Statement Regarding Transfer of Lands to NANA

“NANA is pleased to receive the first land transfer to an Alaska Native Corporation under the Alaska Land Transfer Acceleration Act. We are grateful to President Trump, Secretary Burgum, Alaska’s federal delegation, and their teams for their hard work towards fulfilling federal commitments to Alaska Natives.

 

NANA’s land selections were made many years ago by our Elders and past leadership. We look forward to continuing to work closely with our federal government on the conveyance of the remaining 100,000+ acres of selected lands and on other issues of great importance to our state and nation.” – John Lincoln, President and CEO, NANA Regional Corporation
