 Fish Habitat Permits
Alaska's fish habitat protection statutes date back to statehood and reflect Alaskan's belief that fish species and habitats are an asset that should be protected (or in some cases compensated) from unnecessary or inadvertent disturbance or destruction from human activities in order to continue to produce social and economic benefits for generations to come.
Some common activities which require a Fish Habitat Permit are stream fords, heavy equipment operated on the ice, water withdrawal, boat launch and dock construction, and culvert placement.
Application instructions and specific requirements for fish habitat permits may be obtained from the OHMP with geographic responsibility for your project location (Area Offices).

 USGS National Wetlands Research Center: Habitat Suitability Index Models Introduction
Whereas these other data bases are descriptive in content and contain an array of habitat and population information, this series is unique in that it is constrained to habitat information only, with an emphasis on quantitative relationships between key environmental variables and habitat suitability.
Models are included that provide a numerical index of habitat suitability on a 0.0 to 1.0 scale, based on the assumption that there is a positive relationship between the index and habitat carrying capacity (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1981).
Their valueis to serve as a basis for improved decisionmaking and increased understanding of habitat relationships because they specify hypotheses of habitat relationships that can be tested and improved.
