NATURAL RESOURCES, ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF
Natural resource development, road and airport construction, and rehabilitation of military lands is occurring throughout rural Alaska. Revegetation materials specific to local areas are needed for nearly all of these projects. These ARRA funds will be used to assist rural communities in the development of native seed production businesses to serve the restoration needs. The primary users of seed will be the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, the U.S. Department of Defense, mining companies and the oil industry. Production of adapted and native seed is an industry suited for rural villages. There is potential for a decrease in costs and more effective revegetation if the materials can be produced locally. Implementation of this project will help communities build an industry that promotes wise resource rehabilitation and development, and provide a higher quality product at a lower cost to the end user. Depending on available land and local interest, potential communities that could benefit from this funding are Barrow, Kotzebue, Aniak, Bethel, and Metlakatla, all of which are in close proximity to resource development projects.
