the second hospital in Kotzebue’s history, and was located by the present-day Ferguson building. The well was drilled sometime between 1954 and 1958 by the Alaska Native Service (within the Department of Agriculture – now Public Health Service). The water was very brackish. The hole was sealed. Gerald Huttrer of the Geothermal Management company investigated this well in 2002 as part of a regional assessment, but no well logs or data were ever discovered to verify these claims (Huttrer, 2002). In 2008, Gwen Holdmann and Kenji Yoshikawa of the UAF-based Alaska Center for Energy and Power reviewed the evidence for the claim that a geothermal energy resource, in the form of hot water or steam, was encountered beneath the city of Kotzebue during the exploration drilling for a water source. Attached in Appendix C is a brief paper by Ms. Holdmann and Dr. Yoshikawa that provides an alternative explanation, concluding that geothermal fluids were not observed. However, the unlikelihood that geothermal fluids exist at shallow depths (300 ft., as the rumor claims) directly below Kotzebue does not necessarily rule out the possibility of geothermal resources at other locations near Kotzebue, or much deeper underground. Residents were also interviewed regarding potential geothermal areas not identified on the 1983 map. However, residents confirmed that the only known hot springs are the ones on the map: Serpentine, Division/Shungnak, and Granite Mountain. However, several other warm and/or cold springs that do not freeze in winter were identified: 1. Fish hatchery site (on Noatak River). Springs issue from north side of Igichuk Hills; probably groundwater upflow/overflow site. The distance from Noatak is about 30 miles; the distance from Kotzebue is about 30 miles (across bay). 2. Squirrel River site(s). Several warm springs or “seeps” coming from mountains. May or may not be associated with a U anomaly. The distance from Kotzebue is about 40 to 50 miles (across bay); distance from Noatak and Kiana: at least 40 miles each. Sites are: i. ii. iii. reported, possibly associated with natural gas. 4. Singaruk River site. Cold springs that never freeze exist on the trail between Noorvik and Selawik. The distance from Kotzebue is about 75 miles (across sound), while the distances from Noorvik, Selawik and Kiana are about 15 miles each. Probably groundwater upflow/overflow site. Site #4, the Singaruk river site, was visited by the author on February 29, 2008 by snow machine. The spring was cold (32 °F) but there were several open spots, one of which did not appear to have rapid flow. Water samples were collected from that location and sent to the Desert Research Institute laboratory in Reno, Nevada for chemical analyses. The other sites were not visited either because they are too far from population Junction between North Fork of the Squirrel River and Nookati Creek North and south of Kiana hills One creek over from Shiliak Creek 3. Selawik Lake site. A linear zone on the lake that doesn’t freeze is 13
