"Mr. Carter wins points for ... protecting swaths of land in Alaska." A Significant Land Conservation Measure December 3rd, 2012 by Julia Sullivan Thirty-two years ago yesterday, after years of congressional debate, President Jimmy Carter signed into law the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA). The statute protected more than 100 million acres of federal lands in Alaska, doubling the size of the country’s national park and refuge system and tripling the amount of land designated as wilderness. With the passage of ANILCA, Alaska’s national park system expanded by more than 43 million acres. Ten new national parks were created, and three existing units were enlarged. It’s no wonder it’s often called the most significant land conservation measure in the history of our nation. americanforests.org
