If your project is located outside of a nonattainment area or maintenance area, the responsible project manager needs to assemble the information for the project detailed in the "Letter Confirming Project is Located Outside of a Nonattainment/Maintenance Area" (PDF) and submit it to the following email address: adeyemi.alimi@alaska.gov. If you have questions, please email Adeyemi Alimi or phone: 907-269-6953.
- In some cases, projects may be located in areas about to be designated 'nonattainment' and for that reason, information on the start date of the project will be needed.
- In cases where the project is close to a nonattainment / maintenance boundary, additional information on the boundaries of the project will be needed.
