The NSB proposes the development of the Community Winter Access Trail (CWAT) program to connect residents of the communities of Utqiagvik, Atqasuk, Wainwright, Nuiqsut and Anaktuvuk Pass to the state road system by use of improved snow trails. The CWAT would allow for regular caravan transits to and from the communities to the Dalton Highway.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>",
