Описание:

The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) was passed by congress with the support of President Jimmy Carter. This law added 43,585,000 acres of new national parklands in Alaska; the addition of 9.8 million acres to the National Wildlife Refuge System; twenty-five wild and scenic rivers, with twelve more to be studied for that designation. It was highly controversial among Alaskans because it limited the usage of more land throughout the state. Forty-five percent of Alaskans supported the law, whereas 49% opposed it. The law did make provisions for Alaskan Native and rural Alaskan residential fishing and hunting permits.
