AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Alaska Fisheries Under Pressure: A new push to protect Alaska from offshore drilling is back in the spotlight, arguing the federal offshore leasing plan would expose Alaska’s coasts to oil spills that threaten fisheries and Indigenous subsistence. Shellfish Safety in Southeast: Haines-area beaches are under a warning after high paralytic shellfish toxin levels, with officials saying it’s not a good time to harvest shellfish. Crab Season Update: Alaska golden king crab TAC for 2026-27 is set at about 4.74 million pounds, up 13% from last season, with regional quota shifts across the Aleutians. Wildlife & Community Monitoring: Haines is reviving a human-bear education role along the Chilkoot River corridor to reduce conflicts around the fish weir. Local Governance & Services: Gov. Dunleavy vetoed multiple bills, including measures tied to invasive species, single-use plastics, and grant payment penalties—while also vetoing funding for a Mt. Edgecumbe maintenance position. Health Care Access: Alaska’s HB 73 creates a new “Complex Care Residential Homes” license to fill a gap for people with severe behavioral and medical needs who can’t safely be served at home or in existing settings.
