The new regulation would reduce visitor use conflicts and concerns over potential safety issues related to bear baiting and would also restore consistency between harvest practices allowed in national preserves and NPS management policies with respect to natural processes, abundances and wildlife behavior. https://www.nps.gov/locations/alaska/proposed-changes-to-hunting-regs.htm https://www.nps.gov/ania/learn/news/federal-register-correction.htm Fri, 09 Mar 2018 06:00:00 EST The Aniakchak National Monument SRC will meet at the Alaska Peninsula/Becharof National Wildlife Refuge Office, 4 Bear Road, King Salmon, AK 99613.
