These rivers are key to Southeast Alaskas way of life including Native cultures, community
economies, recreation and subsistence, and, of course, its profitable seafood and tourism
industries that employ thousands of people, Mallott noted.
Gov. Bill Walker designated Mallott to lead an internal transboundary waters working group
earlier this year. The group includes the Alaska Commissioners of the Departments of
Environmental Conservation, Fish and Game, and Natural Resources. The administration is
committed to bringing new focus and energy in reaching out to affected Alaskans and their
organizations as well as to Provincial and Canadian counterparts to continue to find ways to
foster constructive working relationships that can protect Alaskas interests.
