Description: This report presents information about subsistence uses of fish, wildlife, and plant resources in 5 communities of Southwest Alaska: Igiugig, Kokhanok, Koliganek, Levelock, and New Stuyahok. The Alaska Department of Fish and Game Division of Subsistence conducted the study in collaboration with Stephen R. Braund & Associates. This report documents findings from phase II, which expanded the study to include 2005 data and 5 additional communities within the watersheds that could be affected by mine development. The Pebble Project is a mineral deposit in an advanced exploration stage located near Frying Pan Lake, which is 70 miles to the northeast of the study community of Koliganek and 35 miles northwest of the study community of Kokhanok. The Pebble Project required updated baseline information about subsistence harvests and uses. Information was collected through systematic household surveys and mapping interviews.
