AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION. SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA CHAPTER. SYMPOSIUM: "AFTER THE LAND-USE COMMISSION, WHAT?" Records; 1974. .7 cu. ft. List.

As the Joint Federal-State Land Use Planning Commission for Alaska implemented the provisions of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971, a debate developed over the coordination and matching of government management systems for land usage. The Southcentral Alaska Chapter of the American Society for Public Administration sponsored a symposium in an attempt to establish a basis for dialogue on setting up a coordinated management system between federal, state, and local government, and private landowners. Four functional areas were chosen for discussion: watersheds, fish and game, recreation, and natural resources. The symposium was supported in part by the Alaska Humanities Forum and the University of Alaska, Anchorage. It was held in the Anchorage Higher Education Consortium Library on February 18-20, 1974.

This collection consists of the symposium program and twelve video tapes which record the proceedings. The discussion panels were: Watershed Management, Fish and Game Management, Recreation Management, Natural Resource Management, Relating Use Philosophies to Management, and Legal Barriers to Cooperative Management. The guest luncheon and dinner speakers were Alaska Lieutenant Governor Henry A. Boucher, Dr. Robert W. Hiatt, President of the University of Alaska; Emil Notti, President of the Alaska Native Foundation; and Philip Rutledge, President of the American Society for Public Administration.

This collection was transferred from the Library Technical Services Department to the Archives & Manuscripts Department in 1986.
