KODIAK AREA PLAN
The Kodiak Area Plan was approved
by the DNR Commissioner on December 20, 2004. The
adoption of this plan establishes land and resource
management direction for 3.9 million acres of state
land, consisting of about 0.57 million acres of uplands
and about 3.3 million acres of state tidelands and
submerged lands. The planning boundary of the
Kodiak Area Plan includes all of the area within the
corporate boundaries of the Kodiak Island Borough,
which includes the Kodiak island group (Kodiak, Shuyak,
Raspberry, and Afognak), portions of the Alaska Peninsula,
and a number of small islands and small island groups,
of which Trinity Island is the largest. With
the exception of the uplands on Kodiak, Shuyak, and
Afognak Islands, tidelands and submerged lands predominate
within the planning area.
