| Summary: | Big game and furbearer harvest and population data from Alaska Department of Fish and Game and from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service was analyzed to examine hunter access modes, hunting locations, and harvest locations prior to Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project development. These analyses were intended to provide insights into potential impacts of the Project on post-construction use of the area by hunters and trappers. Other objectives were to assess whether watershed tributary scale data are adequate for detecting and predicting potential Project-related changes in total harvest and harvest locations; assess the need to collect additional data on hunter access or harvest; identify potential Project-induced changes that might alter hunter access or harvest patterns; identify any remaining data gaps; and inform development of 2013-2014 study plans. The study area includes Game Management Units 13E (which composes most of the Project area) and parts of 13A, 13B, 14B, 16A, and 20A. |
