Development Plan Dear Board Members: Submitted herewith is the 1985 0.E.D.P. which I hope you will find useful asa guide for present and future economic development in your community. The document seeks to promote development projects among the villages of our region as well as to encourage and support entrepreneurial development. Tt is hoped that the projects set forth in the strategy section of this plan will support current rural development projects, inspire new directions and stimulate thinking about new possibilities. The most valuable assets of our region are our natural, cultural, and human resources. With this.plan, a five year program of support begins to help shape those assets into new industries for our region and to realize our hopes for sustained rural development.

Lauesen II, Economic Development Planner Cathi Moses, Secretary, Office of Planning & Information This Plan is supported with funding from the United States Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration. July, 1985 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To the people of the Tanana Chiefs/Doyon Region I gratefully acknowledge their vital contributions to this effort. Without their support and ideas, this plan would not exist. I am indebted to Spud Williams for his support and wise counsel, and to Ray Kent for his insights and realism. Both allowed me wide latitude to persue the innovative approach to the economic development strategy that constitutes the heart of this plan. Thanks also to Cathi Moses who functioned as researcher, typist, and organizer for t*i§ project. Kathleen Kokrine in word processing put in long and arduous hours getting this in and out of the computer. I wish to acknowledge Will Mayo for sharing with me his own innovative thinking in the development of an integrated village corporate development strategy. The shareholders of Tozitna may yet benefit from his ideas. L further acknowledge particular contributors to this plan who may be surprised to see themselves named herein. I have included those who helped me find both small and large pieces of this development puzzle, whether casually or formally. They are: Alfred Attla, Al Ketzler Jr., Ray Morgan, Carol Lewis, Mark Kenney, Rose Fosdick-IANA, Kelly Hegarty, Jim Kowalsky, Patrick M. Carter (Dye Process), Tobi Petersen, Lisa Jaeger, Terri Vierick, Charles Walsa, Claude Demientieff Jr., Jeff Weltzin, Dave Delong, Franklin Madros, Doug Sweat, Pete Berrie, Fred Elzey,, Phil Berrian, Bill Zufelt, Andy Demoski, Tom Johnson, Mike Smith, Chuck Caldwell, Bob Juettner, John Winninger-FDA, Dr. Bob Elder, Leo McIntyre, Ray Kent, Gale Vick, and Jacki Arradondo. I would like to also acknowledge the efforts of those pioneer EDA planners whose own endeavors in innovation made this path auch easier to tread: Morris Morgan and E. Arthur Patterson. Finally, the staff at EDA have earned my respect for continuing professionalism and bravery in the face of budget cuts: Berney Richert, EDR-Alaska and Lloyd P.

Sec. 7(h) (3) of ANCSA provides that on January 1 of the twenty-first year after the year in which the Act was enacted, all stock previously issued shall be deemed can- celled and shares of stock of the appropriate class shall be issued without restrictions required by this Act to each stockholder share for share. Thus, on January 1, 1992, unless the Law is changed, each Regional and Village ANCSA corporation will be subject to the laws of the economic jungle. Former State OMB Director, Pete McDowell, refers to ANCSA Corporations as "Uniquely Alaskan Corporations" and that their survival is of vital interest to all Alaskans. Rural Alaskans - Native and non-Native - will be hard hit by declining State revenues. The State currently subsidizes the cost of energy through the Power Cost Assistance Program passed by the legislature in Spring, 1984. The State currently pays 100% of rural school construction costs and 100% of operating costs in virtually all communities. The State has invested over 150 million dollars in the past four fiscal years in Capital Projects for the rural portion of the Economic Development District defined by the Doyon Regional Corporate boundaries. These and other benefits which flow directly from the State Treasury to rural communities may be restricted or cut altogether by FY 1990 - final year covered by this plan. Rural Alaskans will also feel the impact of federal budget cutting. Millions have been spent in the Interior of Alaska by H.U.D., E.D.A., the Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies. The $50 billion deficit reduction plan recently designed by the U.S. Senate supports some 60% of the 75 non-military program cutbacks proposed by the President for FY 86. In FY 85, Economic Development proponents were disappointed at the failure of Congress to re-authorize an EDA-like agency, or to establish a national intrastructure program or 1557.1 Page > to provide tax incentive targeted enterprise zones or to boost SBA 503 programs for business development. FY 85 also saw the federal government limit the use of Individual Development Bonds (IDB) and Sale Leasebacks under the Tax Reform Act of 1984. This Act placed a volume cap on IDBs which a jurisdiction might issue. The prospects for the next five years are that resources for federally assisted projects will be lessened. Various forms of tax reform packages emerging from the White House and Congress point to the elimination of tax code- based incentives for private sector investment. If the present trend continues, by FY 1990 we can expect the elimination of all EDA programs, the HUD, UDAG and Section- 108 Loan Guarantees; all SBA programs, including 503 Devel- opment Assistance, 7(a) Loan Guarantees, Job Corps and JTPA; Urban Mass Transit and Rail, Port and Waterway subsidies, and, finally, federal sewer and water grant assistance. Finally, a trend worth noting - equal in significance to budget cutting - is the the trend toward "contracting out" chunks of services currently being provided by the govern- ment, e.g., police and fire protection; prisons and care for the elderly. For the rural communities and corporations, this trend may extend to Parks and Refuge Management. The above recitation of political and economic factors are just a few of those which influenced the direction of this plan. : The next five years of economic development in the district will target village corporate enterprises and entrepreneurial development. The O.E.D.P. process, generally speaking, involves a base plan, the O.E.D.P., a Board and annual updates ("program- ming") at the end of each five-year increment, there are supposed to be a series of measurable accomplishments (e.g., jobs created, revenues generated, public works "on the ground", etc.). The first O.E.D.P. was published in 1975 for the EDD, which takes in the boundaries of the Doyon region, including Fairbanks North Star Borough. A second OEDP was published in 1980 and our current effort to com- plete an OEDP for the TCC/Doyon region will constitute the third such program. Since 1980, when FNSB opted out the the EDD, the Tanana Chiefs Conference has taken the lead for developing economic plans for the rural areas of the EDD. References in the plan to "District", therefore, are synony- mous with the TCC/Doyon region. 1557.2 Page 3 Frankly speaking, past OEDP efforts have fallen short - in the rural areas at least - because they did not undertake serious economic development projects. The projects which drew their attention were public works projects. Perhaps that is as it should have been, because so many of our communities lack the very basics. But this year we are writing a plan which attempts to "inspire" private sector development. To accomplish this, several departures from the past five year plans have been taken: The Plan is enterprise development oriented rather than public works oriented. The OEDP development is inductive rather than deduc- tively based. The plan is "project oriented" rather than "process oriented". The plan is based upon distinctly rural goals and objectives (see following) The projects that have been derived for attention by this year's OEDP not only meet the test of the goals and objec- tives identified below, but also meet the following criteria. These projects: Provide local economic development opportunities Utilize existing local skills Utilize local existing resources Are compatible with existing lifestyle to maximize extent feasible; and In light of 1991, provide opportunities for local corporations. Strategic Approaches Given the foregone factors and influences arrayed around the components of our regional economy, there are several strategic approaches that are implemented in the context of the OEDP projects. The project shall be renewable Resources based; They shall promote consolidation of local projects to gain subregional economies of scale; The projects target village corporate entities and other rural enterprise activities for assistance; They promote export production where possible; They maximize value-added development (e.g., develop as Many stages in production as possible prior to export) particularly where raw resource export currently exists (i.e., fur, fish, timber); They maximize import substitutions by strengthening local production of subsistence and domestic resources; They provide services currently in demand locally but either not being provided or are provided from the "outside" 1557.3 Page 4 Moreover, this plan advocates a rural industry support program by EDA which provides technical assistance to rural enterprises. These broad strategic approaches are the essence of the 1985 OEDP. Together with the projects identified through close working relationship with the regional OEDP Board, the next five years may proceed fruitfully, and meet the challenges confronting the people of rural Interior Alaska. Elstun Lauesen, II July, 1985 1557.4 Page 5 Note: These Goals and Objectives are subject to refinement throughout the programming process. These initial Goals & Objectives are necessarily broad. As programming is initiated, quantifiable targets shall be established by the Board for each project.

HISTORICAL ASSESSMENT OF PAST DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS. The beginning of EDA's involvement through the Economic Develop- ment District (EDD) begins in 1974 with the organization of the Fairbanks Town and Village Association For Development, Inc. (FTVAD). The Tanana Chiefs Conference, Inc./Doyon Regional Corporation boundaries were established as the boundary of the Economic Development District. (SEE Figure IV-1). The FTVAD was the representative organization for the Interior of Alaska from 1974-1981. However, this organization terminated operations in December, 1981 and TCC assumed the lead role in EDA planning for the region in January, 1982. The Economic Development Administration provided an initial grant to TCC in late 1981 and with this grant and extensions, TCC was able to develop and implement procedures and plans to meet the economic development needs of the rural portion of the EDD. Political Factors Affecting Development Since FY 1975 economic development in the District has been affected by a series of political factors including: ° The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANSCA). ° The Construction and Impacts of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS). ° Capital Project Spending by the State of Alaska. ° Implementation of Alaska Lands Conservation Measures passed by Congress during FY 81. ° Measures passed by Congress during FY 81. The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) propelled Alaska Natives into the center stage of a highly charged political, social and economic drama being acted out in contemporary Alaska. Alaska Natives found themselves case in a role bearing political and economic clout. And while Alaska Natives were beneficiaries of opportunities presented by the Act, they were also victimized by misunderstanding by non-Native Alaskans and the constraints of the Act itself. To complicate matters, the polarization resulting from the Act was not confined to Alaska Natives and non-Natives. Within the Native community itself, tensions and suspicions surrounding the Act grew. A "neotraditionalist" movement among Alaska Natives grew during the late 70s and the 80s seeking what has been termed the "retribalization" of rural Native villages. Retribalization is an option growing, in part, out of concerns that ANCSA wrongfully’ vests the land, seen as fundamental to cultural survival, into vulnerable profit Corporations. Since FY 75, the District has seen some important mergers among the Native Village Corporations: Gana'A'Yoo in the Yukon-Koyukuk Subdistrict, Koyitl'otsina in the Yukon-Tanana Subdistrict, and MTNT in the Upper Kuskokwim Subdistrict. Each of these merged Corporations has tended to focus upon select activities in the Page 14 1463.2 area of economic investment such as, respectively, the Middle Yukon Fishery; Timber; and Real Estate and Trade. For Alaska generally, the Village Corporations have fared signif- icantly less well than have the Regional Corporations. For a variety of reasons, this is understandable. The majority of corporations have received much less in investment resources and have been very much impacted by the extremely slow conveyance of land, which could be used as a base for profitable ventures. With regard to land selections by village corporations a much greater degree of specific selections were made, not only poten- tial for profitable use, but an understandable desire to acquire sites with strictly cultural value to the associated Native village. Although several of these corporations have situated corporate operations in larger cities such as Anchorage and Fairbanks, most are physically and in all other significant respects based in remote villages well outside the mainstream of the Alaska business community. These small village corporations are extremely restricted by resources and available expertise with regard to their ability to establish and maintain successful business ventures. Finally, the opportunity for successful business enterprise is greatly restricted. Many of these village corporations are failing. A minimal amount of technical assistance has been provided to a limited number of these village corporations through assistance projects funded by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, other Federal and State agencies, and some private foundations. However, this assistance has been miniscule and piecemeal, at least measured against the enormous need. Unless more resources are brought to bear on this problem of economic survival of ANCSA village corporations, it can only be fairly predicted that a very few will survive over the long term. Absent some change in the laws which protect the Native character of these corporations, it can be expected that those which do survive to 1991 will be attractive for acquisition by non-Native business organizations for their remaining corporate assets (valuable land). It is unlikely these corporations will be unable to resist corporate takeovers and this will result ina total loss of all that was hoped to be gained by the Act and, perhaps more importantly, Alaska Native control over irreplace- able cultural heritage assets (land). As with ANCSA, the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980 created polarization with the Development District. A division was created under the law between the “rural" and the "urban" residents of Alaska with respect to the implementation of ANILCA's "Subsistence" use mandate. Under that provision known as "Section 810 Provisions", rural residents are determined to be priority users of fish and game resources when use must be restricted. Page 15 1463.3 In order to maintain consistency with the federal law, the State of Alaska established a State Subsistence Priority Law which closely tracked the federal mandate. An all-out political challenge to the State Law was launched by sport-hunting groups in the urban areas of the state. And while the subsistence priority law survived the political challenge, significant questions of policy continue to be asked regarding the allocation of fish and game resources among the various competing groups of users in the state. The construction of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) between FY 75 and FY 77 had significant social impacts upon rural villages in the Development District. In rural Alaska, young Native Men and Women were hired by minority-hungry construction firms. High paying jobs generated unprecedented mobility and income among the prime wage-earning sector of the rural popula- tion. The drive to maintain high paying construction jobs close to home may have induced some of the infrastructure development that partially satisfied that drive. Rural capital project spending between 1980-1984 in the District amounted to an esti- mated $158 million (SEE Table IV-A, below.) Large portions of these dollars went into school construction, roads, airports, docks, and erosion control. Other major expen- ditures include electrification, water and sewer. In the ten years that have intervened since the establishment of the District, virtually all villages in the EDD have become electrified; virtually all villages have adequate communication and transpor- tation infrastructure to maintain commerce with the rest of Alaska and the world; all villages are participants in a rural health care delivery system which provides a "first line" of health care to the remote communities in the District. Every village has a clinic and each subdistrict center has the services of a health care professional. Sanitary facilities are in place in most villages including water treatment plants, sewage lagoons and sanitary landfills with the result of reduced disease and a raised living standard throughout the District. TABLE IV-A. Capital Project Expenditures By The State of Alaska FY 81-85. (in Thousands of dollars) FY 81 FY 82 FY 83 FY 84 FY 85 $44,236 $29,085 $ 7554 $40,000* $37,699 *Estimate Assessment The backdrop created by these various factors has established a conscious direction for the next five years in this district for economic development projects. 1463.4 Page 16 First, the record for capital projects in the rural areas demon- strates tremendous "leakages" out of the rural areas into urban areas and even out of the state. An excellent study on this phenomenon was done by the now defunked Economic Development Council (See Rainery, Richard, Distribution of Economic Benefits of Rural Capital Construction Funding, Rural Development Council; 1982). Thus, the recommendation has been formulated to encourage joint ventures and consolidated rural capital project packages to occur over the next five years. The objective of consolidation will be to establish a subregional economy of scale to permit headquarters operations in rural areas, materials production and supply (esp. lumber products), and warehousing, drayage, and resupply centers in the subdistricts. Next, there is a logic to focusing upon rural resource develop- ment. Projects will be identified which emphasize renewable resources that are generally available on the surface estates of the village corporations. These projects will target production and marketing goals that are consistent with existing resources and skills in rural communities. (See Development Strategy, Section VII, below). There appears to be motivation to enhance both subsistence and cultivated harvestable resources in the rural areas of this District. Since FY 79, small village agriculture projects have grown from less than 500 to more than 2,000. A logical step, therefore, is to proceed to integrate this productivity into more complex ventures such as small-scale meat, dairy and poultry projects. The more complete the structure of local production, the greater the import substitution may be realized in the village micro-economy. Along with the impacts of ANCSA comes the pressures from "1991" when the stock protections established under the Act shall be removed and the village and regional corporations shall be subject to acquisition and loss of assets. There is a keen interest among some members of the village corporate sector to undertake prudent ventures in areas like tourism. Consistent with the discrete character of each corporation, these ventures are envisioned as being low-volume, high return "specialty" tourism projects. Each tour project would take advantage of the cultural and historic strengths inherent in the host corporation. Each of the projects contained in Section VII has been derived, at least indirectly, from the challenges and consequences of past development efforts in the District. 1463.5 Page 17 SECTION V. 1463.6 Page 18 Vv. THE AREA AND ITS ECONOMY Alaska's population in 1984 was 524,000. The 1984 population estimates for the Fairbanks North Star Borough (FSNB) were 69,633, and for the City of Fairbanks 24,103. Table 1, following, enumerated the Interior region's population using 1980 U.S. Census data. The Column with July 1, 1984 estimates was provided by the State Demographer. Eighty percent of the population resided in the FSNB, and 39 percent of the Borough resided in the City of Fairbanks (to include Fort Wainwright). The Native population of the region totaled 8,050 (FSNB 1,400, City of Fairbanks 1,600) and constituted 12 percent of the region's population. Growth centers and larger communities based on 1984 figures are: Healy 327, Nulato 388, McGrath 499, Tanana 444, Nenana 544, Anderson 468, Tok 608, Fort Yukon 665, City of North Pole 1,005, Galena (including USAF) 894, Delta-Fort Greely 3,280.

FAIRBANKS AREA SUMMARY An Article in Alaska Construction and Oil (Jan., 1984) provides a journalists perspective on recent changes on Fairbanks as a result of Economic Conditions. "Last year saw a change in the growth of Fairbanks. From the quiet city on the Chena River ... a modern, growing city is emerging. Building permits are on the rise and housing areas are growing by leaps and bounds in totally unexpected areas and quantities. As with Anchorage, with housing growth has come small commercial developments popping up every- where in Fairbanks. At least this time, it appears that this year's growth rate will continue in Fairbanks through 1984. According to the 30 economic indicators reviewed by the Fairbanks North Star Borough Community Research Center, economic activity is increasing steadily. Deposits held in commercial and mutual Savings banks reached a record $363 million in 1984, and money on loan from those banks reached a record $268.4 million. This vigorous business environment reflects a massive public and private investment in our area. The state has spent hundreds of new businesses have been born in that time, and commercial properties and shopping malls in the area have expanded at an unprecedented rate. Since 1980, the increase in commercial property valuation in the North Star Borough has jumped from $225 million to $450 million. The amount of monies in deposit in Fairbanks area banks continues to show record highs with an estimated $390.9 million on deposit, September 30, 1984. An estimated $2,964 million was on loan from Fairbanks area banks on September 30, 1984. Monthly passengers at the airport continue to show their highest levels since 1976 (midst of the pipeline construction) with 45,882 passengers through Fairbanks Int'l. during September 1984 and 71,847 during August 1984. Both monies represented increases over comparable months in 1983. The total value of agricultural production in the Tanana Valley in 1982 was $3.8 million, 18% higher than the 1981 total. The largest crop harvested in the Tanana Valley in 1982 was barley, which comprised 48% of the 15,587 acres harvested during the year. There were a total of 41,800 active mining claims in the 24 quadrangles by the Mining Districts within the TCC region during 1984 (SEE Table VI-A, below). Overall, the State picture for 1984 was mixed. Exploration down 35% from 1983 while development expenditures were up 91% from 1983, a total dollar value of $53.6 million. Coal production was up 6% as a result of coal shipments from the Usibelli mine to the Seward Coal Terminal in late 1984. 1463.8 Page 20 The approval by the 1985 session of the State Legislature of a $170 million infrastructure package to support Red Dog Mine may have some spillover impact upon the TCC region. Please see Alaska Minerals Industry 1984 Report, prepared by the State of Alaska, Office of Mineral Development. In FY 1985 construction activity in Fairbanks confirmed at a high level resulting from FY 1984 capital project appropriations in the Borough and Rural Regions (Est. 150 million dollars) and significant inputs from the federal government for Corps of Engineers Conservation and Defense Expenditures (Est. 75 million dollars). According to The Community Research Arterly (Winter 1984) published by the Fairbanks North Star Borough, the construc- tion activity reached the highest quarterly value observed since 1977 in the Fairbanks. area. The following information on areas within the Interior region was excerpted from Interior Alaska Transportation Study, Vol. II. Louis Berger & Assoc. 1983. Communities associated with mineral development, usually placer gold, that were connected by road to the state highway system experienced the greatest growth. Communities along major highways generally experienced high rates of growth, although lower than mining communities. Yukon River communities experienced moderate increases, with regional hubs experiencing high rates of growth. The Koyukuk River communities experienced low or negative growth rates. PARKS HIGHWAY COMMUNITIES These communities have experienced population increases varying from over 2 percent per year in Nenana to over 5 percent in the Healy/Usibelli area. Overall, this group of communities has experienced a 3.6 percent per year increase attributable to government expansion and the development of service industries catering to tourist traffic along the highway. In Nenana, the development of agriculture is being vigorously pursued, and is assumed to increase population growth rates above historic levels. Healy/Usibelli area is expected to sustain high popula- tion growth rates related to further development (for export) of coal resources. ALASKA HIGHWAY COMMUNITIES As a whole, communities on or near the Alaska Highway experienced just under 7 percent per year population increase excluding Fort Greely. The growth experienced in the area is attributable to state government expansion, oil pipeline related activities, toa lesser extent, development of agriculture in the area and growth associated with an increase in tourist traffic along the highway. It is expected that these high growth rates will continue at lower rates in the near future as government growth and pipeline activity will decrease while agricultural development and tourist traffic will continue at historical levels. Page 21 1463.9 MINING COMMUNITIES WITH ROAD CONNECTIONS Mining communities connected by roads to the Alaska Highway System experienced the highest growth rates in the region, generally attributed to mining activity ... Communities which best illustrate this phenomenon are Eagle and Manley Hot Springs, which experienced yearly growth rates of 9 and 16 percent from 1970 to 1980. As a group, mining communities with road access experienced an 11 percent per year increase in population. Future growth for such communities is greatly dependent upon developments external to the communities, such as road and facility improvements, discovery of new deposits and work gold prices. UPPER YUKON RIVER COMMUNITIES From 1970 to 1980, these communities experienced growth rates of between 1.7 and 3.9 percent per year except Beaver and Chalkyitsik (-4.2 and -3.09 percent). Fort Yukon is expected to become the seat of government in the future and is assumed to have growth rates double that of other communities. Rampart, with active placer gold mines and the potential for future mineral related development is expected to have higher than regional growth rates of about 2 percent per year. MIDDLE YUKON RIVER COMMUNITIES Communities along the Middle Yukon have experienced relatively moderate and uniform growth rates between .5 and 3 percent per year. It seems reasonable that this trend will continue. Ruby, adjacent to mineral activities is likely to experience a slightly higher growth rate .... Tanana ... is likely to increase but at a slower rate. In the case of Galena, population growth has been dramatic, almost 10 percent per year over a ten year period. Military facilities there greatly impact the character and economy of the community, and Galena serves as a service hub for surrounding communities. KOYUKUK RIVER COMMUNITIES The Koyukuk River communities, as a rule, have decreased in population over the ten year period from 1970 to 1980. The lone exception, Huslia, has experienced a modest increase of slightly more than one percent per year. The area trend is attributable to out-migration, however, it is assumed that future out-migration will not exceed the natural birth rate plus in-migration. EMPLOYMENT AND INCOME Increased employment and higher income are major objectives throughout the Interior region., In-depth data collection and forecasts are made by the State Department of Labor for the Anchorage, Juneau, Fairbanks areas, but there are no consistent programs that assess the rural employment and labor force. The Page 22 1463.10 civilian unemployment rate for Fairbanks in September 1984 was 12.0 percent which compared with the U.S. Role of 7.1 percent. The Fairbanks area according to the Winter 1984 Issue of the Community Research Quarterly "Consistently remains several percentage points above the Alaska rate (which was 8.3% for the same period. The Research (bid) goes on to state that employment levels in 1984 showed some of the highest gross totals for employment for certain months since 1976. The September 1984 estimate of 23,532 persons was about 2% higher than the previous year. A different type economy exists in the rural areas of Interior Alaska, a combination of wage and subsistence. The unemployment rate is significantly higher than in the Fairbanks area, especially so in the smaller and more remote villages - estimated at 30-50 percent in the open season and higher during freezeup. Growth centers have a somewhat lower unemployment rate. Rural centers obtain regular employment with state, federal, and local agencies, village corporations, and regional nonprofit organizations, some of which is part time. Seasonal wage income is important in construction, fire fighting, commercial fishing, trapping. Tourism and related industries, particularly in the highway communities, and increased mining activities in certain areas have made visible inputs to the rural economy, but the employment base of regular jobs is narrow, and the seasonal work opportunities are limited and sometimes sporadic. Subsistence values are obtained principally from hunting and fishing, small agriculture endeavors, timber for fuel wood, housing and general utility and barter. Comprehensive data on employment and the work force on Interior communities is virtually nonexistent. The only published figures of any scope are those found in the Alaska Department of Labor statistical quarterlies. The statistical quarterly data is presented by census district and by industry in conformity with Standard Industrial Classifications. Significant segments of employment are not included in the figures, specifically self- employed persons and persons involved in traditional activities such as fishing, hunting and trapping. These forms of employment are exceedingly important in the Interior region. Page 23 1463.11 SECTION VI. Page 24 1463.12 VI. POTENTIALS FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MINERALS: PRESENT AND POTENTIALS A number of metallic minerals have been produced in the area, the earliest and most significant of which is gold. Fairbanks became the highest gold-producing district in Alaska. Besides gold, important production minerals are silver, antimony, tin, tungsten, lead and zinc. Other metals under active exploration include copper, molybdenum, cobalt, chroium, nickel, platinum and uranium. Gold is the major metal produced in Alaska today. The present annual statewide production is estimated at around 120,000 ounces, two-thirds of which comes from placer and lode mining in the area. POTENTIAL PRODUCTION AREAS Of the major mineral sites identified, the "Delta Belt" southwest of Tok and the "Golden Zone" adjacent to Denali Park are of particular interest. The former is a zone of massive sulphide deposits containing copper, lead, zinc and silver of grades similar to the deposits in the Ambler district in northwest Alaska. The Golden Zone contains high-grade deposits of gold associated with silver, tin, copper, lead and zinc. Mines developed in this area would not be large, but production would be of high value. There are a number of mineral locations in the area being developed or that have potentials for development: Fairbanks district, tungsten-antimony products; Kantishna district, gold-antimony production; Quigley and Stampede, significant silver, lead, zinc, tungsten ore bodies identified; upper Sulcha and Charley Rivers, active exploration for development of tungsten. Other highly mineralized or development potentials are for chromite, tin- tungsten, copper-lead-zinc, placer and lode gold deposits, antimony-tungsten, copper-molybdenum, copper-lead-zinc-silver, copper-silver. COAL, OIL AND GAS The Usibelli Mine currently produces about 800,000 tons of coal per year with the market area primarily the Fairbanks area. Current negotiations with Sun Eel Corporation of Korea, if firmed, will double production. There are other Pacific rim potentials. Domestic demand for electrical power may increase, and a small increase in consumption of direct-heating fuel is expected. The lease holders of the Jarvis Creek coal field have submitted an application to the Bureau of Land Management for opening a coal mine to produce coal for sale in the Delta Junction, Tok, Paxson Lake and Glennallen areas. Production would be on the order of 30,000 tons per year. Several isolated coal bodies which may supply local heating needs occur elsewhere in the area. There has been no oil or gas production in the area. Of the several sedimentary basins having structures favorable for the Page 25 1463.13 occurrence of oil and gas, the Yukon Flats and Kandik basins in the eastern part of the area are considered to have a moderate potential, and the remainder a low potential for the discovery of oil. INDUSTRIAL MINERALS By far the largest nonfuel mineral production in Alaska is that of sand and gravel, ranking third behind oil and gas in dollar value. Sand, gravel, and crushed stone will continue to be produced from the abundant sources of the materials in the area in response to the demands of construction projects. A signifi- cant asbestos deposit located southwest of Eagle is being developed by Doyon, Ltd., in partnership with other mining firms. Limestone suitable for cement or fertilizer occurs at a number of places in the area. Large deposits suitable for cement production are located in the Cantwell-Foggy Pass area. Vast quantities of fertilizer-grade limestone exist in the Tanana lowlands and surrounding hills northwest of Fairbanks, within 30 miles of the Alaska Railroad.

The estimated production of lumber, houselogs, and timbers in the area is approximately 1.4 million cubic feet or 5.7 million board feet. This compares to the consumption total for lumber and houselogs of approximately 4.8 million cubic feet, or 19 million board feet. Thus, the area is supplying almost one third of the total local demand for these products. The area also utilizes over 6.8 million cubic feet (77,000 cords) of fuelwood annually, much of it obtained from dunnage or con- struction projects. Over 1 million cubic feet of roundlogs and cants were exported to Korea and Japan in 1979, and larger volumes were exported in the peak years of 1973-1974. Currently, no volume is being exported from the area. Total current produc- tion of lumber, houselogs, and fuelwood (including dunnage) is therefore approximately 8.2 million cubic feet, of which about 6 million is obtained from state, federal, private land, or dunnage. Three factors determine the supply of timber in Interior Alaska: the biological productivity of the stands; management policies of the landowners; the accessibility of the stands. BIOLOGICAL PRODUCTIVITY The most important species on commercial forest land is white spruce. It is found with paper birch and aspen on well-drained, upland sites and with balsam poplar and black cottonwood on the floodpain. White spruce comprises more than half of the mer- chantable volume in the interior, while birch makes up about one-fifth. In order to better estimate the total allowable cut, the area was divided into two subregions: the Yukon and Tanana subregions. In the Yukon subregion there has been little management and most of the stands are poorly stocked. In this area, 14 cubic feet per acre per year is a reasonable and conservative estimate of the allowable cut. About two-thirds of the total commercial forest land in the area lies in this subregion, or approximately 6.7 million cubic feet. The most productive forest lands in the study area lie in the Tanana subregion. The areas for the greatest potential for commercial forestry are: 1) the area north of Tok; 2) the area north of Delta Junction; 3) the area near the confluence of the Kantishna and Tanana Rivers; 4) the area southwest of Fairbanks. Approximately 3.3 million acres of commercial forest land in these areas could probably sustain a higher allowable cut equal to the minimum productivity on commer- cial forest land of 20 cubic feet per acre per year, or 66 million cubic feet annually. Therefore, the total allowable cut for both the Tanana and Yukon subregions is roughly 160 million cubic feet, without adjusting for accessibility or land manage- ment policies. PRESENT ACCESSIBILITY Page 28 1463.16 Much of the commercial forest land in the Interior lies in remote areas. How much of this land is accessible for timber extraction is difficult to determine because many existing trails are not shown on available maps, and ice roads are used frequently for winter hauling. If the stumpage price is low enough, and there is an adequate volume of material, winter roads over 15 miles long may be constructed economically. Ice roads over 26 miles in length have been built to haul salvage material (dead wood). It is assumed that under normal circumstances, timber located within 15 miles of the nearest road or navigable river is currently accessible. It is estimated that about one third of the commer- cial forest area lies within 15 miles of a major road or river, or roughly 3 million acres. The most productive stands and the most accessible are in the Tanana subregion, due to the relatively large number of roads and the Alaska Railroad. Approximately two-thirds of the commercial forest land lies within 15 miles of the railroad, a major road, or a river. It is assumed that on the average, these commercial forest could produce a minimum of 20 cubic feet per acre per year, and a total of 46 million cubic feet could be harvest annually on accessible lands in this subregion. About one-fifth of the Yukon subregion forest lands are accessible by river but there are fewer highly productive stands. Therefore, a lower estimate of the average growth, or 14 cubic feet per acre, was used to calculate a rough estimate of the allowable cut. This results in approximately 18 million cubic feet which could be harvested annually on accessible lands in these areas. In the entire area, the allowable cut on accessible commercial forest land is roughly 64 million cubic feet per year. MANAGEMENT POLICIES The three major land owners in the Interior are the State and Federal governments and the Native Corporations, and all have different policies for development. On federal lands within national parks and preserves, lands are no open to commercial forest operations. On the whole, the supply of timber from federal land will probably be sufficient only for some fuelwood and a few cabins in each village annually. The state is currently the most important supplier of timber and state lands also have the greatest potential for expanding the timber supply. However, the state policy on timber cutting is currently in a state of flux in most of the Interior. Land selections and conveyances are not complete and the status of forest lands is uncertain. In summary, it is difficult to determine what the supply of timber will be from state lands. If forest reserves are established and if the timber from agricul- tural land clearing operations is sold, the supply of timber may increase considerably. If reserves are not established, the Page 29 1463.17 current allowable cut may be decreased significantly for the Interior. Native corporations will own (ANCSA) approximately 12 million acres of land, much of it forested: Doyon Ltd. (regional corpo- ration) 8.4; the village corporations 3.6 million acres. Four village corporations have harvested some timber: Toghotthele Corporation, Nenana; Gana-A'Yoo, Galena; Tetlin; Healy Lake. Other village corporations have expressed an interest in harvesting timber. TCC has conducted detailed and up-to-date inventories for several Interior village corporations. Doyon Ltd. hopes to initiate a cooperative agreement with Minto, Manley Hot Springs, and the State Department of Natural Resources to harvest timber along the lower Tanana and Kantishna Rivers and to establish a sawmill to receive logs from the entire area. Currently, other Doyon lands are considered to be too low in volume to justify development unless the stumpage price increases considerably. In summary, the biological allowable cut in the area is estimated to be in the range of 160 million cubic feet per year ata minimum. When allowance is made for the area which is currently accessible, this figure decreases to approximately 64 million cubic feet. Finally, current land management policies limit the harvest to roughly 0.8 million cubic feet on federal land, and estimated 4.6 million cubic feet on state land and 1.3 million cubic feet on Native-owned land, for a total of roughly 5.9 million cubic feet. This is less than 10 percent of the estimated accessible allowable cut. PRODUCTION OF LUMBER AND HOUSELOGS Ten commercial sawmills are currently operating in the area. These are located in Galena, Huslia, Nenana, Tok, Delta Junction, Manley Hot Springs, and Fairbanks (4). Several villages operate noncommercial/cooperative mills: Ruby; Tanana: Eagle. In those villages in the region which do not have a sawmill, TCC provides a portable mill for short-term use. Interest in sawmilling has increased dramatically since 1975. The director of this TCC program expects that each village in the region will have one sawmill by 1985. The volume produced by the noncommercial mills in the region is estimated to vary between 12 and 48 thousand board feet for a total of 120 to 480 thousand board feet per year. MARKET AREAS FOR LUMBER AND HOUSELOGS There are three potential markets for Interior lumber, timbers, and houselogs. First, there is a substantial local demand which could absorb much more local production than is currently avail- able. Second, there may be a market outside the region in the villages of the Yukon and Kuskokwim deltas where timber supplies are scarce. Third, there is a market for local wood products in oil, mining, and agricultural developments both within the region and on the North Slope and western coast of Alaska. The local Page 30 1463.18 market has the greatest potential for growth. There is at present more demand for rough, green lumber than local producers can supply. In addition, a large market for seasoned spruce continues to expand and may be captured by local producers if an assured source of timber is available. FUELWOOD People are using large quantities of fuelwood. The estimated consumption of fuelwood in the Fairbanks area increased more than 700 percent from 1976 to 1981 on state lands along. In villages not connected to the road system, approximately 90 to 100 percent of the households burn wood. Villages at the ends of the road system which are not mining towns have approximately 70 to 80 percent of their households burning wood. Mining communities and those connected by minor roads have 50 to 70 percent of the households burning wood. Those households which use wood are estimated to burn an average of 8 cords per year, according to informal interviews in the communities. Future fuelwood consumption depends on a number of factors including: the price of alternative fuels; personal income and population; the availability of fuelwood; energy conservation programs. FISHERIES RESOURCE Figures VI-1, VI-2, VI-3, VI-4, VI-5 (following) depicts the Alaska Department of Fish and Game Commercial Fishery Management Districts within the Interior region. The Upper Yukon area is divided into three management districts: 4; 5; 6. Over one-half the salmon harvested are caught in District 4. This area is well known for its commercial roe fishery. In many cases, the value of (chum) salmon roe exceeds the value of the fish, and during 1984, a total of 169,552 pounds of roe was sold by commercial fisherman in Districts 4, 5, and 6. Air freight is the primary means of fish and roe transport within District 4 as well as to processing destinations outside the area. Fish quantities harvested in 1984 in District 5 are nearly 1/4 those of District 4. Small private aircraft and truck are the primary means of fish transport in District 5. Commercial harvests in District 6 averaged somewhat more than those in District 5 in 1984. Aircraft and barges (to a lesser extent) facilitate transport of fish from river harvest locations to Fairbanks and Nenana. Small planes are used to transport fish short distances within the study area. For example the Cessna 207 is used to haul fish from river locations of Koyukuk, Nulato and Kaltag to Galena for processing. From Galena, the fish are then flown longer distances in larger planes - namely to Unalakleet, Bethel, Fairbanks and Anchorage. 1463.19 Page 31 Table a B Upper Yukon area conmercial salmon catch and roe production, 1984. a/ Summer chums Fall chums No. of Equiv.

From Kallands one operation is known to pack fish into freezer vans and barge them to Nenana for processing. The highway crossing at the Yukon River plays an important role for transport of fish from District 5 locations. At present salmon populations in the Upper Yukon Management area are near the maximum sustainable yields. However, should the fish be harvested for roe as well as for flesh, an increase is possible in fish production in the Middle Yukon. In 1984, 186,325 chums were commercially harvested in District 4. The roe catch, représented by 177,691 equivalent chum totals constitutes 91.0% of the commercial catch in District 4. The roe catch equivalent for other districts is relative to chum catch: 50% district 5; 72% district 6 (SEE Table VI-B). Carcasses of salmon from which roe had been extracted and sold were dried and retained for subsistence use or sold as dog food. Future increases in commercial salmon production in the Interior are tied closely to the successful marketing of chum salmon, particularly those harvested in District 4. Successful marketing of chum salmon in this area presents a challenge due to the remoteness of the area, attendant high transportation costs and logistical problems. When roe delivery data is compared with production of flesh in District 4, opportunities for increased commercial production are evident. As fishermen, processors, and brokers become more familiar with the potential for stable production at acceptable quality and price levels, growth in utilization rates will occur. Greater utilization presently occurs in the upper section of District 4, from Nulato to Kallands, due to the proximity to Galena's transportation and processing facilities. The Huntington Fisheries plant at Galena uses fast, small boats to tender fish from Nulato and other points in the area to Galena. This method compares favorably in cost with small aircraft which dominate the transport of fish from Anvik to Kaltag. The Data, Tables, and figures for this part are adopted from The Annual Management Report, 1984 Yukon Area ; Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Commercial Fisheries (1985). P 1463.20 adhity TOURISM RESOURCE Tourism is the second largest industry in Alaska. It is a labor intensive industry which offers employment in skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled positions. It particularly offers entry level unskilled jobs for minorities and the overlooked persons ina society. Additionally, it offers career patterns leading to stable, year-round management positions in many areas of the industry. Typical categories of employment directly generated by the visitor industry include: lodging and food/beverage service, automobile repairs and maintenance, retail trades, transportation services. Secondary employment is generated by suppliers to the above firms as well as by the multiplier effect which causes additional spending of dollars within the community. Tourism also helps to redistribute income from urban to rural areas, particularly as it expands into new and previously untapped regions. It is renewable, and relatively nonpolluting. Tourism helps to preserve the heritage of Alaska's Native cul- tures and gold rush and these are among the most often given reasons for visitors coming to Alaska. Contributions by all ethnic groups and cultivation of pride in the varied heritages have long been goals of the Alaskan visitor industry. Mainte- nance of a renewed interest in Native arts, dance and culture and development of Alaska's museums have been of primary interest to the visitor industry. The number of visitors to Alaska in 1973 to 1980 has grown from 215,000 to 600,000. The Division of Tourism estimates that during 1985 seven hundred and fifty thousand visitors could be attracted to Alaska. This estimated volume is down from produc- tions not over one million tourists would visit Alaska in 1985. This "adjustment" is due to the foreign exchange weakness in other world currencies relative to the dollar. For some key tourist countries such as West Germany, Japan, and Canada, the foreign exchange crisis has effectively increased the cost of travel for foreign tourists by as much as 50% over the past two years. Despite this reduced growth, tourism is still quite healthy and The Tourism Division of the State Department of Commerce predicts a steady 7-10% per annum growth through the end of this century. According to the Alaska Traveler Survey and Visitor Industry Analysis published by the Division in 1983, nearly two-thirds of all visitors to Alaska probably or definitely will return to Alaska, 25% of all visitors to Alaska have a household income of $60,000 or more, over 43% of the visitors are professionals and over one-quarter of all visitors have attained post-graduate education. This profile indicates that there exists a potential to tap a well-educated, affluent tourist market either during initial or during return trips to Alaska. The return visitor and some 1463.21 Page 39 highly motivated first-time visitors to the state may well be in the market for specialized tours which offer an in-depth view of the society, history and natural resources of rural Alaska. Page 40 1463.22 AGRICULTURE: PRODUCTION AND POTENTIALS Agricultural areas capable of producing grain include the Delta, Fairbanks, Nenana, and Yukon Valley areas. The Delta and Nenana areas have been identified by the state for development. The total acreage in these two areas containing soils most suitable for grain production is approximately 600,000 acres. If rangeland is included in the Nenana area, total agricultural land could increase by one million acres. In Galena, Native owned lands totaling 150,000 acres have potential for grain development as do Native and state lands of almost two million acres in the vicinity of Fort Yukon. However, lands near Galena and Fort Yukon are not expected to be developed as quickly for economic, social and political reasons. Native land owners have not used land for agricultural purposes other than the establishment of small garden plots, but some village corporations are considering development of agriculture on corporation lands. Based on experience from present small grain projects, it is anticipated that 60 percent of the land designated for agricul- tural development in the Nenana and Delta areas will be used to produce small grain, mostly barley. The remainder of the land would most likely be used for livestock and forage crops. Exceptions to this pattern of grain production may be the culti- vation of rapseed, an oilseed crop, or perhaps wheat. Three factors will determine future production and marketing patterns of grain in the Interior region: land availability; production cost; growth patterns in the livestock industry. The most important is the availability of land. Other than barley, all of the grain crops that can be produced, including rapseed, must be considered high risk crops. Barley produced in the Interior will initially supply in-state livestock markets. Once the local demand for barley is met, excess production will continue only if barley can be produced below world market price. Expansion of barley production then will depend on production costs. LIVESTOCK The production of livestock in the Interior is dependent upon the availability of land used to produce such feed. In addition, the ability of livestock producers to supply existing markets competatively is an important factor. Finally, the location of feedlots and packing plants will be the key factor affecting production in the Interior. Livestock production is expected to increase as grain production increases until all competitive livestock markets are supplied or until packing facility capacity is reached. The potential market of livestock produced in the Interior is limited to the Realbelt and Anchorage areas. It is unlikely that the export of livestock or livestock has been estimated to be 50,000 head of finished beef, 75,000 hogs and 6,000 dairy cows. Based on annual feed 1463.23 Page 41 consumption rates of 724 pound of barley per hog, 1.45 tons per head of beef and 2.9 tons per lactating dairy cow, in-state consumption of barley would be 17,000 tons annually. This amount of barley could easily be produced in lands potentially available in Delta and Nenana. Of the livestock capable of being raised in the Interior, only beef cattle and hogs are expected to be produced in commercial quantities. Due to price and cost considerations, production will be limited to supplying the domestic Alaska market. Milk produced in the Interior will be consumed locally. Production of milk in excess of local markets will be consumed elsewhere within the Interior region.

There are four census divisions which cover the majority of our region. b) d) a) Upper Yukon b) Southeast Fairbanks c) Kuskokwim d) Yukon-Koyukuk Upper Yukon: The Upper Yukon Census District which covers the Yukon Flats subregion and part of the Fairbanks subregion of the TCC service area had a wage and salary employment total of 379 during 1980. Of that total, 34 were employed by the federal government, 208 by state and local governments, and 15 by the military for a total public sector employment in the Upper Yukon district of 257 or 68% of wage employment. The other districts reveal a similar pattern. Southeast Fairbanks: Government employment constitutes 80% of the total wage and salary employees (including military). Kuskokwim: In this district government employment equals 76% of the non-military employment, and Yukon-Koyukuk: In this district, government employment equals 57%. In terms of dollars, these percentages account for Upper Yukon 11.8 million (643%) Southeast Fairbanks 33.3 million (803%) Kuskokwim 11.6 million (76%) Yukon-Koyukuk 37.2 million (57%) Page 43 1463.25 VII. DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY A. Strategic Approach: 63 projects have been identified as having the potential to meet the goals and objectives developed by the OEDP committee to guide this plan (SEE part B). Over the next year these 63 projects will be narrowed to a smaller group of target projects through a prioritization process. It is not anticipated that all 63 projects are implementable during the 5 year period covered by this plan. Moreover, some projects are already underway in the District while some have not even been explored as to feasibility other than the preliminary analyses which lead to the inclusion of a project onto this listing. As of this writing, it is not possible to identify which projects shall be completed or begun by a certain date. B. Goals & Objectives: The following goals and objectives underpin the economic development planning for the Tanana Chiefs region for the five year period covered by this plan. 1. Enhance subsistence resource use in rural communities. 2. Develop local resources for an "export" market. 3. Reduce the out-migration of skilled young persons from the rural village. 4, Upgrade the skills base residing in rural communities to support economic development projects. . 5. Develop adequate public infrastructure in the villages to support economic development projects. 6. Stabilize the cost of energy over the long-term in rural Alaska. 7. Develop access to key markets for goods produced in rural Alaska. Cc. Project Categories: A large number of development plans have been reviewed by the Economic Development Planner over the past year. A representative bibliography is attached (SEE Attachment A). Page 45 1463.27 Interviews and discussions held with members of the OEDP Board and TCC staff along with a economists and professionals attached to the process through the Interagency Advisory Committee also contributed to this section. Based upon prior planning done within the Development District and the contributions of many professional and lay persons, the following categories have been derived. These categories pertain to all economic development projects identified in this section (SEE Part E): 1. Agriculture Development. 2. Arts & Crafts Development. 3. Biotica Production. 4, Energy Development. 5. Federal Contracting. 6. Fish Processing & Marketing. Ts Fur Industries Development. 8. Industrial Development and Light Manufacturing. 9. Infrastructure Development. 10. Mineral Development 11. Timber Industry Development & Wood Products Manufacturing. 12. Tourism Development. 13. Trade & Franchise Services D. Category Summaries: The following summarize the categorical assumptions and developmental concepts in each category, above. Page 46 1463.28 1. Agriculture Development Perhaps no other economic development category answers a more fundamental microeconomic need than this one; perhaps no other category possesses greater promise for self-reliance in rural Alaska than this one. As noted before, there is both a cultural and economic resistance to this area of development throughout the rural District. Still there has been a growth in village gardening during the past five years in the District (from 500 to nearly 2000 according to Ray Morgan of the State Cooperative Extension & A. Ketzler, Jr., Director of TCC agriculture). Local agricultural development can provide a form of both income and import substitution, meet a local market demand, and increase the quality of life in the village. Thus, several goals are met through the proper development of this category. . Case studies of both successes and failures in the area of local and regional Agriculture development demonstrate that failures are due less to diseconomies (as some "experts" contend) than to mismanagement and bad political planning. The projects identified in this category propose to investi- gate and, if feasible, to establish in the next five years: small red meat industries serving the subregions; feedgrain industries to supply the subregions; local production units for dairy, poultry and egg, and produce supplying local markets. 2. Arts & Crafts Development: There appears to be a growing market for rural arts and crafts as the tourism industry in Alaska grows more mature. The State of Alaska predicts that 1985 will mark the point at which the number of tourists visiting the State will top three quarters of a million. Each tourist provides a potential market for arts and crafts. The growth in resi- dent population also spells a broadening base for a resident market for quality arts and crafts. The state population has grown by a third since 1980, with much of this popula- tion consisting of in-migrants to the state settling in Anchorage and Fairbanks. As the new population base grows, so does the potential resident market for collecting rural arts and crafts. Finally, there does appear to be a greater eclecticism among national and international collectors of fine art. This market is primarily interested in extremely high quality - one might say "museum-quality" - Native Alaskan and Alaskan art. This market must be accessed through prime marketing centers throughout the United States, Europe and the Orient. 1463.29 Page 47 A recent study on Arts and Crafts marketing opportunities can be reviewed by obtaining the Yukon-Kuskokwim Region Arts and Crafts Opportunities Study; Calista Professional Services, Inc. for the Department of Community and Regional Affairs, Anchorage (1985). 3. Biotica Production: This category refers to a wide range of possible markets that may be entered by Village Corporations and rural enterperneurs with access to large tracts of surface estate. Preliminary investigation by the Economic Development Planner result in the following recommendations for further feasibility analysis: Natural Dye Production: Communication with the cosmetics industry (est. $20 Billion annual sales) confirmed that the industry is searching for alternative sources of color for cosmetics products. This is due to regulatory problems which the industry is encountering with synthetic additives (carcinogenics). The production of natural dyes for the cosmetics industry may be well-suited for village corporations with large estates of dye-producing biotica available to them. Health & Natural Foods Ingredients: Since the emergence of the health and natural food industry in the national marketplace, an increasing share of the consumer marketbasket has been captured by this industry. Only a few years ago so-called "natural foods" could only be found in small specialty stores. Today, these products occupy prime space on the shelves of every major supermarket chain from Safeway to IGA. According to Alaska Herb and Tea Co., a local producer and distributor of indigenous teas, herbs, spices, and other foods products, the herbal tea business alone is a $100 Million annual industry in the United States. Key ingredients used by this industry are abundant in Alaska and yet are imported by major manufacturers (such as Celestial Seasonings and Acerola Brand Vitamins) from other countries. One example of this is rose hips. Rose hips are an important ingredient in the manufacture of Vitamin C tablets and they are a popular class of herbal tea. Some 50 million tons of Rose hips are imported from Central and South America each year to supply our domestic markets. Alaskan rose hips are richer in vitamin’ C concentration and are not heavily dosed with pesticides as are the imported hips. The production and distribution of health & natural food ingredients also appear to be well-suited for village corporations with access to large estates of naturally- occurring ingredients. P 1463.30 age 48 Pharmacopia: Vierick (1982) has described more than forty species of plants that occur naturally in the district that are used in both traditional and modern medicinal application. Both the so-called "naturopathic" and the mainstream medical industry utilize "natural" sources of ingredient for their products. These resources are also abundant on the large surface estates of rural Alaskan corporations. 4, Energy Development: Stabilizing the cost of energy in the villages over the next five years is an important goal of this plan. Currently, power cost assistant (PCA) from the State of Alaska subsidizes the price of energy in rural communities. A continuing decline in State revenues will threaten the PCA and force energy costs higher during the next five years. Meanwhile, the technologies of small-scale energy production have advanced significantly in the past 5 years. Low-resist- ance materials and lightweight media have increased the efficiency of wind-powered generating devices; and a new generation of energy storage devices have made the old battery-based systems obsolete. Site-transportable cross-flow turbines which can generate 50 K.W. with eight feet of head and moderate flow could make hydroelectric generation convenient and inexpensive; and external combus- tion generation options such as the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) may be feasible system for converting wood heat into electrical energy. These and other new technologies should be investigated during the next five years. Alternative energy resources may come into production by the end of FY 1990. These include the development of coal reserves for small, localized production and marketing. Examples of these are identified in Project #19 below. These reserves are also identified on the energy resource map included in Attachment B. Geothermal resources exist in two villages within the region and other geothermal sources of energy are located throughout the Doyon/TCC region. These resources are identified on the geothermal resource map enclosed in attachment B. Natural gas remains an option as long as the expectation for a natural gas pipeline remains alive. As recently as late June, 1985, State Commissioner of the Department of Commerce and Economic Development asserted the export potentials for Natural Gas from the North Slope will make the construction of a gas line viable in the "1990s". During the next five years, options for utilizing natural gas by the rural communities in our region will be explored. Page 49 1463.31 DS Federal Contracting: While estimates vary, it is clear that the federal govern- ment provides one of the largest single annual inputs into the Alaskan economy. Defense appropriations alone topped $1 Billion in FY'85 for the State of Alaska. Section 789 of the Defense Appropriation Act of 1982 (PL 97-114, as amended) provides for "purchases of products of Indian Industry..... is This "Buy Indian" section in the 1982 Defense Appropriations Act has opened new opportunities for Indian involvement in defense procurement. A generally applicable rule of interest to rural businesses is the practice of the government to set aside a portion of its procurements to target "small and disadvantaged businesses. Small and disadvantaged businesses are encouraged to participate as prime contractors or as members of joint ventures with other small businesses. In those set-asides, all successful contractors are expected to place subcontracts to the maximum extent practicable to small & disadvantaged businesses in accordance with the provisions of PL 95-507. Each year, for example, there are large procurement opportu- nities from the Department of Defense to fabricate parkas, gloves, and other items for northern detachments. A high production garment fabrication industry would be well suited for an aggressive corporation seeing both investment and employment opportunities. During the five years of this plan, federal procurement options will be explored in attempting to get federal land management field responsibilities contracted out to qualified rural-based firms. Federal procurement opportunities are available on a daily basis from the Commerce Business Daily, Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. 6. Fish Marketing & Processing The macroeconomic picture for Alaska's fisheries appears to be uncertain over the next five years covered by this plan. Kuskokwim and Yukon fisheries may be hurt by continued interception of salmon by the False Pass/South Chumigan Island fishery, and competition from foreign fisheries seem to be impacting both the numbers of salmon available to domestic commercial fishers and to the available markets abroad. The positive outlook appears to be in the markets for specialty finished products, salmon roe to the Japanese, and extruded fish products from the chum salmon from which the roe is extracted. 1463.32 Page 50 The specialty products would include smoked and dried salmon strips or "jerky" and quality smoked filet product. Extruded products would include fish sticks and nuggets as a prepared product for supermarket sales as well as a meal for animal protein supplement and exports. The roe production over the next five years would be enhanced through tighter quality controls, mechanization, and larger marketing supports. It is anticipated that, through focusing on these more "value-added" processes and specialized markets that the interior fisheries will prosper during the next five years covered by the plan. Ts Fur Industry Development: The fur industry in Alaska traces its roots to the earliest days of European contact. Long before the discovery of gold in the interior, fur entrepreneurs wound their way into the region in search of new resources to meet the insatiable demands of the world market. The fur trapping industry in this region has remained effectively unchanged over these many years, with individual trappers remaining dependent upon the vagaries of the fur exchanges and the fluctuations of nature. The Alaska fur industry has simply been a producer of raw pelts for export through a system of fur-buyers who broker the pelts to larger buyers or auction houses. Over the five-year period covered by this plan, it is recommended that the fur industry in Alaska assume a more aggressive posture with respect to consolidation of its resource base (through the formation of a Fur Trappers' Cooperative). By managing both quality and quantity of furs available to the market, demand may be stabilized. By managing the timing of the release of those furs, a counter- cyclical effect can be generated when world stocks are high or low, and the price of Alaskan furs may be stabilized. A stable demand and price for this resource through the end of this century might be an attainable goal for this industry. In addition, this 0.E.D.P. recommends the further investiga- tion of the "value-added" features of an integrated fur processing and marketing scenario. By establishing a fur dressing operation within the region covered by this plan, one of the economic "leakages" that occurs with this produc- tion is recaptured within the region. Currently, all commercial quality fur dressing operations exist outside Alaska. By establishing a garment manufacturing/sewing center even greater revenues can be retained in the region. Finally, by establishing an independent marketing system for fur products which would sell and distribute directly to national/international retail/wholesale markets, maximum dollars could be returned to the region from fur production. 1463.33 Page 51 For a detailed analysis of this scenario developed by ENTECH for the Tanana Chiefs Conference, Inc. please write to the Economic Development Office, Office of Planning & Develop- ment, Tanana Chiefs Conference, 201 lst Avenue, Fairbanks, AK 99701. Please also refer to the Yukon-Kuskokwim Fur Industry Plan, Calista Professional Services, Inc. 516 Denali St., Anchorage, AK 99501 (1984). 8. Industrial Development & Light Manufacturing: Industrial development in the region should conform to the existing strengths, capabilities and resources in the region. Industry is possible which is an outgrowth of resource development scenarios outlined throughout this section. The apparent growth in both tourism and recreation (outdoor) industries provides an opportunity to manufacture quality crafted merchandise catering to those markets. The wide use and application of wood-working tools by rural Alaskans, for example, suggests a rich skills-base potential for a hand-tool fabrication industry in our region. A secondary benefit from the development of alternative energy technologies for rural Alaska is the development of technological innovations to accommodate our harsh northern conditions. Such technological innovations might well provide a basis for technology transfer and production in the rural areas. As experts in small energy systems, rural industries could be developed in the next five years which produce energy systems packages for export. Such a system, for example, might be a wood-stove ORC generator package featuring a super-efficient wood stove outfitted with an external combustion electrical generating system. Rural Industrial development should look at manufacturing those goods which are heavily consumed in rural areas. An example suggested by F. Elzey of the TCC/VPSO program is the development of a commercial ammunition loading, packaging and wholesale industry. A preliminary estimate is that $250,000 to $500,000 in ammunition per year is purchased and consumed in the TCC/Doyon region (excluding urban areas). Virtually all of this ammunition is manufactured out-of-state and is very expensive. A box of 20 gauge shotgun shells can cost $20.00 or more in a village in our region. The cost of manufacturing and packaging a box of comparable shells in Fairbanks is approximately $5.00 for materials and labor. This estimate is based upon materials with no volume dis- count from suppliers. Obviously, the greater the volume, the lower the unit cost. By wholesaling directly to retail stores, the cost of ammunition would be lowered and the profit for the retailer would be greater. Page 52 1463.34 In the area of biotica production suggested in project category #3, the process of production for all projects is particularly well-suited for rural Alaska. Dye production is based upon:three levels of production: (1) raw materials, gathering and stocking, (individual/local cottage industry) ; (2) raw dye extraction; (3) dye finishing (refining). Level one and two could be achieved at the village level, level three would require access to regional transportation routes as the refinery would be a gathering point for resources from the villages and access to direct shipping routes outside to markets. Thus, Level three could be located in an urban area like Fairbanks. Herbs, teas, spices, pharmocopia markets require gathering, drying, packaging and distribution of indigenous plants for marketing to the natural and gourmet foods industries. These processes may be accom- plished cost-effectively on the village level, although bulk marketing might require a central brokerage to ensure market stability and quality assurance-quality control. A variety of other local industries are suggested by arts and crafts projects (category #2) including specialized manufacture, packaging and marketing of supplies for the outdoor recreationalist market, summer sports market, winter sports market. Examples of these products are listed in projects #9, 10, & 11. 9. Infrastructure Development: The next five years will see an attempt to continue the advances made in the rural communities of the region in the area of capital project development. There remain fundamental needs among the villages in the planning region including water, sewer and transportation infrastructure. During the next five years a model water and sewer system must be developed which provides for less capital-intensive systems than currently exist. For example, a mobile water delivery system providing regularly scheduled fresh water delivery from the community water point to each domicile. This would provide the convenience of individual water supply without the huge capital cost of a piped water system. For sewerage, individual holding tanks would be buried and connected to the house with a gravity flushing effluent system. The tanks would be pumped by a mobile transfer station or a pumping truck, and deposited in a lagoon located well away from the village. This*system would afford the convenience of sanitary facili- ties in each domicile without the high capital and maintenance cost of a piped sewer system. Lower maintenance and capital costs could be realized while providing more jobs through a labor-intensive sewage transfer and water delivery system. All villages with identified priority for water and sewer should design a five-year capital project plan which 1463.35 Page 53 All villages with identified priority for water and sewer should design a five-year capital project plan which incor- porates various phases of this or a similar model for completion by FY90. If the several village plans are coordinated, the State Legislature might take the initiative to combine the water and sewer elements of the five-year capital project plans into an Omnibus Water & Sewer Instal- lation Program (OWSIP). A similar comprehensive approach is recommended by this plan for accomplishing airport improvements. The Department of Transportation and Public Facilities in the Interior Alaska Transportation Study (1983) identified a wide range of airport upgrade needs for the villages incorporated in the plan. the DOT/PF discusses the Holy Cross subregions needs in the Lower Yukon/Kuskokwim Transportation Needs Assessment (1982). Additionally, information on the air transport needs are currently being gathered by the State DOT/PF in the Alaska Aviation System Plan, Phase II, currently under- way. As part of the five-year planning effort for the villages, a review of existing air transportation facilities will determine priority airfields which require upgrading to a minimum level of commercial all-weather use. Such recom- mendations as airport expansion, navaid and safety projects for the region will be defined. As with the water and sewer projects discussed above, if these various project recommen- dations are coordinated, the State legislature could provide Phase I support for an Omnibus Airport Improvement & Safety Program (OAISP). Other infrastructure programs that are recommended for support through FY'90 include the development of subregional warehousing facilities to supply and support capital project activities in the satellite villages surrounding each subregional center; a shallow draft barge system to serve the Middle-Yukon and the Kuskokwim communities. Such a system will provide lower cost mass transportation for villages that cannot currently be served reliably by deep- draft systems. This plan recommends studying the feasibility and, if feasible, developing a Yukon River Docking Facility at Circle and at Eagle Village to accommodate increased tourist trade from a Yukon River Ferry System. Declining state revenues reduces the potential state investment in a ferry system, but private sector development of the system to capture tourism revenues may occur by FY'90. 10. Mineral Development: Significant mineral deposits within the region are shown in Attachment C. In reporting mineral deposits and activities, the State of Alaska, Office of Mineral Development, utilizes a regional grid to divide the state. The area covered in 1463.36 Page 54 the minerals industry will do during the five years covered by this plan. While the minerals industry continued to perform at the $275 Million/yr. level in Alaska, the industry expenditures for exploration were down significantly, not boding well for the future. Still, the known resources in the region are significant as described in Attachment C, and this plan recommends that each community in proximity to those deposits follow the exploration and development activities closely. As activities occur, those communities (and their associated corporations) could become involved in project support industries. During this plan period, a study should be initiated identi- fying the most likely areas of project support that might be provided by rural communities. This study would dissect each industry associated with existing significant deposits and examine the support activities associated with each potential project. This study could be a tool for rural communities interested in providing support services to the minerals industry in their area in doing so as the explora- tion and development phases occur in the future. ll. Timber and Wood Products Industry: In the next five years, the timber potential for the Yukon Flats subregion (focusing on Ft. Yukon area) will be completely inventoried and a forest products plan will be in place. Ft. Yukon is contemplating a mill for subregional supply. The mill has been purchased and is in place. Also, under consideration is an air-drying unit for spruce. This will provide a resource for making finished dimensional lumber to supply area needs. Nikolai has looked at export markets to the extent of negotiating an agreement with potential Korean buyers last year. The community has bought a new sawmill capable of processing 1/2 million B.F. per year and they purchased a barge for hauling the lumber to Bethel for transshipment to Korea. This area has good timber resources and in the next five years completion and execution of these export marketing agreements may occur. Tetlin reserve in the Upper Tanana Subregion is in the stumpage business, selling stumpage to a logger located in the Tok area. With the benefit of some business development support, the next five years could see expansion of the stumpage contracts for this community. In the same subregion there exist some small logging operations at Healy Lake and Dot Lake. The Galena area is involved in some small production of house logs. There appears to be no major push at this time in major timber production. If there is a feeder road over 1463.37 Page 55 the Nulato Hills constructed, there will be a potential of large timber supply contracts to support the Red Dog Mine as the Ambler and Kotzebue Districts are void of major timber resources. In the Holy Cross area the timber potential appears to be more limited than the other areas in the region. Still there may be a potential for subregional rough lumber and log supply operations to support construction and capital project activities through FY'90. Wood products present a different picture of potential. In this category we are dealing with an ‘added-value' industry in which the presence of a large resource base is not the principal feasibility factor. Nulato, for example, has shown some interest in the development of a furniture industry. Using local stands of spruce and birch, a stock- pile of wood blanks would be manufactured, dried and stored, shaped and finished, joined or packed in kit form for distribution. Other communities could supply wood products to the arts and crafts industries discussed in category #2, above. Finally, the presence of good stands of white spruce throughout the region may indicate accessible reserves of instrument-quality wood. This quality spruce could be harvested and rough processed for drying and storing purposes. Dried spruce blanks, sliced and packed as flatboards of instrument wood could also be prepared and stored. In time and with sufficient training, some fabrication of finished instruments could also be performed. 12. Tourism Development According to the State Division of Tourism, there shall be approximately 750,000 tourists visiting Alaska during 1985. The Division estimates that the growth in tourism shall be a steady 7-10% per annum through the end of the century. Excluding transportation costs, each tourist spends approxi- mately $1,000 in Alaska during his stay. According to the Division, there is a "strong interest among tourists in visiting rural communities..... . According to the Alaska Traveler Survey and Visitor Industry Analysis published by the Division in 1983, nearly two-thirds of all visitors to Alaska probably or definitely will return to Alaska, 25% of all visitors to Alaska have a household income of $60,000 or more, over 43% of the visitors are professionals and over one-quarter of all visitors have attained post-graduate education. This profile indicates that there exists a potential to tap a well-educated, affluent tourist market either during initial or during return trips to Alaska. The return visitor and some highly motivated first-time visitors to the state may well be in the market for specialized tours which 1463.38 Page 56 offer an in-depth view of the society, history, and natural resources of rural Alaska. This plan recommends a variety of "specialty" tours which utilize existing resources to maximum advantage including traditional knowledge of indigenous resources, resident knowledge of the history, cultures, and the peoples of rural Alaska, and land-use and occupancy of some important histor- ical/geographic features of our region. Such tours would "target" clientele with specialized interests utilizing the indigenous resources and cultural characteristics of our communities. A successful example of such a specialized tour is a bird sanctuary tour that has been developed by the Sea Lion Corporation in Hooper Bay, Alaska. This plan also recommends that a comprehensive tourism development plan be produced for Eagle, Alaska which would assist that community to take advantage of the new tourism resource being routed through the historic community by a new Yukon Ferry conveying passengers from Dawson to Eagle during the summer months. Upwards to 200 tourists a day are projected for the future. Initial traffic has averaged 90 tourists a day. 1463.39 Page: 57 13. Trade & Franchise Service In a draft input-output model of the Upper Kuskokwim sub- district, T. Nagazawa notes the severe condition of economic "leakages" that occur in the interior subregional economy. In the analysis, confined to the flow of public agency funds, nearly halt of those funds, 5.6 million dollars, flowing to McGrath are expended on goods & services from outside the subdistrict. The study also shows that of the total dollars expended on imports by the villages in the subdistrict surrounding McGrath, less than 12 percent went to McGrath area business- es. When dollars are spent in the subdistrict, they result ina health multiplier. The I-O study points out that each dollar of additional sales in the region generate between $1.44 in the trade sector and $2.14 in the renewable re- source sector. While the model is currently being refined for inclusion in the final Yukon-Kuskokwim Regional Strategy Plan, it pro- vides an interesting picture of the extent to which the McGrath subdistrict and other rural areas are dependent upon imports. The Goal of creating projects which promote import substitu- tion, compels us to recommend review of the potential for Regional integration of retail trade & franchise services on the subdistrict level. For example, snowmachines, parts and service, sales, are currently handled out of the urban centers of Anchorage and Fairbanks for the district. Dealers out of the urban areas currently supply chain saws, outboard motors, boats, three wheelers, prefrabricated buildings, literally millions of dollars in supplies and services to the rural communities. One model recommended by R. Kent of the TCC Office of Planning, calls for the establishment of Six (6) subdistrict franchise territories, defined pursuant to the existing TCC subregional boundaries. Once established entrepreneurs could compete for franchise rights to various goods and services currently dealt out of Fairbanks and Anchorage. This result could be a net reduction of this vast trades - deficit condition existing in the interior sub-economies. 1463.40 Page 58 E. DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS LISTING Project # 1.

Smaller fields are located near Rampart and Ruby may be suitable for local uses. On the Richardson Highway system, the Jarvis Creek system may supply the upper Tanana Subregion. Feasibility and development planning and implementation project for local and export markets. The bulk of the start-up costs are the result of an assumed $1 Million-plus capitalization cost for extraction equipment, rolling stock or barge modules, and storage. Project # 20. ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Energy Development. Wind. While preliminary reconnaissance and analyses have shown limited potential for wind driven electrical generation in the TCC region, the potential of wind farming at strategic wind passes in the region should be explored over the next five years. The following subregions are potential beneficiaries from this research and development: Upper Kuskokwim 1463.43 Page 61 Upper Tanana Project # 21. ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Energy Development. Overall Rural Community Energy Systems Design Project. Mixed regimes. The communities in our region would benefit from the use of a mixed energy regime which would take advantage of locally available resources. The village-specific design for such systems should be performed over the next five years. Project # 22. ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Geothermal. The following sites have been identified as potential sites for geothermal develop- ment. Feasibility and development should occur over the next five years to support geothermal development in the following subregions and villages: Yukon-Tanana Manley Hot Springs Yukon Flats Circle Hot Springs Project # 23. ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Hydroelectric. Preliminary recon- naissance and analyses have shown a number of TCC region villages to be potential candidates of some form of small hydro project. Research and development projects should be funded and completed within the next five years to test the feasibility of micro-hydro and run-of-river systems. In addition, conventional high head hydroelectric feasibility should be examined at the following subregions and villages: Yukon-Koyukuk Ruby Yukon-Tanana Tanana (one site) Project # 24. ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Natural Gas Development. Develop natural gas utilization scenarios for the three potential Prudhoe Bay Natural Gas development projects: ANGTS, TAGS, and a small diameter intra-state line constructed to Fairbanks. All phases of shipment, storage and utilization of natural gas by the villages in the Interior should be exported. Project # 25. ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Wood. Wood fired electrical genera- tion. A large number of villages might benefit from the development of an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) or other external combustion generation options. Over the next five years, it is recommended 1463.44 Page 62 that a research and development project be undertaken to test the feasibility of this system. If successful, a two-fold benefit might be realized: reduced energy cost, and an opportunity for sales, distribution, and support of the system. Project # 26. FEDERAL LAND MANAGEMENT CONTRACTING: Government procurement. National Parks and Refuge management. An assessment will be made of the training needs, cost trade-offs and the long-term impacts for an assumption of field management responsibilities within the Federal Management Systems (FMS) by village corporations or communities located within those systems. Project # 27. FISH MARKETING: Bulk Fish sales to Pacific Rim markets. Prelim- inary marketing studies have been done (1982). These studies need to be updated, and feasibility studies completed. Comple- tion of all analyses should be by 1987 with a target date for negotiated marketing agreements by FY'89. Project # 28. FISH PROCESSING: Fish By-Product Marketing, e.g., fish meal, animal foods, roe production, and fertilizers. Preliminary studies have shown a virtually unlimited market in Japan for Salmon Roe. Other by-product demands remain to be studied. A Preliminary marketing plan has already been completed for the Middle Yukon fishery. This must be followed-up with an update and an implementation strategy. Target date for completion of both is FY'87. The implementation strategy will require a QA/QC plan to meet government regulations. Target date for initial marketing is FY'88. Project # 29. FISH PROCESSING: Large-scale fish freezing, storage and distri- bution. Facilities located in key subregions. Initial targets are for the Middle Yukon with feasibility and design studies targeted for FY'87. Major capital expenditures based upon the plan will be phased through 1990. Project # 30. FISH PROCESSING: Specialized Marketing, e.g., production, sale, and distribution of specialized items such as quality smoked fish, strips, and extruded products for urban markets and beyond. Preliminary indications are that a large urban market exists for these items, particularly smoked strips, in bars and saloons, airports, quick stop store chains, and the tourist trade. Again, the initial target is for the Middle Yukon fishery where interest in this type of production has been expressed, particularly by P 1463.45 == Kaltag which had identified a commercial smoker as an economic development priority. Project # 31. FISHERIES PRODUCTION: Fisheries Enhancement Project (FEP). The Takotna River should be targeted for FEP project over the next five years in order to enhance the upper Kuskokwim fisheries. Project # 32. FISHERIES PRODUCTION: Fisheries Enhancement Project (FEP). Several lakes in the Interior should be targeted for stocking for enhancing access to fish protein for contiguous communities and/or to enhance recreational values. Mansfield Lake, Healy Lake are two target projects recommended during the first five years. Project # 33. FISHERIES PRODUCTION: Fisheries Enhancement Project (FEP). Several sites for fish farming experiments are suitable in the interior. If successful, such farms could become a source of fry for future enhancement projects as well as supplementing local protein resources with mature stocks. Preplanning studies are targeted for completion by FY'87 with actual operations of pilot projects by FY'89. Project # 34. FUR Development: Fur marketing. Contingent upon the outcome of feasibility studies, TCC will support the organization of marketing agreements with established fur houses to support Alaskan fur producers. Greater return could be realized through the direct marketing of furs and fur products by the Cooperative identified under Project # 36. Project # 35. FUR Development: Fur processing. Feasibility, design, and marketing studies shall be initiated during the term of this five year program to develop a volume fur processing operation including fleshing, brightening operation as well as a tannery to support the local trapping and farming industry. This facility would eliminate dependence upon statewide processors by the local fur industry. Project # 36. FUR Development: Fur production. During the next five years, TCC will support the organization of a fur marketing cooperative for Interior Alaska to provide technical assistance to fur producers, fur grading, and price stabilization for the small/ medium fur producer. The objective of this organization shall be 1463.46 ee to encourage and support the growth of an identifiable, quality Alaskan fur trade. Project # 37. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Ammunition manufacture, service & supply. Over one million dollars per year in ammunition is consumed by rural Alaskans of the TCC/Doyon region. A volume ammunition loading and packaging industry servicing this market: could lower costs to consumers and generate a small industry. Project # 38. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Renewable resource development. Processing, packaging and distribution of naturally occurring dyes and fragrances for export markets. The production of high quality organic dyes, tinctures, dye bases and aromatics will principally serve the food, cosmetics, and textile industries of the Pacific Rim. (SEE also related projects # 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, above). Project # 38 A. RELATED project includes the processing and packaging of herbs, teas, spices, and foodstuffs for the natural foods and the gourmet markets. The start-up and capitalization costs identi- fied for this project is included in the final market studies phase and the processing center costs. Project # 39. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Renewable resource development. Fur piece fabrication for wholesale and retail markets. One key product of this industry would be the fabrication of pre-tailored shells for fur coats. This project is related to the feasibility of related projects # 34, 35, & 36. Project # 40. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Rural technologies manufacture. Wood fuel heating systems. Support a feasibility study and, if feasible, subsequent development of a small industry fabricating efficient wood stoves for the national market. Project # 41. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Rural technologies manufacture. Outdoor tool fabrication. As above, a feasibility study and subsequent development of a small quality outdoor tool fabrica- tion industry for export. This wood include, among other items, knives, axes, hatchets, cross-cut saws, files, sharpening kits, and acoutrements. Project # 42. Page 65 1463.47 INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Community Infrastructure. Water & Sewer. Omnibus Water & Sewer Installation Program (OWSIP). This is conceived as a five year program. Due to declining state revenues it is unlikely that the project will be completed by FY'90. A facility inventory and needs assessment can be performed by the end of FY'85 to establish 1) those communities with facilities requiring repair, and 2) those communities without facilities. Of those communities in either list, those requiring facilities to accommodate economic develop- ment will be identified and placed at the top of the ED list for the OWSIP. Project # 43. INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Community infrastructure. Drayage, warehousing facilities. An assessment will be supported by TCC of the projected five year economic activity for each subregion. A material and manpower demand analysis will be made which will indicate which subregions could support a subregional drayage and warehousing facility to supply and support capital project activities in the satellite villages. Project # 44. INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Transportation infrastruc- ture. Shallow Draft barge system. The private sector development of a shallow draft barge system to serve Middle Yukon and Kuskokwim will be supported over the period of the Plan. Appropriate studies are targeted for completion by FY'86, with Design & Engineering the following year. Initiation of service is pro- jected for FY'89. This system will provide lower cost mass transportation to villages that currently cannot be served by existing barge operations. Project # 45. INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Transportation infrastruc- ture. Airport Improvements. Omnibus Airport Improvement & Safety Project. This is conceived as a five year project to bring all rural airfield up to a minimum level to support commer- cial all-weather uses. Airport expansion, navaid, and safety projects for the region will be considered. A compilation of airfields identified by DOT/PF should be produced prioritizing improvements under the five year plan. Plan completion FY'86. Project Start-up FY'87. Project completion throughout the region, FY'90. Project # 46. INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Transportation services & support infrastructure. Community development. Tourism. Yukon River Docking Facility. The OEDP identifies the desirability to develop docking facilities on the Yukon to support potential tourism from the establishment of a Yukon Ferry System. 1463.48 Rage 66 Consolidation of existing reports hall be performed by the end of the current FY (85). Contingent upon the fate of the proposed ferry system, design and engineering studies will be conducted -- currently targeting next FY for the D&E. Three phased construc- tion of the facility to serve tourism and ship supply and service will be completed by FY 90. Key community affected: Circle Project # 47. MINERAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT: Mineral Development. Service and supply. The following subregions may see mineral development activities over the next five years. Planning should be under- taken to supply and service those activities supported by the affected communities. Project # 48. TIMBER Industry: Building materials production. KILN for dying finished lumber to supply volume demand throughout Northern Alaska. Planary for finishing rough cut, cured lumber for this same market. This project requires a design study and funding by FY'87 to make the FY'89 target for Project # 6. Project # 49. TIMBER Industry: Building materials production & marketing. Rough-cut lumber, uncured, for capital projects and building projects in the subregions. This project would target each subregion for meeting the consolidated demand for rough-cut timbers for building projects. This project requires some coordination by the planning office to "pull together" existing resources. Milling operations in larger subregions, e.g., Yukon Flats and Yukon-Koyukuk would be particularly suited to meeting the larger volumes of capital projects in each area. Target for FY'86 construction season. Cutting and stockpiling could begin this fall (FY'85). Project # 50. TIMBER Industry: Building materials production & marketing. Finished lumber for construction and home building industry in Interior Alaska. Feasibility and marketing studies will precede development of this project targeted for production by FY'89. Project # 51. TIMBER Industry: Export sales & marketing. Raw stumpage for export to Pacific Rim markets. Feasibility analyses would initially focus upon four subregions identifying two export scenarios. Yukon-Koyukuk subregion, Yukon-Tanana Subregion, Yukon Flats Subregion, and the Upper Kuskokwim Subregion. The two export scenarios would include the sale of cut logs and the 1463.49 nealled sale standing timber rights. Target completion for these analyses will assist in private sector initiatives within these subregions. Project # 52. TIMBER Industry: Finished product manufacture & marketing, e.g., furniture manufacturing, wooden crating and packaging supplies, ornamental and fine wood products for the home construction industry. Appropriate studies and support for the private sector development of this industry will be encouraged within the region over the next five years. Project # 53. TIMBER Industry: Specialized production & marketing, e.g., supplying instrument-quality white spruce to the musical instru- ment and acoustical products industry. Preliminary studies and inventories of forestry resources show a high concentration of white spruce in the Interior with the desirable densities for instrument-quality wood. Contingent upon fund availability, TCC will support the feasibility and marketing studies needed to encourage private-sector development of this quality industry over the time-frame of this 0.E.D.P. Project # 54. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: Specialty Tourism. Guided academic or custom tours. "An ANCSA tour of Rural Alaska". This tour would include much of the scenic backdrop of other tours but with a sociopolitical orientation on ANCSA and a field tour of ANCSA village corporation. Project # 55. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: General tourism promotion spinning off from tours targeting the Fairbanks and Anchorage markets. This requires establishing tours out of urban areas and establishing facilities where none exist, or expanding existing facilities. Project # 56. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: Specialty tourism. Historiographical tour of Rural Alaska including exploration of abandoned village sites, ghost towns, mines, trails and other significant historiographic features. The start-up costs are shared with other specialized tours. Project # 57. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: Specialty tourism. Promotion of "Wilder- ness Experience" tours for clients desiring to explore the Parks and Preserves surrounding many of the villages in our region. Much of the start-up costs are consumed in a national promotion campaign targeted for FY'89. Page 68 1463.50 Project # 58. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: Specialty Tourism. Wilderness experience tours. "River Life Experience" tours including an itinerary along key fishing rivers and streams of interior Alaska with stay-overs in select fish camps. Project # 59. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: Specialty Tourism. Wilderness experience tours. "Trailblazers Tours" which include treks along the old traditional trails used in Interior Alaska. This tour would accompany historical information of traditional lifestyles and events in this Interior. Project # 60. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: Specialty Tourism. Guided academic or custom tours. Develop a variety of specialist tours arranging for specialist guides in case of minimum bookings for any given topic. Suggested topics are: "A Geologists Tour..."; "A Naturalists Tour..."; "An Ornithologists Tour..."; "An Anthropol- " ogists Tour...". These could be promoted through universities and specialist publications. Project # 61. TRADE (RETAIL). AND FRANCHISE DEVELOPMENT: Retail transportation. In each of the six subdistricts in the Economic Development Region - Franchise Dealerships & Services Centers could be established for snowmachines, three & four wheelers, motorcycles, and motorbikes, boats and motors. A subregional service district should provide adequate economy of scale to maintain relatively low price and good service. Project # 62. TRADE (RETAIL) AND FRANCHISE DEVELOPMENT: Building supplies and trades. Rural construction market and household markets in the subdistricts should be a good market for lumber, tools, pre- fabricated buildings, culverts, and other products currently being handled through dealers in Fairbanks. Project # 63. TRADE (RETAIL) AND FRANCHISE DEVELOPMENT: High technology. Computers and telecommunication have become an everyday future to many rural Alaskans. The predominore of Apple computers in rural schools gives rise to the market for principals sales and services as well as sales of mere machines. Telecommunication uplinks and switching systems; phone systems and local area networks for ADP systems in larger communities 1463.51 Page 69 suggest a market for rural sales and servicing franchises of key systems. Page 70 1463.52 SECTION VIII. 1463.53 Page 71 VIII. Plan for Implementation A. Project Phases A pattern emerges from analyzing each project. There are, generally speaking, five phases incorporated during the five-year period through FY 1990 covered by this plan: ° Project planning: including premarketing feasibility analyses, preliminary market assessment, organizational and operating plan, financing plan. ° Design & Engineering: including marketing and product research, production and packaging design and engineering, quality assurance/quality control design and’ engineering. ° Capitalization & Start-up: including the purchasing and installation of capital equipment, training in the operation and maintenance of the equipment, and cost of initial production and distribution of products. ° Initial Operation and Evaluation: including the first year of operation, management and administration of the project enterprise. During this year, adjustments are made in the operation to accommodate "real-world" supply-production-market conditions. Evaluation and adjustments will occur. ° On-going Management, Administration, & Operation: this final phase includes the day-to-day operation of the project enterprise financial recordkeeping, sales and promotion, account servicing, production planning & management, and inventory control. Enclosed in Attachment D are draft Project Summary sheets for each project identified Section V, Development Strategy. A. Implementing Actions Each of these five phases are subject to certain "implementing actions" which make them possible. These implementing actions include, in order, acquisition of preliminary assistance; execution of legal procedures and standards; securing marketing agreements; and_ securing financing for capitalization, start-up, and initial operation. 1. acquisition of preliminary assistance This implementing action must occur prior to the project planning phase. This action requires an investment of dollars as well as expertise. In most cases "seed money" when provided by public and private-sector sources is used for the project planning phase of project development. 1463.54 Page 72 FY'86 will focus upon drawing together resources for this phase from state, federal, and private sources. Resources that appear likely to survive the federal and state budget cuts for the next fiscal year include Community Enterprise Development Corporation, the Small Business Administration (Title 7 programs), the Economic Development Administration, BIA Technical Assis- tance, and the State Department of Commerce & Economic Development, Office of Enterprise Development. Financial assistance to support project planning for economic development may be requested through the legislature. 2. execution of legal procedures and standards This implementing action relates to the development of corporate charters and bylaws appropriate to the enterprise project. This also covers securing legal rights to reproducing existing processes that are protected as well as to the protec- tion of the enterprises own patents, copyrights, trade names, trade marks and authorizations to secure resources and/or to use and occupy sites for the manufacture, packaging, sale, and distribution of products. This action (incorporation and other rights protections) must occur prior to the project planning stage and prior to all implementing actions described in this subsection. 3. securing marketing agreements This implementing action must occur prior to the capitaliza- tion and start-up phase and prior to the action of securing financing, below. The securing of marketing agreements includes the signing of Letters of Intent to purchase (LOI) and Letter of Commitment to supply (LOC) and agreements covering the prices of products, volume of supply, and schedules for delivery. Certain state and federal resources may be available to assist in this action including those listed at subsection l, above. Again, financial assistance to support the packaging of marketing agreements may be incorporated in agency budgets for FY'87 and 88 as required. 4. financing for capitalization, start-up, and initial operations. This implementation action must occur prior to capitaliza- tion and start-up phases, evaluation, and operation. Securing financing includes public sector, private sector, and combina- tions of financing includes public sector, private agreements, venture capital agreements, state-financing programs, federal financing programs, bank loans, or any other source of capital- ization for a given project would be included under this action. 1463.55 Page 73 This action excludes those resources identified in the "acquisi- tion of preliminary assistance" subsection. C: Implementation Steps Throughout the remainder of FY 1985 (through Oct. 1985) the Economic Development Office of Tanana Chiefs Conference shall undertake the following: During the third quarter, FY'85, the office will send out questionnaires to the village corporations and the village councils represented on the 0O.E.D.P. committee. The question- naire will be based upon the sixty-three projects identified in Section VII. Preferences will be selected and prioritized and then tabulated by economic development staff. Experts in each field of development ("Agriculture through Tourism") will be brought in to assist in the formulation of strategy workshops that will be held in colloquium during the last quarter FY'85. A synthesis session will follow the workshop during which the workshop "leaders" and economic development staff will consolidate the strategy information derived during the sessions. A stepwise strategy document will be produced for each of the following categories: Agriculture Development Arts & Crafts Development Biotica Production Energy Development Federal Contracting Fish Marketing & Processing Fur Development Industrial Development and Small Manufacturing Mineral Development Timber & Wood Products Tourism Development eo0000000000 Fiscal year 1986 will focus upon the implementation of the strategy plans described for each development category. The current working goal for 1986 is to secure resources for project planning for 15 projects; to assist in securing design and engineering assistance for 3-5 projects and to assist in financial packaging for 1-2 projects. This assistance will be directed through the Economic Development Office and of Tanana Chiefs Conference, Inc., and will involve other rural development interests as well. The movement of the TCC EDA project activities through this entity will continue through the end of the plan period (FY 1990). Project planning assistance shall be tailored to meet the particular progress of each specific project. For example, one enterprise has taken early initiatives in the development of 1463.56 Page 74 specialty fish products for mass-markets. They have completed their pre-studies (feasibility and marketing). This enterprise is satisfied that the market is their, but they cannot agree on structuring their operating agreement among the several interests in the enterprise which, in turn, becomes an obstacle to finalizing a financing plan. Thus, the focus of the 1986 technical assistance to this enterprise will be on the structuring and adoption of an organ- izational and operating plan. This process would include several steps incorporating goals and objectives statements into the plan, a conflict resolutions process to resolve the difference among the partners, and an agreement of parties to interest and affecting the undertaking. Once the project plan is complete, the financing plan may then be structured. Assistance in the execution of legal procedures and organ- ization and in securing marketing agreements will also be provided to enterprises through consultants. TCC/EDA will provide pre-screening of consultants and an information and referral resource to aid enterprises seeking expert services. This office will also assist securing public technical assistance and preparing aid requests when appropriate. Subsequent fiscal years will proceed through various stages of implementation as outlined in the Project Implementation Matrix in subsection "D" of this section. The progression through the Project Implementation Matrix is based upon the goal of 26 new producing resource enterprises in the district based upon the O.E.D.P. projects by FY 1990. These 26 enterprises could generate as many as 300-500 permanent jobs, and 500-750 part-time/temporary jobs (seasonal) from revenues of 10-15 million dollars per year by FY 1990. 1463.57 Page 75 SECTION IX ATTACHMENT ''A" IX A: OEDP RESEARCH BIBLIOGRAPHY Alaska Center for Policy Studies; Energy Alternatives for the Railbelt Alaska State Legislature; 1980 Alaska Department of Commerce, Alaska Fisheries; An Overview of Selected Marketing Trends; 1984.

Facility profiles and needs assessments exist for 90% of the communities served making the use of secondary sources both feasible and cost-effective. Once file data is consolidated, two lists will be established including: 1) Those communities with facilities in need of replacement or repair and, 2) Those communities without facilities. Through the regional health board established for this purpose, each list shall be prioritized according to "most in need" criteria. Each prioritized list shall then be divided into two, representing two phases of design and construction. The top 50% in either list shall be phase I and the bottom 50% on each list shall constitute phase II of this project. It is anticipated that joint funding for these projects shall come from the State, and IHS/PHS. *Planning & D&E is estimated to average $50,000 p/village x 8 (phase I) and 7 (phase II).

A comprehensive design and construction plan will be derived targeting completion of airposrt improvement and safety projects by FY '89. Criteria would be based upon a given projects positive impact on Economic Development and socioeconomic conditions. For example, the community of Chalkyitsik is largely dependent upon air transportation for bulk delivery due to the unpredictability of the Black River for barge transport. Currently, the arifield in Chalkyitsik is not C-135 Standard. Improving the airfield to accomodate large transports could significantly reduce the cost-of-living and the cost of business in the community.
