The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act and the National Park Service in Alaska : a primer on access
Funk DA. 1990. The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act and the National Park Service in Alaska : a primer on access. University of Oregon
(Adapted from author's abstract.) This 1990 master's thesis reviews the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980 (ANILCA) including federal regulations, legislative history, U.S. National Park Service planning documents, and case law to determine the pragmatic effect of ANILCA on U.S. National Park Service. Most of the Act's provisions for NPS modify the agency's traditional interpretation of its mandate or create outright exceptions to NPS access policy in Alaska. Although these modifications and exceptions are consistent with the history of NPS, ANILCA indicates a continued lack of commitment to complete conservation in contemporary American society
