  • ALFA has helped Southeast Alaska fishermen to install fuel flow meters and data loggers to collect data collected to build a fuel efficiency audit and make recommendations for improving fuel efficiency. This work was carried out in partnership with the Alaska Fisheries Development Foundation, the Alaska Sea Grant Marine Advisory Program, Alaris Company marine engineers, and individual vessel operators, with support from the Oak Foundation.
