The situation

What’s happening to Lake Clark National Park & Preserve

Four million acres of active volcanoes, turquoise lakes, and salmon rivers on the west side of Cook Inlet, one of the wildest parks in the country. A private inholding called the Johnson Tract sits inside it, and the Park Service is analyzing two easements across park land, a transport corridor and a port on Tuxedni Channel, that would open the way for Contango Ore’s gold mine. Cutting industrial access routes through a national park to reach an inholding mine would fragment habitat and set a precedent for development inside protected Alaska parklands.

The situation, timeline, and threats: the MTJP threatened-lands record for Lake Clark National Park & Preserve, with per-item sources. Which groups are listed for this place: a group is listed only under a sourced fact, and each chip opens its source. Local means headquartered in the state (the group’s own site, else the legal domicile on its 990) or the place named in its mission on its latest 990. In the fight means a case over the place naming it (the court docket), its own comment on a decision about the place (regulations.gov), an editors’ link with its source or its own page approved by a person here, or events on its own calendar held at the place. No fact, no listing. Org-reported figures are always labeled. Data verified as of 2026-10-04. No group pays to be listed on this page or for where it sits.
