U.S. District Court Orders Federal Agencies to Implement Subsistence Regulations for Tongass National Forest Submerged Lands

The U.S. District Court for Alaska has directed the Federal Subsistence Board to implement subsistence provisions for submerged public lands within Tongass National Forest, following a 2011 order in Peratrovich et al. v. United States and the State of Alaska. The Bureau of Land Management and the USDA-Forest Service are reviewing hundreds of potential pre-statehood withdrawals in the marine waters of the Tongass National Forest.
