From U.S. Department of the Interior:

Wildlife Special Action Request WSA26-01 asked to reduce the caribou harvest limit in Units 22, 23, and 26A west of the Colville River drainage upstream from the Nuka River and drainages of the Chukchi Sea, south and west of and including the K*k and Kugrua river drainages (Unit 26A SW) to 4 caribou per year, only one of which may be a cow for the 2026/27 regulatory year. Wildlife Special Action Requests WSA26-02 and WSA26-03 asked to close Federal public lands to caribou hunting by non-federally qualified users for the 2026-2028 wildlife regulatory cycle in Units 22 and 26A SW, respectively.
