The Alaska Supreme Court has unanimously reversed a Superior Court ruling that had struck down Alaska’s correspondence school statutes as unconstitutional, restoring the program as it has existed for the last ten years.

Anchorage’s Solid Waste Services new pilot program aims to keep plastics and organics out of the landfillWhen Anchorage’s Midtown Transfer Station moved across the street into a brand new facility, it left behind the old transfer station and administrative offices. Now, both buildings have new functions, the administrative office is a homeless shelter, and the tipping floor of the former transfer station has become a place to drop off organic material.
