Background: According to ANTHC Final Report re Kivalina Alaska tests, 8/6/17 , "The PASS system is a low-cost alternative to piped infrastructure...to protect public health...a pilot project ...to provide immediate improvement in quality of life for residents across rural Alaska that are currently without sanitation systems in their homes" .The project was initiated in 2013 with pilot installations in Kivalina (2015) and later at Chalkytsik, Alatna, Allakaket, Newtok, Mertarvik, and Oscarville. Future installations are in the planning stage.
