ARCTIC DEVELOPMENT
March 2026
While all of Alaska is “arctic” to the rest of the country, our focus in the March 2026 Arctic Development special section is on projects more closely aligned to the actual Arctic, including an update on the Port of Nome deep-draft project, offshore oil activity, plans for projects on Savoonga and on the North Slope, and our cover story about the transportation industry’s efforts to operate responsibly in waters worldwide, which has direct applications to Arctic Seas. Also in this issue: learn more about the Chin’an Gaming Hall, USACE projects, the new Wildbirch Hotel, and the transportation and logistics of Girl Scout cookies. Enjoy!
