Afognak Forest Carbon Project

Project Overview

  • Universal Project Number (UPN) 099588C3
  • Project Name Afognak Forest Carbon Project
  • Description The Afognak Forest Carbon Project covers 3,326.5 ha (8,219.7 acres) of adjacent or proximal parcels located on the North coast (Perenosa Bay/Delphin Bay area) of Afognak Island, Alaska. In a series of transactions outlined in Section 7, the American Land Conservancy (ALC) and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) acquired the Afognak Carbon project properties and related timber rights from the privately owned Alaskan Native Corporations (Afognak Joint Venture, Shuyak, Inc., and Uganik Natives, Inc.) over the period of 2005-2009, with the objective of conserving the land in perpetuity. As part of these transactions, ALC/RMEF specifically retained the carbon legal title rights and right of use for the purpose of a carbon emissions reduction project; attached a permanent federal conservation easement to ensure perpetual conservation management; and transferred the remaining surface title rights to the State of Alaska.
