This report provides updated information about the harvests of fish, wildlife, and wild plant resources by 4 communities located on the Kenai Peninsula: Nikiski, Seldovia, Nanwalek, and Port Graham. This report details the results of a household survey administered in the study communities between January and March 2015 to collect information about harvests and uses of wild resources by community households during the 2014 calendar year. The study communities are located on the Kenai Peninsula of Southcentral Alaska, and many residents of each study community relied on local hunting, fishing, and wild food gathering for nutrition and to support their way of life. They used a variety of resources, including salmon and nonsalmon fish, large land mammals, small land mammals, migratory waterfowl and upland game birds, marine mammals, marine invertebrates and wild plants and berries. This study is part of the effort to collect data about the full range of subsistence harvests and uses, areas of harvest, as well as demographic and economic information to understand the subsistence way of life in all its complexity. The project was funded by Alaska LNG through a reimbursable services agreement with the State Pipeline Coordinator’s Office. This study was conducted as part of the effort by the State of Alaska to assess the feasibility of constructing a liquefied natural gas pipeline. This information was collected by research staff of the Division of Subsistence, Alaska Department of Fish and Game.

This report summarizes the harvest and use of wild foods by Hughes, Alaska residents in the calendar year 2014. Objectives of this project were to quantify the amount of resources harvested by residents of Hughes, document lands used to search for and harvest resources, quantify the amount of individual participation in the subsistence economy, and collect comments and concerns relevant to subsistence in Hughes. This information is important for effectively managing fish and wildlife on state and federal lands and for fully providing for the subsistence priority as required by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The last comprehensive resource use information was collected in 1982, and much has changed since then. This study was a collaborative effort between Alaska Department of Fish and Game, National Park Service, and Hughes Village Council. Results presented in this publication were collected using standard anthropological methods, including a structured household survey and key respondent interviews. Household participation in this project was voluntary; surveys and interviews were conducted under provision of anonymity. Results presented in this report are presented as community aggregates of household activities. Of the 35 permanent households in Hughes, 26 participated in this effort (77%). Almost every household (96%) reported using wild resources. Residents used a total of 54 different resources. The community per capita harvest was 360 lb per person. The results of this project avouch the continuing prominence of wild resource uses in Hughes, Alaska.

This report details the results of a household survey administered for the study year 2018 for harvests and uses of wild resources by Port Heiden households, as well as community demographic and economic characteristics. Also, this report includes information from in-depth interviews conducted with key respondents, as well as insight from participant observation during salmon fishing and processing activities. Port Heiden is located on the north side of the Alaska Peninsula. During the 2018 study year, an estimated 100% of households used at least one type of wild resource, and approximately 93% of households harvested at least one type of wild resource. Overall, 30,789 lb, or 297 lb per capita, of wild resources were harvested in 2018. Salmon and large land mammals composed the largest portions of overall wild resource harvests. Salmon composed almost one-half (48%) of the total wild resource harvest weight in 2018; the total salmon harvest was 14,856 lb, or 143 lb per capita. Large land mammals composed 37% of the total wild resource harvest weight; the large land mammals total harvest weight was 11,511 lb, or 111 lb per capita. The project was funded by the Alaska Sustainable Salmon Fund (AKSSF). This information was collected by research staff of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game Division of Subsistence, with support from the Native Village of Port Heiden.

This report summarizes the results of research conducted on the 2014 harvests and uses of wild food by 7 communities in Alaska's Interior and North Slope regions. Between December 2014 and April 2015, eligible households in Tanana, Rampart, Stevens Village, Healy and nearby census designated places, Utqiagvik, Nuiqsut, and Anaktuvuk Pass answered questions about their harvest and use of fish, wildlife, and wild plants in 2014. Using a combination of ethnographic key respondent interviews and household surveys, researchers 1) estimated annual harvests and uses of wild fish, wildlife, and plant resources in a 12-month study period by residents of study communities; 2) mapped areas used for hunting, fishing, and gathering; 3) collected demographic and income information; 4) evaluated trends in wild resource harvests; and 5) documented traditional knowledge observations regarding wild resources. This project was conducted cooperatively by Alaska Department of Fish and Game Division of Subsistence, City of Utqiagvik, Native Village of Utqiagvik, Native Village of Nuiqsut, Village of Anaktuvuk Pass, Native Village of Tanana, Rampart Traditional Council, and the Stevens Village IRA Council. It was funded through a reimbursable services agreement with State Pipeline Coordinator's Section (SPCS) and the Alaska LNG partners. The results of the project may be used as part of the National Environmental Policy Act review of the proposed Alaska Liquid Natural Gas Project (LNG) alternatives. Total estimated harvests of wild foods for the seven study areas were 197,715 edible pounds (969 lb per capita) in Tanana, 14,754 edible pounds (378 lb per capita) at Rampart, 3,748 edible pounds (375 lb per capita) at Stevens Village, 51,996 edible pounds (52 lb per capita) at Healy,1,923,351 edible pounds (36 lb per capita) in Utqiagvik, 371,992 edible pounds (896 lb per capita) in Nuiqsut, and 124,269 edible pounds (391 lb per capita) in Anaktuvuk Pass. Results indicate that high levels of subsistence harvest and use of wild foods remain a hallmark of Interior and Arctic communities despite very different subsistence bases. Total subsistence harvests appear to have declined for the study communities in Interior Alaska. In the 3 communities for which earlier comprehensive data exist, 2014 harvest levels were all 45% or less of mid-1980s levels. Harvest levels for the participating Arctic communities appear to have remained stable or increased.

This report provides updated information about the harvests and uses of fish, wildlife, and wild plant resources by the community of Sitka. During February and March 2014, eligible households in Sitka answered questions about their harvest and use of fish, wildlife, and wild plants in 2013. During the 2013 study year, Sitka residents used a large variety of resources, harvested throughout much of Baranof Island, including salmon and other fish, marine invertebrates, large land mammals, marine mammals, and wild plants and berries, as well small land mammals, migratory waterfowl, and upland game birds. The total estimated harvest of wild foods for Sitka in 2013 was 1,377,571 usable pounds (175 lb per capita), slightly less than the previous harvest estimate but likely not a significant difference. Results indicate that the use, harvest, and sharing of wild resources remain important to the community. Funding for the study was provided through the Alaska State Legislature as one component of an overall index community program, the purpose of which is to develop and implement a program to monitor subsistence harvests of fish and wildlife in all areas of the state through a system of index communities. The project was conducted collaboratively by research staff of the Division of Subsistence, Alaska Department of Fish and Game, and the Sitka Tribe of Alaska.

This report summarizes the results of research conducted in March 2019 on the subsistence harvests and uses of wild foods in Buckland, AK for the 2018 study year. The comprehensive subsistence survey asked respondents about their harvest, sharing, and use of more than 75 species of fish, land mammals, marine mammals, marine invertebrates, birds, wild plants, and berries. The project also collected information on community demographics, income, and food security. Researchers mapped areas used by community residents for subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering in a 12-month study period. Buckland is a primarily Iñupiat community with a reliance on caribou, fish, and marine mammal species. The last comprehensive survey was conducted in Buckland for the 2003 study year and subsistence harvests were remarkably similar between two studies conducted over 15 years apart. Despite some variation in harvest composition by resource category, per capita harvests in 2003 (553 lb of wild food per person) and 2018 (554 lb) were nearly identical.
