UPPER YUKON REGIONAL ENERGY PROJECT Community Information Preliminary Site Visit August 2004 Prepared for: State of Alaska Alaska Energy Authority / Rural Energy Group Prepared By: CRW Engineering Group 3940 Arctic Boulevard, Suite 300 Anchorage, Alaska 99503 (907) 562-3252 nee ey ples AT Wy eae we Arctic Village Community Overview Current Population: 166 (2003 State Demographer est.) : Pronunciation/Other Names: (ar-TICK) Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Not Applicable Location: Arctic Village is on the east fork of the Chandalar River, 100 miles north of Fort Yukon and 290 miles north of Fairbanks. It lies at approximately 68.126940° North Latitude and -145.53778° West Longitude. (Sec. 24, TO15S, RO28E, Umiat Meridian.) Arctic Village is located in the Barrow Recording District. The area encompasses 61.7 sq. miles of land and 8.1 sq. miles of water. Arctic Village has a continental subarctic climate. Winters are long and harsh, summers are short but warm. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -70 to 90. Precipitation averages 9 inches, with an annual snowfall of 52.8 inches. History: Until the 1950s, the Neets'aii Gwichin ("residents of the north side") lived a highly nomadic life. They traditionally used seasonal camps and semi-permanent settlements, such as Arctic Village, Christian, Venetie and Sheenjak, in pursuit of fish and game. They traded with Inupiat Eskimos on the Arctic coast. There is archaeological evidence that the Arctic Village area was population as early as 4,500 BC. In 1863, Archdeacon McDonald of Fort Yukon observed that the Chandalar Kutchin were important providers of caribou meat for the residents of Ft. Yukon. Reverend Albert Tritt, a Neets'aii Gwich'in born in 1880, wrote that his people led a nomadic life, traveling to the Arctic coast, Rampart, Old Crow, the Coleen River and Fort Yukon in the 1880s and 1890s. With the advent of firearms in the early 1900s, family groups began to gather more permanently at several locations; there was no longer a need to disperse into small groups to hunt caribou. The first permanent resident at the present village site was Chief Christian in 1909. In 1943, the Venetie Indian Reservation was established, due to the efforts of several area villagers to protect their land for subsistence use. The first school was built in 1959. When the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) was passed in 1971, Venetie and Arctic Village opted for title to the 1.8 million acres of land in the former Reservation. Residents continue to use the community as a base of operations from which they pursue seasonal subsistence activities. Culture: The Neets'aii Gwich'in of Arctic Village lead a subsistence-based lifestyle. Economy: The economy of Arctic Village is subsistence-based. Caribou, moose, sheep, porcupine, rabbit and ptarmigan are hunted. Freshwater fish, waterfowl and berries are also harvested. The school, clinic, village council and stores are the primary employers. Seasonal employment includes construction, fire fighting, guiding and conducting wildlife surveys for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Some residents trap or sell firewood for income. The Tribe operates the washeteria and clinic. Facilities: Water is drawn from the Chandalar River, is treated and hauled from the washeteria. None of the homes are plumbed. The village provides water to two school tanks; one 17,000 gals. and the other, 7,000 gals. The clinic hauls their own water. Honeybuckets are disposed of by residents or outhouses are used. Feasibility studies are underway to examine alternatives for a safer water source, washeteria upgrades and a landfill relocation. The washeteria is the only facility with running water, and uses a small solar power system to provide some electricity. The landfill is not permitted and needs to be relocated away from the airport. Transportation: Air transportation provides the only year-round access to Arctic Village. Ice fog frequently interferes with air service in winter months. The 4,500' long by 75' wide gravel airstrip is owned and managed by the Tribal Government. Local transportation is by 4 wheeler and snowmachine. Five residents maintain dog teams. Climate: Arctic Village has a continental subarctic climate. Winters are long and harsh, summers are short but warm. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -70 to 90. Precipitation averages 9 inches, with an annual snowfall of 52.8 inches.

Beaver Community Overview Current Population: 65 (2003 State Demographer est.) Pronunciation/Other Names: (BEE-vur) Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Doyon, Limited Location: Beaver is located on the north bank of the Yukon River, approximately 60 air miles southwest of Fort Yukon and 110 miles north of Fairbanks. It lies in the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. It lies at approximately 66.359440° North Latitude and -147.39639° West Longitude. (Sec. 30, TO18N, RO02E, Fairbanks Meridian.) Beaver is located in the Fairbanks Recording District. The area encompasses 20.5 sq. miles of land and 1.1 sq. miles of water. Beaver has a continental subarctic climate characterized by seasonal extreme temperatures. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -70 to 90. Precipitation averages 6.5 inches; snowfall is 43.4 inches annually. The Yukon River is ice-free from mid-June to mid-October. History: Gold discoveries in the Chandalar region in 1907 led to the founding of Beaver. It was established as the Yukon River terminus for miners heading north to the gold fields. The Alaska Road Commission built a trail from Beaver north to Caro on the Chandalar River around 1907. In 1910, Thomas Carter and H.E. Ashelby established a store at Beaver, and three freight companies operated on the trail, commonly known as Government Road. In 1911, about the time the gold rush was over, Frank Yasuda, a Japanese who had traded at Point Barrow and prospected in the Brooks Range, arrived with a group of Eskimos and became a partner in the trading post. They served the remaining mines in the region, supplied riverboats with firewood, and traded with Eskimo and Indian fur trappers. A post office was established in 1913, and a second trading post opened in the early 1920s. The first Beaver school opened in 1928, and an airstrip was built in the 1930s. Beaver's population remained stable from 1950 through the 1970s. In 1974, the village council purchased the local store and set it up as a cooperative, with villagers holding shares of stock. Culture: The population of Beaver is predominantly mixed Gwitchin/Koyukuk Athabascan and Inupiat Eskimo. Subsistence is an important source of food items. Economy: Almost all Beaver residents are involved in subsistence activities. Moose, salmon, freshwater fish, bear and waterfowl supply meat. Poor fish returns since 1998 have significantly affected the community. Gardening and berry-picking are popular activities. Most wage employment is at the school, post office, clinic and village council. Seasonal wages are earned through BLM fire fighting, construction jobs, trapping, producing handicrafts or selling cut firewood. Facilities: A new well and pumphouse were constructed in 1997; residents haul treated water from this point. Honeybuckets are used for sewage disposal in all homes; a village-operated vehicle is used to haul wastes. Villagers rely on the washeteria for bathing and laundry. The washeteria and school use individual septic systems. The water tank, water treatment system and washeteria were renovated and a water & sewer master plan is underway (May 2003) to develop a piped water and sewer system. A new landfill was recently completed. Transportation: The State-owned 3,954' long by 75' wide lighted gravel airstrip provides daily air service. Fuel, store goods and supplies are shipped to Beaver via air cargo or barge during the summers. Trucks and ATVs are used by many residents. Snowmachines and dog teams are used during winter. Climate: Beaver has a continental subarctic climate characterized by seasonal extreme temperatures. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from - 70 to 90. Precipitation averages 6.5 inches; snowfall is 43.4 inches annually. The Yukon River is ice-free from mid-June to mid-October.

Dendu Gwich'in Tribe Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Doyon, Limited Location: The village is located along Birch Creek, approximately 26 miles southwest of Fort Yukon. It lies at approximately 66.256190° North Latitude and -145.84967° West Longitude. (Sec. 28, T017N, ROO9E, Fairbanks Meridian.) Birch Creek is located in the Fairbanks Recording District. The area encompasses 6.1 sq. miles of land and 0.3 sq. miles of water. Birch Creek has a continental subarctic climate, characterized by seasonal extremes of temperature. Winters are long and harsh, summers warm and short. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -71 to 97. Precipitation averages 6.5 inches, snowfall 43.4 inches. The Creek is ice-free from mid-June to mid-October. History: The Dendu Gwich'in traditionally occupied much of the Yukon Flats south of the Yukon River, including portions of the Crazy and White Mountains. Semi-permanent camps existed near the present village. The first written reference to a settlement in the Birch Creek area was in 1862 by a Fort Yukon clergyman who visited a camp established to provide fish for the Hudson's Bay Company in Ft. Yukon. Some anthropologists believe that this band was annihilated by scarlet fever in the 1880s, but there are ethnographic accounts of the use of this area from 1867 onwards. Birch Creek Jimmy was the founder of Birch Creek, and was Great Chief among the Chiefs in his days. He built a cabin in 1898 at the site of the Hudson's Bay fish camp. Several years later, he was joined by other extended family members. In about 1916, the group moved three miles upstream to the site of the present village. It was used as a seasonal base for harvest activities until the early 1950s, when the establishment of a school encouraged village residents to adopt a less nomadic way of life. The first airstrip was constructed in 1973. The school was closed for the 1999-2000 school year due to insufficient students. Culture: Local residents are Dendu Gwich'in Athabascans, and are active in subsistence practices. Possession of alcohol is banned in the village. Economy: Birch Creek's economy is heavily dependent upon subsistence. Salmon, whitefish, moose, black bear, waterfowl and berries provide most food sources. Wage income opportunities are extremely limited. BLM fire fighting, construction, the school, and the village council provide employment. The community is conducting planning activities to expand the economy to include tourism and merchandising. The Tribe operates the washeteria and electrical service. Facilities: Water is derived from Birch Creek and a slant well, is treated and stored in a 80,000-gal. tank. Residents haul water from the water plant. Honeybuckets are disposed of in the sewage lagoon or outhouses are used. No homes are plumbed. A new water intake, water treatment improvements, washeteria renovation, and sewage lagoon were recently completed. Funds are needed to repair the water tank and foundation, built in 1979. The landfill is nearing capacity, and a site has been selected to develop a new one. Transportation: Access to Birch Creek is primarily by the 4,000' long by 75' wide gravel, lighted State-owned airstrip. A new cross-wind airstrip is under construction. ATVs, motor bikes, snowmachines and skiffs are used for fishing, hunting and recreation. The village was once served by barge during high water, but no longer. There is a 26-mile winter trail to Ft. Yukon. Climate: Birch Creek has a continental subarctic climate, characterized by seasonal extremes of temperature. Winters are long and harsh, summers warm and short. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to - 60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -71 to 97. Precipitation averages 6.5 inches, snowfall 43.4 inches. The Creek is ice-free from mid-June to mid-October.

Pronunciation/Other Names: (chall-KEET-sick) Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Doyon, Limited Location: Chalkyitsik is located on the Black River about 50 miles east of Fort Yukon. It lies at approximately 66.654440° North Latitude and -143.72222° West Longitude. (Sec. 12, T021N, RO18E, Fairbanks Meridian.) Chalkyitsik is located in the Fairbanks Recording District. The area encompasses 8.7 sq. miles of land and 0.3 sq. miles of water. Chalkyitsik has a continental arctic climate, characterized by seasonal extremes of temperature. Winters are long and harsh, summers warm and short. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -71 to 97. Precipitation averages 6.5 inches, snowfall 43.4 inches. The River is ice-free from mid-June to mid- October. History: Chalkyitsik means "fish hooking place," and has traditionally been an important seasonal fishing site for the Gwich'in. Archaeological excavations in the area reveal use and occupancy of the region as early as 10,000 B.C. Village elders remember a highly nomadic way of life, living at the headwaters of the Black River from autumn to spring, and then floating downriver to fish in summer. Early explorers of the region refer briefly to the Black River Gwich'in Natives. Archdeacon MacDonald encountered them on the Black and Porcupine Rivers, as well as trading and socializing in Fort Yukon and Rampart, on a number of occasions from 1863 to 1868. Around the turn of the century, the Black River band began to settle in Salmon Village, about 70 miles upriver from the present site. The first permanent structure was built there by William Salmon, a Canadian Indian who married a Black River woman. In the late 1930s, a boat bound for Salmon Village with construction materials for a school had to unload at Chalkyitsik because of low water. The site was used as a seasonal fishing camp, and four cabins existed at that time. The decision was made to build the school there, and the Black River people began to settle around the school. By 1969, there were 26 houses, a store, two churches and a community hall in Chalkyitsik. Culture: Chalkyitsik is a traditional Gwich'in Athabascan village, with a subsistence lifestyle. The sale or importation of alcohol is banned in the village. Economy: Wage opportunities are limited and primarily part-time with the school district, village council, clinic, or state and federal agencies. Seasonal work is found fire firefighting for the BLM, making sleds and snowshoes, trapping and handicrafts. Subsistence plays an important role in the village economy. Moose, caribou, sheep, salmon and whitefish provide a relatively stable source of food. Facilities: Water is derived from a well under the Black River, treated and stored in a 100,000-gal. tank. Residents haul water from the new water treatment plant/washeteria/clinic building, and use honeybuckets or outhouses for sewage disposal. No homes are plumbed. The village provides water to the school. Water is often inadequate; a second well has been funded. A feasibility study was completed to serve piped water and sewer system to the school and 10 homes on the west side. A landfill relocation study is also being conducted. Transportation: Access is primarily by air; there is a State-owned 4,000' long by 90' wide gravel runway. Residents own ATVs, snowmachines and skiffs for fishing, hunting and recreation. No roads connect Chalkyitsik with other villages, although there is a winter trail to Fort Yukon. It is accessible by small riverboat. Chalkyitsik received cargo by barge at one time, but the service is no longer provided. Climate: Chalkyitsik has a continental arctic climate, characterized by seasonal extremes of temperature. Winters are long and harsh, summers warm and short. The average high temperature during July ranges from 65 to 72; the average low temperature during January is well below zero. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Extreme temperatures have been measured from -71 to 97. Precipitation averages 6.5 inches, snowfall 43.4 inches.

Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Doyon, Limited Location: Circle is located on the south bank of the Yukon River at the edge of the Yukon Flats, 160 miles northeast of Fairbanks. It is at the eastern end of the Steese Highway. It lies at approximately 65.825560° North Latitude and -144.06056° West Longitude. (Sec. 31, TO012N, RO18E, Fairbanks Meridian.) Circle is located in the Fairbanks Recording District. The area encompasses 107.7 sq. miles of land and 0.5 sq. miles of water. Circle has a continental subarctic climate, characterized by seasonal extremes in temperature. Winters are long and harsh, summers warm and short. Summer temperatures range from 65 to 72, winter temperatures can range from -71 to 0. Rainfall averages 6.5 inches, snowfall is 43.4 inches. The Yukon is ice-free from mid-June through mid-October. History: Circle (also known as Circle City) was established in 1893 as a supply point for goods shipped up the Yukon River and then overland to the gold mining camps. Early miners believed the town was located on the Arctic Circle, and named it Circle. By 1896, before the Klondike gold rush, Circle was the largest mining town on the Yukon, with a population of 700. It boasted an Alaska Commercial Company store, eight or ten dance halls, an opera house, a library, a school, a hospital, and an Episcopal Church. It had its own newspaper, the Yukon Press, and a number of residential U.S. government officials, including a commissioner, marshal, customs inspector, tax collector and postmaster. The town was virtually emptied after gold discoveries in the Klondike (1897) and Nome (1899). A few hearty miners stayed on in the Birch Creek area, and Circle became a small, stable community that supplied miners in the nearby Mastodon, Mammoth, Deadwood and Circle Creeks. Mining activity continues to this day. Culture: The population of Circle is predominantly Athabascan, but there are several non-Native families. The Circle Civic Community Association was formed in 1967. It cooperates with the traditional council in maintaining the sign area and public boat launch, and in preserving historic sites. Economy: Recreation attracts visitors to Circle seasonally. Circle Hot Springs was closed in October 2002. Some persons live in the community only during summer months. Major employers include the school, clinic, village corporation, trading post, and post office. A 25-room hotel is under construction. Two residents hold commercial fishing permits. Almost all residents are involved in subsistence. Salmon, freshwater fish, moose and bear are the major sources of meat. Trapping and making of handicrafts contribute to family Incomes. Facilities: Most homes haul treated well water from the washeteria/fire station or the school. Outhouses and honeybuckets are used for sewage disposal. All homes lack plumbing facilities. A feasibility study and master plan is underway to examine infrastructure alternatives. The landfill is located at mi. 156.5 Steese Hwy. Transportation: Circle has direct road access to Fairbanks by way of the Steese Highway. Barges deliver goods by the Yukon River during summer. Residents use ATVs, snowmobiles and dog sleds for recreation and subsistence activities. A new State-owned 3,000' long by 60' wide, lighted gravel airstrip is available. Float planes land on the River. Climate: Circle has a continental subarctic climate, characterized by seasonal extremes in temperature. Winters are long and harsh, summers warm and short. Summer temperatures range from 65 to 72, winter temperatures can range from -71 to 0. Rainfall averages 6.5 inches, snowfall is 43.4 inches. The Yukon is ice-free from mid-June through mid-October.

Pronunciation/Other Names: (YOO-kawn) Incorporation Type: 2nd Class City Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Doyon, Limited Location: Fort Yukon is located at the confluence of the Yukon River and the Porcupine River, about 145 air miles northeast of Fairbanks. It lies at approximately 66.564720° North Latitude and -145.27389° West Longitude. (Sec. 18, T020N, RO12E, Fairbanks Meridian.) Fort Yukon is located in the Fairbanks Recording District. The area encompasses 7.0 sq. miles of land and 0.4 sq. miles of water. The winters are long and harsh and the summers are short but warm. After freeze-up the plateau is a source of cold, continental arctic air. Daily minimum temperatures between November and March are usually below 0. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Summer high temperatures run 65 to 72; a high of 97 degrees has been recorded. Total annual precipitation averages 6.58 inches, with 43.4 inches of snowfall. The Yukon River is ice-free from the end of May through mid-September. History: Fort Yukon was founded in 1847 by Alexander Murray as a Canadian outpost in Russian Territory. It became an important trade center for the Gwich'in Indians, who inhabited the vast lowlands of the Yukon Flats and River valleys. The Hudson Bay Company, a British trading company, operated at Fort Yukon from 1846 until 1869. In 1862, a mission school was established. In 1867, Alaska was purchased by the U.S., and two years later it was determined that Fort Yukon was on American soil. Moses Mercier, a trader with the Alaska Commercial Company, took over operation of the Fort Yukon Trading Post. A post office was established in 1898. The fur trade of the 1800s, the whaling boom on the Arctic coast (1889-1904), and the Klondike gold rush spurred economic activity and provided some economic opportunities for the Natives. However, major epidemics of introduced diseases struck the Fort Yukon population from the 1860s until the 1920s. In 1949, a flood damaged or destroyed many homes in Fort Yukon. During the 1950s, a White Alice radar site and an Air Force station were established. Fort Yukon incorporated as a city in 1959. Culture: Most Fort Yukon residents are descendants of the Yukon Flats, Chandalar River, Birch Creek, Black River and Porcupine River Gwich'in Athabascan tribes. Subsistence is an important component of the local culture. The sale of alcohol is restricted to the City-owned package store. Economy: City, state, federal agencies and the Native corporation are the primary employers in Fort Yukon. The School District is the largest employer. Winter tourism is becoming increasingly popular -- Fort Yukon experiences spectacular Northern Lights. The BLM operates an emergency fire fighting base at the airport. The U.S. Air Force operates a White Alice Radar Station in Fort Yukon. Trapping and Native handicrafts also provide income. Residents rely on subsistence foods -- salmon, whitefish, moose, bear, caribou, and waterfowl provide most meat sources. One resident holds a commercial fishing permit. Facilities: Water is derived from two wells, is treated and stored in a 110,000-gal. tank. A combination of piped water, water delivery and individual wells serve households. A flush/haul system, septic tanks, honeybuckets and outhouses are used for sewage disposal. Approximately half of all homes are plumbed. The piped water system and household septic tanks were installed in 1984. The City has received funds to begin repairs to the piped water system and to construct a piped gravity sewer system to serve 250 residents and businesses. Transportation: Fort Yukon is accessible by air, and barge during the summer months. Heavy cargo is brought in by barge from the end of May through mid-September; there is a barge off-loading area, but no dock. Riverboats and skiffs are used for recreation, hunting, fishing and other subsistence activities. A State-owned 5,810' long by 150' wide lighted gravel airstrip is available; Hospital Lake, adjacent to the airport, is used by float planes. There are 17 miles of local roads, and over 100 automobiles and trucks. The City Transit Bus system provides transport throughout the town. Snowmachines and dog sleds are used on area trails or the frozen river, which becomes an ice road to area villages during winter. Climate: The winters are long and harsh and the summers are short but warm. After freeze-up the plateau is a source of cold, continental arctic air. Daily minimum temperatures between November and March are usually below 0. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Summer high temperatures run 65 to 72; a high of 97 degrees has been recorded.

Pronunciation/Other Names: (RAM-part) Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Doyon, Limited Location: Rampart is located on the south bank of the Yukon River, approximately 75 miles upstream from its junction with the Tanana River, 100 miles northwest of Fairbanks. It lies at approximately 65.5050° North Latitude and -150.17° West Longitude. (Sec. 23, TOO8N, RO13W, Fairbanks Meridian.) Rampart is located in the Rampart Recording District. The area encompasses 168.8 sq. miles of land and 0.0 sq. miles of water. The winters are long and harsh and the summers are short but warm. After freeze-up the plateau is a source of cold, continental arctic air. Daily minimum temperatures between November and March are usually below 0. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Summer high temperatures run 65 to 72; a high of 97 degrees has been recorded. Total annual precipitation averages 6.5 inches, with 43.4 inches of snowfall. The Yukon River is ice-free from the end of May through mid-September. History: The name Rampart refers to the range of low mountains through which the Yukon passes in this region and which forms the "ramparts" of the Upper Yukon. Rampart City was established in 1897 as a river supply point for gold placer mines in the hills and creek valleys south of the Yukon. News of strikes in Minook Creek, Idaho Bar, Quail Creek, and Eureka Creek, all within 30 miles of Rampart, triggered a rush to the community in 1898 and swelled the population to as high as 10,000 by some estimates. During its heyday, Rampart had a newspaper, hotels, saloons, library, fire department, hospital, and a host of stores and businesses that were typical of the mining towns of that time. The boom was short-lived. New strikes in the Upper Koyukuk River, Anvil Creek, Nome and Fairbanks rapidly depleted the population. By 1903, only a Native community remained among the abandoned homes and businesses. Over time, the population gradually increased as people migrated from Minook Creek. By 1917, about 30 Natives and 30 Whites were living in Rampart. An agricultural experiment station was established by the University of Alaska across the river from Rampart in 1900 to cross-breed grains and legumes. By 1920, more than 90 acres were under cultivation. The station also tested vegetables, strawberries, flowers and field crops. The farm was closed in 1925. An airstrip was constructed by the Alaska Road Commission in 1939. A salmon cannery was established in the 1940s, and a sawmill and logging operation was built in the 1950s. Residents continued to work in nearby gold mines and the local store served as supply point for area operations. The school was closed for the 1999-2000 year due to insufficient students. Consequently, a number of families have moved from the village. Culture: The population of Rampart is predominantly Koyukon Athabascan and is active in subsistence. Economy: Rampart is heavily dependent upon subsistence activities. Salmon, whitefish, moose, caribou, waterfowl and small game provide meat sources. Gardening and berry-picking are also popular. Employment opportunities are part-time or seasonal through the clinic, village council, commercial fishing, or firefighting. Six residents hold commercial fishing permits. Facilities: Most residents haul their own treated water. A new washeteria, well, watering point, water treatment plant, and 35,000-gallon storage tank were recently completed. Honeybuckets or outhouses are used for sewage disposal, and no homes are plumbed. The landfill is not permitted and needs to be relocated away from the airport. Master plans for water, sewer and landfill improvements are underway. Transportation: Air transportation provides the only year-round access. A State-owned 3,500' long by 75' wide lighted gravel airstrip is available. A 30-mile winter trail exists from the Elliott Highway north to Rampart; it is used only during winter months. Approximately half of this road already exists, and the community wants the State to complete a road connection. Fuel and other goods are delivered by barge two or three times each summer. Skiffs and snowmachines are used for subsistence hunting and fishing. Climate: The winters are long and harsh and the summers are short but warm. After freeze-up the plateau is a source of cold, continental arctic air. Daily minimum temperatures between November and March are usually below 0. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common.

Fax Line Venetie Community Overview Current Population: 199 (2003 State Demographer est.) Pronunciation/Other Names: (VEEN-ub-tie) Incorporation Type: Unincorporated Borough Located In: Unorganized School District: Yukon Flats Schools Regional Native Corporation: Not Applicable Location: Venetie is located on the north side of the Chandalar River, 45 miles northwest of Fort Yukon. It lies at approximately 67.013890° North Latitude and -146.41861° West Longitude. (Sec. 10, TO25N, ROOG6E, Fairbanks Meridian.) Venetie is located in the Fairbanks Recording District. The area encompasses 20.8 sq. miles of land and 0.0 sq. miles of water. The winters are long and harsh and the summers are short but warm. Daily minimum temperatures between November and March are usually below 0. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Summer high temperatures run 65 to 72; a high of 97 degrees has been recorded. Total annual precipitation averages 6.58 inches, with 43.4 inches of snowfall. The Chandalar River is ice- free from the end of May through mid-September. History: Known to early explorers as Old Robert's Village or Chandalar Village, Venetie was founded in 1895 by a man named Old Robert who chose Venetie because of its plentiful fish and game. In 1899, the U.S. Geological Survey noted about 50 Natives living on the Chandalar, some in small settlements of cabins about 7 miles above the mouth of the River, but most in the mountainous part of the country beyond the Yukon Flats. He noted that the Natives spent only the coldest winter months in cabins and the remainder of the year traveling for various food sources. In 1905, Venetie was a settlement of a half a dozen cabins and 25 or 30 residents. The gold rush to the Chandalar region in 1906-07 brought a large number of miners. A mining camp of nearly 40 cabins and attendant services was established at Caro upriver from Venetie, and another store was located near the mouth of the East Fork. By 1910, the Chandalar was largely played out and Caro almost completely abandoned. In 1943, the Venetie Indian Reservation was established, due to the combined efforts of the residents of Venetie, Arctic Village, Christian Village and Robert's Fish Camp, who worked together to protect their land for subsistence use. At about this same time, a school was established at Venetie, encouraging additional families to settle in the village. Eventually an airstrip, post office and store were built. During the 1950s and 60s, the use of seasonal camps declined, but the advent of the snowmachine enabled Venetie residents to renew use of areas which had traditionally been occupied seasonally. When the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) was passed in 1971, Venetie and Arctic Village opted for title to the 1.8 million acres of land in the former Reservation, which they own as tenants in common through the Native Village of Venetie Tribal Government. Culture: Venetie is comprised largely of descendants of the Neets'ai Gwich'in, and to a lesser extent the Gwichyaa and Dihaii Gwich'in. The village council is combined with Arctic Village. Subsistence activities are an important part of the local culture. Economy: Venetie is heavily dependent on subsistence. Salmon, whitefish, moose, caribou, bear, waterfowl and small game provide meat sources. Most employment is through the school, clinic, post office, store and village council. The National Guard has used Venetie as a cold weather survival training school. BLM employs residents as fire fighters seasonally. The village is interested in developing a small mill to process local lumber for housing and other projects, and in tourism promotion. Cabins manufactured from local logs could house visitors, developing arts and crafts activities, cultural activities and a museum. Facilities: Water is derived from a well near the Chandalar River, then is treated and stored in a tank. Residents haul water and honeybuckets. A circulating water utilidor system and 49 households service connections were :. constructed in 1980, however, the east loop froze in 1981 and the west loop in 1982. 29 individual household septic tanks were installed in 1980, and also froze during their first winter of operation. Currently, only 8 homes have functioning plumbing. A flush/haul system is under construction in Venetie; 4 homes are currently served. The Stanley Frank Washeteria and Water Treatment Plant were recently completed. It uses a small solar power system to provide some electricity. Transportation: Access to Venetie is almost exclusively by air. The Venetie Tribal Council owns and operates the 4,100' long by 65' wide dirt/gravel airstrip. The Chandalar River provides access by boat from May to October, but there is no barge service, due to shallow water. Motor bikes, 4-wheelers, snowmobiles and dog teams are used for local travel. Climate: The winters are long and harsh and the summers are short but warm. Daily minimum temperatures between November and March are usually below 0. Extended periods of -50 to -60 are common. Summer high temperatures run 65 to 72; a high of 97 degrees has been recorded. Total annual precipitation averages 6.58 inches, with 43.4 inches of snowfall. The Chandalar River is ice-free from the end of May through mid- September.
