Problems/Comments
Nabesna Slough is accessed by way of the west end of the Northway Airport runway. The north half is on land owned by the State of Alaska, the southern half on private land owned by Northway Natives Inc. The area is approximately 1.5 miles in the north-south direction and 100-200 feet wide in the east-west direction. Area residents report that numerous drums were washed into the slough when the Nabesna River flooded the airport area in 1944.

The US Army Corps of Engineers has divided the staging field into four projects so that closures of the individual sites within the staging field can be counted. One project consists of the OU1 and OU3 sites that have already been closed by DEC, the next contains OU4 and OU5 sites that are ready for closure. The third project is the Ham Lake site that requires a Feasibility Study, Proposed Plan and Decision Document. The last project includes four areas that have data gaps that need to be resolved, Areas 4, 24, 26 and 48. | Debra Caillouet |
