The Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological Repository now owns the land it stands on, after a donation from Koniag, the regional native corporation for Kodiak, and the Kodiak Area Native Association (KANA).
According to Koniag President Shauna Hegna and Chugach Alaska President and CEO Sheri Buretta, it’s time to talk about the future of the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trust—what it should benefit and preserve, as well as what it shouldn’t.
All together Alaska Native regional corporations reported more than $10.5 billion in revenue last year—revenue that creates opportunities; protects their lands, culture, and resources; and provides investment opportunities for the entire state and, more importantly, their shareholders.
