Public Notice

Release of the Unalaska Bay Site Specific Plan Public Review Draft

Public Comment Period Open

 

The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has released the Unalaska Bay Site Specific Plan Public Review Draft (PRD) for public review and comment. Following a 30-day public review period, which may result in changes to the PRD, the planning team will review the comments and prepare an Issue Response Summary (IRS). The IRS provides a summary of issues raised during the comment period, a response to those issues, and a list of recommended revisions to the plan. The PRD and the IRS will be made available for public review. Once adopted, this plan will serve as the basis for the management of state-owned tide and submerged lands within the planning area.

The planning area includes nearly 89,000 acres of state-owned tide and submerged land in Unalaska Bay. Stretching from Cape Cheerful in the west to Erskine Point in the east, the planning area includes Nateekin Bay, Captains Bay, Iliuliul Bay, Summer Bay, Kalekta Bay, and runs north to the three mile seaward limit, where it abuts the boundary of the Bristol Bay Area Plan. The Unalaska Bay Site Specific Plan (UBSSP) proposes to classify the tide and submerged land within the planning area as Wildlife Habitat and Public Recreation Land, and Waterfront Development Land. The Public Comment Period is open from March 22, 2024 through April 22, 2024. Comments may be submitted by email to dnr.rads.ssp@alaska.gov, by fax at 907-269-8915, or mailed to the following address:
