Fisheries Department Director/Biologist, Kuskokwim Native Association
Aniak, AK
Description and Responsibilities: This is not your typical biologist
position. It combines research and monitoring with outreach, education,
capacity building, cooperation, and ensuring the sustainability of
Native Alaskan subsistence culture—it’s about people and place as much
as fish. You will be leading a fisheries department that works on
cooperative fisheries management including fisheries monitoring and
research projects in cooperation with state and federal management
agencies, mentoring and supervising technicians and interns, and working
with people, schools, and communities through the KNA Fisheries
Community Outreach Program. This is a unique opportunity to use creative
biology/ecology, cultural, mentoring, leadership, and communication
skills to build on the existing KNA Fisheries Program which has strong
local resident, and state and federal agency support. This is a full
time position funded by grants from the Federal Office of Subsistence
Management and other State and Federal grants and is located in Aniak,
Alaska. The Fisheries Director will be under the general supervision of
the KNA Executive Director and will work with various Native
organizations, non-government organizations, state agencies, and federal
agencies. The Kuskokwim River is the longest free flowing river in the
U.S. and still has no connections to the road system (Aniak is only
accessible by air/river barge).

Packard Environment Fellow, EDF
San Francisco, CA
To solve the global overfishing problem, we need cost-effective
solutions that can be easily and quickly applied at scale. And we need
appropriate financing to drive the reform. Key to our success is deep
understanding of the financials of management reform. We are currently
conducting two related projects to better understand the economic return
of implementing catch shares: (1) a bio-economic model that calculates
the expected economic outcomes of various management approaches,
including catch shares and (2) a "return on investment" analysis of
catch share management, looking both at fisheries that are already under
catch shares, as well as the expected ROI for non-transitioned fisheries.
The Packard Environment Fellow will work to advance our knowledge on the
financial case for catch shares. The Fellow will build upon our existing
projects to understand the economic upside of management reform,
calculate the ROI for transitioning to catch shares and identify
possible financial vehicles for financing the transition. The Fellow
will work with a dynamic team of professionals with backgrounds in
science, economics, communications and policy.
