MSB Public Meeting RE: Proposed West Susitna Access Road

The purpose of this Borough public involvement endeavor is to provide a forum for the public to comment on the proposed West Susitna Access Road project directly to the Borough. This effort is parallel to, but separate from, the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority’s (AIDEA) public engagement program regarding the project. The Borough Assembly and staff heard public comments in 2021 indicating the need for additional comment opportunities and project clarity. The purpose of this public involvement effort is to fill that need. 

The end result of this Borough public involvement project will be a summary of comments representing current public sentiment about the proposed West Susitna Access Road. 

The team will submit the comment summary to the Borough Assembly and AIDEA, before submitting it to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for consideration during the upcoming Clean Water Act permitting process. 

For more information about the proposed West Susitna Access Road project, visit the AIDEA website https://www.aidea.org/Programs/Project-Development/West-Susitna-Access.
