Project Description: This study will explore concerns of Tuktoyaktuk residents regarding development of the coastal, marine and aquatic zones in the Husky Lakes area and will develop a coastal zone plan to guide management decisions. The study will concentrate on human uses and ecological processes, looking at the land-water interface in this unique area. The researcher will travel between Tuktoyaktuk and Husky Lakes by all terrain vehicle and boat. Interviews, formal and informal, will be conducted after informed consent is obtained and will be audio and video tapped. This research will partly fulfill the requirements for the researcher's Masters in Natural Resource Management and will provide valuable information to the Inuvialuit Land Administration and Department of Fisheries and Oceans.
