Nondalton Long-Range Environmental Plan

Project Date: 2006
Lead: Ellen Campfield Nelson
Client: Nondalton Village Council
Location: Nondalton

Project Description

The village of Nondalton is located on the west shore of Six Mile Lake, at the head of the Newhalen River, six miles north of Illiamna, in Southwestern Alaska. Lake Clark flows directly into Six Mile Lake, and from there combines with other drainages to become critical salmon habitat for the Bristol Bay region. The community of Nondalton is dependent on the health of these waters for their way of life; protecting these rivers is an important community priority.

Nondalton's Village Council initiated a project designed to gather public input from residents of Nondalton on environmental health issues and priorities. Through the planning process, these goals were combined with tribal environmental values to develop an environmental management plan.
