The Denali Commission is an independent federal agency based on an innovative federal-state partnership designed to provide critical utilities, infrastructure and support for economic development and training in Alaska by delivering federal services in the most cost effective manner possible. The Commission was created in 1998 with passage of the Denali Commission Act (Title III of Public Law 105-277, 42 USC 3121).

The Commission outlines funding priorites in an annual Work Plan that is adopted annually after a public comment process and signed off on by Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke. The FY10 Work Plan was approved July 15, 2010.
