Summary:

Legislation is proposed in the 98th Congress to shift substantial Alaskan acreage from National Park and Monument designation to National Preserve status, thereby easing hunting and trapping restrictions on these lands. These proposals would amend the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) of 1980 (P.L. 96-487), Which, in part, set aside 104 million acres in various conservation units in Alaska. The diverse groups that fought the Alaska lands battle from 1971 through 1980 are again at loggerheads over the designation of land uses in the vast Federal holdings of the 49th State.
