The Alaska State Legislature's Special Committee on Fisheries will hold a hearing on transboundary mining and fishing concerns on October 12th in the Beltz Room at the Alaska Capitol Building in Juneau. We will be collecting comments and information from Alaskans concerned about the health of our watersheds, which begin in Canada and flow out into Southeast Alaska.

This meeting will last from 10am until 4 pm. We will begin receiving public testimony at 12:30. Folks in Ketchikan and Saxman can provide their testimony from the legislative information office on the third floor of the White Cliff building, which is at 1900 1st street. Folks in Wrangell can do the same at their legislative information office at 223 Front Street. Folks in Metlakatla, Hydaburg, Hyder, Meyers Chuck or Loring can call into the hearing toll-free at 844-586-9085. You can also submit written testimony by emailing me at rep.dan.ortiz@akleg.gov. ?
