DCC questions commercial activity at Denali's Toklat Rest Stop
We have always supported maintaining the primitive character of Denali's famous road, which traverses 80 miles through designated Wilderness. This road provides opportunities to glimpse large mammals such as caribou, bears, moose and sheep. In addition, the vast distances, glacial landscapes and tundra hillsides are emblematic of subarctic wilderness. Although park plans have included new infrastructure and development along the road, commercial activities have been prohibited at rest stops. Recently NPS determined that a temporary bookstore at Toklat Rest Stop could be maintained indefinitely. We opposed this move as against planning intent for Toklat.

DCC works toward a community forum on Healy Coal Plant
DCC has noted with concern the planned restart of the Healy Clean Coal Plant, now idle for almost ten years. We argue that the restart must go through rigorous environmental analysis and new permitting. We and many of our members have asked that Golden Valley Electric Association, who has agreed to purchase the plan, should meet in a public forum with locals to answer questions. We will announce date, time and place of this forum as soon as it is known.
