Bethel Native Corporation is working on an alternative location for its liquor license.
The corporation received the license from the Alaska Alcoholic Beverage Control Board in November for its Kipusvik building. Last week, BNC leased the same building to the Lower Kuskokwim School District to house the Ayaprun Yup’ik immersion program for three to five years until a new school is constructed.
