GCI Terra-Aleutian
On behalf of GCI, DOWL is completing all tasks needed to make certain that there is full environmental compliance for a project that, if developed, will extend high-speed internet to several rural communities, including Unalaska. While still in the planning stages, the project is anticipated to require a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) – Alaska District under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The USACE will act as lead federal agency for purposes of compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act. The DOWL project team will conduct pre-consultation and necessary research to comply with the Marine Mammal Protection Act, National Historic Preservation Act, and Endangered Species Act. Additionally, DOWL will assist in obtaining all necessary land use authorizations, easements, and rights-of-way.
