Coming up on KTNA

This week on Su Valley Voice we’re revisiting our episode from last Fall in which we discussed our area rivers with those who live, work and play on them. Susitna River Coalition will also be live in the studio to introduce listeners to their new 2 year community-driven collaboration with the Environmental Protection Agency. The resulting Susitna Watershed Plan will aim to make planning efforts accessible and understandable to the public. Su Valley Voice aired live this morning and rebroadcasts at 7pm.

This week on the Alaska Fisheries Report Katherine Irving of KMXT tells of the dampening effect of high fuel prices on the fishing industry, plus KCAW’s Hope McKenney reports on the intersection of spawning herring and grey whales in Sitka Sound. The Alaska Fisheries Report airs on KTNA Fridays at 12:30pm following the midday news.
