500 |a Attachment 2, Appendix D contains two attachment, D-1 and D-2, which are surveys originally issued separately. Attachment D-1 is "2013 Alaska recreation survey" (which covers May 2012 to April 2013), and Attachment D-2 is "2013 Alaska outdoor recreation survey" (which covers May-October 2013 in the first half and November 2012 to October 2013 in the second half). Both are different versions than the survey called "Alaska recreation survey 2013" and numbered 74 in the series Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project document).

520 |a This study is conducted to identify recreation resources and activities (by Alaska residents as well as visitors to Alaska) that may be affected by the construction and operation of the proposed Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project, and to help assess the potential effects of Project construction and operation on those resources and activities. The study areas vary by each of the three parts of the study, but overall encompass a region far beyond the proposed Project corridors and include the Parks Highway (western boundary); the Denali Highway (northern boundary); the Richardson Highway (eastern boundary); the Glenn Highway from Glennallen west to Chickaloon, then northwards along the Chickaloon River to the Chickallon Glacier, then west to the Y Junction (with Talkeetna Road) on the Parks Highway (southern boundary); and 1/4-mile corridors along those highways. User data is collected through a variety of methods including online, mail, telephone, and intercept surveys. This report describes Alaska Energy Authority's progress in implementing the study during 2014, and is intended to supplement Part A of the Initial Study Report published in June 2014. Attachment 1 comprises a listing (including description and easements), braiding classification, and mapping of all commercial and non-commercial trails in the project area. Attachment 2 describes surveys conducted on recreation use and the results.
