It is the intent of the Legislature that the                                  
Administration will maintain adequate fish and                                 
wildlife protection and enforcement officials in the                           
game management units adjacent to the Dalton                                   
Highway during hunting seasons in those units for                              
the purpose of enforcing AS 16.05.789, and other                               
applicable game laws and regulations.  It is also the

of a game management checkpoint on the Dalton                                  
Highway.  That checkpoint yields significant                                   
voluntary information that allows our state to                                 
properly manage game resources.  Finally, in order                             
to better serve the residents living in the area                               
adjacent to the Dalton Highway corridor, it is the                             
intent of  the Legislature that the Administration use
