and protect and enhance environmental quality in the lower Cook Inlet communities of Nanwalek, Port Graham, and Seldovia. In FY 99 (Project 99514), the Trustee Council funded development of a plan for a waste management program that identifies solutions to these three communities' waste management problems. The component of the plan proposed for EVOS funding relates primarily to used oil and household hazardous waste. In FY 02, this project will undertake the first phase of plan implementation, which will include site visits, training, and follow-up assistance visits by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, in conjunction with the Kenai Peninsula Borough and the Chugach Regional Resources Commission, in regard to existing waste management equipment and procedures. Phase I will also include recommendations to the Council on any additional equipment needs, facility needs, and follow-up for possible funding later in FY 02.
