At the height of warm weather in Alaska in 1975, temperature measurements were made to determine the extent of the thermal impact on French Creek due to a condenser cooling water impact from the Eielson AFB Power plant. Water temperature measurements during a two-day period failed to show any significant thermal impact on the water in French Creek. It was concluded that no thermal pollution exists due to this warm water input at the volumes and conditions that presently exist. (Author).

A 1949 drill site in the Naval Petroleum Reserve Number 4, Alaska, the Fish Creek Test Well 1, was examined in August 1977 to determine the disturbance caused by drilling activities and to analyze the response and recover of the vegetation, soils, permafrost, and surficial materials to that distrubance. The site, abandoned in 1949, is located along Camp Creek, a tributary to Fish Creek located 28 km. south of Atigaru Point and west of Nuiqsut.
