The Gakona Community Wildfire Protection Plan (Gakona CWPP) is a collaborative effort between Ahtna, AITRC, Native Village of Gakona, the State of Alaska DNR Forestry, BLM and the National Park Service. This CWPP attempts to fully understand the risk of wildfire on the Gakona community and appropriately mitigate future wildfire hazards. In order to accomplish this, a thorough analysis and risk assement was conducted regarding Gakona village values, current and future community development, and surrounding land use.
