ADF&G has requested use of the BLM-administered Gulkana National Wild and Scenic River as a natural boundary for the prescribed fire planned to be burned in a mosaic pattern to improve wildlife habitat.
Comments will be accepted through May 31 for the project, which is expected to begin this summer and may continue for several summers.
