Supporting Alaska Army National Guard through conservation and protection of natural and cultural resources as a fundamental component of military readiness.

The Environmental section is part of the Alaska Department of Military and Veterans' Affairs (DMVA), Army National Guard division. Our office is the technical environmental liaison between the state and federal regulatory agencies and the AKARNG community. Environmental and cultural laws and regulations are complex and constantly changing. We therefore facilitate the procedures necessary to stay compliant with applicable laws and regulations in support of AKARNG's mission. We provide guidance, training, and other support necessary for AKARNG to sustain its mission while also protecting the environment and ensuring stewardship of the natural and cultural resources in Alaska.

Thank you to all the volunteers and participants who helped us organize and celebrate the first Earth Day on Camp Denali!

To celebrate Earth Day 2024, AKARNG Environmental organized a cleanup and educational event on Camp Denali. Over 200 local JBER 4th and 5th grade students joined us, helped clean local trails, and asked engaging questions at the educational booths and exhibits provided by the National Park Service, AKNG Child & Youth Program, 863rd Air Wing Environmental, JBER 673rd Environmental, Bryant Army Aviation, Coast Guard and State of Alaska DMVA, among others.
