June 22nd marks ASRC’s 52nd Incorporation Anniversary! One of the 12 Alaska Native regional corporations, ASRC was created pursuant to the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) of 1971 following years of legal battles over our ancestral lands. ASRC was the only Alaska Native corporation to vote against ANCSA when the final version was presented to the Alaska Native Federation in 1971. Despite their opposition, the legislation passed, and our early leaders abided by the terms of the law and began building the foundation of ASRC. Today, we have grown from nearly 3,800 original shareholders to over 14,000 shareholders. The decisions made by our early leaders set ASRC on a course of success that continues to today. By remaining committed to our Iñupiaq values, ASRC can continue achieving new heights.

United Cleanup Oak Ridge LLC (UCOR) and its business partners Strata-G, RSI, and Longenecker & Associates are making a combined $645,000 donation to be distributed over the next five years to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital to expand regional behavioral health outreach at Children’s Oak Ridge Pediatrics facility. Oak Ridge Pediatrics will be the first primary care location in the Children’s Hospital network to offer behavioral health care. The donation will allow Children’s Hospital to hire two full-time behavioral care clinicians; purchase new technology; and offer mental health outreach education and first aid. UCOR has been a long-standing supporter of Children’s Hospital and was involved in the emergency department expansion and hematology-oncology playroom. UCOR President and CEO, Ken Rueter, also sits on the hospital’s board.

With crews finishing soil cleanup at the East Tennessee Technology Park this summer, we're shifting focus to groundwater. That's our final phase of work at the site. That can move forward now with two recently signed agreements with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation. https://lnkd.in/etF62WZH
