[T]he banking industry has destroyed the timber industry here on the lower Kenai Peninsula. They closed down the chip market for our dead trees and now we have nowhere to go. They have put many of my neighbors into bankruptcy and ignore any requests for help to get things going again. National Bank of Alaska took over an AIDEA loan for about $2.7 million and we feel they should have some responsibility to our community as a follow-up on this loan. It is way too big for us and bank personnel (Rick Owens) are grabbing everything without regard to the outcome...We do know things are not right and NBA has caused it. Most believe because of the proposed sale [of NBA to Wells Fargo. More The bark beetle has hit the Kenai Peninsula forest hard and a very large portion of our trees are dead and in such a condition that they are only marketable for chips. With this condition, [local residents] worked for and received a loan from the state for storage and loading facilities to be located on the Homer spit for the Asian market. Some time after it was in operation, NBA stepped in and took over the state loan and started working with Brown's company Circle DE Pacific.

Extractions: Southeastern Alaska, or the Panhandle, is one of five distinct regions in Alaska including the Gulf area, the western region, the Interior, and the Arctic. This large (42,000 square miles) and diverse region is composed of a narrow strip of land along the mainland accompanied with a lacework of islands and peninsulas stretching approximately 500 miles from Icy Bay, northwest of Yakutat, to Dixon Entrance at the United States-Canada border beyond the southern tip of Prince of Wales Island. Environment The City and Borough of Juneau encompasses more than 3,250 square miles within its boundaries. The CBJ is bounded on the west by Lynn Canal; on the east by the Canadian border; on the south by Point Coke; and on the north by the Haines Borough. About 90 percent of the total area of the borough consists of water or rugged mountains and glacial ice caps located within the Tongass National Forest. Pre-History There is archaeological evidence that people lived in Southeast Alaska for at least the last 10,000 years. The people that inhabited the region had a hunting and gathering subsistence lifestyle. They must have used some sort of watercraft for transportation because in addition to living on the mainland they also inhabited the islands of the Alexander Archipelago. Food remains at some of the early sites show a focus on bottom dwelling fish which also indicates the use of watercraft. Long distance trade in resources is shown by finding obsidian at two of the oldest archaeological sites in northern Southeast Alaska. The obsidian came from Mount Edziza up the Stikine River in British Columbia and Sumez Island west of Prince of Wales Island.
