Proposals Sought for the 2025 Kenai Peninsula Habitat Rehabilitation & Protection Cost-Share Program
The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G), Division of Sport Fish is currently accepting proposals for the 2025 Kenai Peninsula Habitat Rehabilitation & Protection Cost-Share. The submission deadline is 5:00 p.m. Saturday, September 30, 2024.
The Kenai Peninsula Habitat Rehabilitation & Protection Cost-Share, administered cooperatively by ADF&G and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), is a financial incentive and educational outreach program directed towards private landowners and public land managers. The program provides technical expertise about rehabilitation practices, state and federal permitting assistance, and funding for salmon habitat rehabilitation and protection projects along streambanks on the Kenai Peninsula. Funds are limited and not all projects can be funded; however, selected landowners could have up to 50% of the cost of their project reimbursed. Additionally, ADF&G staff provides educational opportunities to landowners, public land managers, and the public on the techniques and value of fish habitat. The program uses and funds proven bioengineering techniques such as coir logs, willow plantings, cabled spruce trees, rootwads, and elevated light penetrating walkways to help stabilize, revegetate, and rehabilitate streambanks.
“With summer in full swing and people spending the long days outdoors, this is a time of year when landowners often notice erosional issues occurring on their property” stated Streambank Rehabilitation Coordinator Jessica Johnson. “Participation in this program will provide landowners with a hands-on learning experience and an opportunity to be actively involved in maintaining healthy juvenile salmon habitat and populations while also making their property more resilient to erosion.”
For additional information, please contact Streambank Rehabilitation Coordinator Jessica Johnson at (907) 267-2403 or by email at DFG.DSF.StreambankRehab@alaska.gov. Additional information is also available on the ADF&G Cost-Share Program website.

Library Fundraising Efforts
Greetings from the volunteers who have kept the Cooper Landing Community Library alive and well since 1983. 41 years and going strong! There have been many changes through the years. The card catalog is long gone, and the introduction of the internet has taken us from one secondhand computer and a fax machine to four public access computers, color printing, and an Integrated Library System. The building has doubled in size and undergone numerous upgrades to make operations more cost-efficient. Through all these changes, the library continues to provide public computers and printers, reliable internet, new-release and up-to-date fiction, non-fiction, DVDs, magazines, and a delightful children’s section. We also offer access to the Alaska Digital Library through Overdrive for audiobooks and eBooks.
Providing this service to the community comes at a cost. Annually, we apply for and receive a grant of up to $7,000 from the State Library. Our community is required to match this amount. This year we are once again asking for your help. Checks can be mailed to Cooper Landing Community Library, PO Box 517, Cooper Landing, AK 99572. You can also donate directly at the library or online through our website, cooperlandinglibrary.com, by clicking the donate button at the bottom of the page.
Donations received for 2024 have just reached $4,000. We’re over halfway there! Thank you so much to those who have contributed.
