Water Service Line Material Inventory The City of Saint Paul is performing a water service line material inventory for all buildings served by the water utility. The United States Environmental Project Agency’s (USEPA) Safe Drinking Water Act requires that public water systems – like the Saint Paul Island water utility – perform these surveys to identify if and where lead service lines exist in water systems. The City has contracted Kuna Engineering to perform the survey.

The Project will develop a new solid waste disposal facility on the 25-acre Aalax subdivision site in preparation for the closure of the existing Ataqan landfill in the spring of 2028. This project includes development of new landfill cells, fencing, signage, equipment building, access road and purchase of equipment for solid waste management including new burn boxes, heavy equipment, and drop boxes.       Benefits to the Community ~ This project is essential to meet the basic health and sanitation needs of the community of Saint Paul Island. Saint Paul Island is an important fishing port in the Bering Sea and therefore a proper landfill is critical for the needs of the Bering Sea Commercial fisheries. In addition, with its sensitive environmental and abundant marine wildlife it is critical that the community and fishing industry have a landfill that will protect the important surrounding ecosystem. The goal is to move the solid waste management facility from the south end

Transportation Safety Action Plan Providing equal and equitable access and improvements to transportation safety is one of the pillars being utilized in the development of the Saint Paul and Saint George Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Action Plan. For transportation related improvements in Saint George and Saint Paul it is important to utilize input from local community members who reside on each island to help in the development of this plan.  Plan development started with the creation of a Safety Action Plan Team (SAPT) that brought together members of each community that are project stakeholders, including members of the city government, public works, public safety, tribal government and school district.  From there facilitation and outreach amongst this SAPT has looked at integrating as much of the community as possible for inclusion of feedback and input into the development of this plan.  The goal of this Action Plan landing page is providing residents in each community, as well as
