Hydroworld.  A multi-faceted piece of legislation introduced by Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, could see a new 50 kW micro hydro power plant fast-tracked for construction in Alaska’s Denali National Park.  The legislation, called the Denali Park Improvement Act, would allow the National Park Service to issue a special-use permit to speed construction of the project. It would also provide authority for the park service to exchange 10 acres of land with Doyon Tourism for construction of the project.  The plan would allow Doyon — a Fairbanks-based native corporation — to build a project on Eureka Creek to power Katishna Roadhouse, a back-country lodge that Doyon owns 100 miles inside the park. The lodge currently is powered by diesel generation.
