Description
Summary:The purpose of a data gap analysis is to identify and evaluate existing baseline information and to determine what additional data may be required to describe baseline conditions and assess possible impacts of a proposed action. A data gap report is a review of existing information about a topic--in this case, subsistence--and an assessment of the adequacy of that information to describe potential impacts and satisfy known licensing requirements--in this case, to prepare an EIS for the Watana Hydroelectric Project that satisfies FERC licensing requirements. If existing information is inadequate to describe baseline conditions and assess impacts, a data gap is identified. The data gaps ultimately determined to be worthy of future study are identified by permitting needs and the needs of the applicable regulatory process for the proposed project. This report covers various aspects of subsistence in communities in the Susitna and Copper river basins.
