Great Land Trust proposes to preserve the 5 acre site. The purpose of the preservation is to protect high value habitat consistent with the State of Alaska Anchorage Coastal Wildlife Refuge Management Plan, the Municipality of Anchorage Wetland Management Plan and Great Land Trust’s 2010 wetland prioritization. The goal of the mitigation site is to provide appropriate mitigation for impacts, within the authorized service area, by providing wetland preservation. The ILF Sponsor plans to establish this mitigation site by preserving all onsite wetlands. The sponsor has proposed, for purposes of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act and/or Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, that the geographic service area of this mitigation site would include the portions of the USGS Hydrologic Unit Code 19020401 that are within the Municipality of Anchorage and the portions of USGS Hydrologic Unit Code 1902030207, Turnagain Arm that are within the Municipality of Anchorage.

Expiration date: 5/8/2015

The overall project purpose is to create a facility to support the operational and logistical needs of North Slope oil and gas operators. The applicant states that the facility would be used to provide storage for oilfield equipment such as a 30,000 square foot (sf) area for a laydown yard, snow storage, and equipment; a 6,000 sf workshop/office complex; and up to 105,000 sf of camp space and supporting modules (diesel generators, potable & waste water, etc.)., as well as bed space for approximately 200 workers. Additional space would be utilized for safe movement of vehicles, equipment, and pedestrians around the facilities and parking areas located on the pad. The proposed work is to construct a 5.01-acre gravel pad within wetlands abutting an existing developed facility. Specifically this work would result in the discharge of 40,450 cubic yards of clean fill material to provide a stable base for oilfield support equipment, vehicles, and facilities. All work would be performed in accordance with the plan view dated March 19, 2015 and the cross sectional view dated March 17, 2015 (attached). Please contact Steve Moore at (907) 753-5713, toll free from within Alaska at (800) 478-2712, by fax at (907) 753-5567, or by email at Stephen.A.Moore2@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this notice.

Expiration date: 5/8/2015

The existing Class 2 freezeback solid waste landfill is at capacity and requires expansion to maintain uninterrupted solid waste disposal services for Barrow. The Barrow Landfill was designed with the assumption that the Thermal Oxidation System (TOS), an incinerator, would be operational and reduce the volume of fill entering the landfill. Cell 1 of the landfill has prematurely filled due to the TOS explosion in 2009 with sporadic operation since. Large Barrow cleanup projects have also consumed space in the landfill earlier than expected. The existing landfill needs to formally transition to Phase II and Phase III of development. This includes closure of Active Cell 1, completion of Active Cell 2, construction of a supporting working pad (Cell 3), and construction of Cell 4. Supplemental activities include installation of thermal monitoring wells for Cell 2 and updating wells for Cell 1. The landfill perimeter fence has become damaged from drifting snow and will also need to be repaired.North Slope Borough proposes to place 62,000 cubic yards of clean gravel fill material into 8.5 acres of wetlands. Twelve phases of development exist for this landfill. This project would construct the infrastructure for Phase II and Phase III. Please contact Janet Post at (907) 753-2831, toll free from within Alaska at (800) 478-2712, by fax at (907) 753-5567, or by email at janet.l.post@usace.army.mil if further information is desired concerning this notice.
