==Facilities, utilities, schools, health care and museum== {{More citations needed section|date=January 2010}} [[File:Dumpsters in Anaktuvuk Pass, Alaska.jpg|thumb|left|Dumpsters in Anaktuvuk Pass, painted with slogans that promote community values.]]The North Slope Borough provides all utilities to Anaktuvuk Pass. Two central wells and a treated watering point at Nunamiut School serve the town for water. Most households have water delivered by truck to holding tanks. A few residents haul their own water. Almost 80% of homes have running water in the kitchen. In 1996, a $17 million project to provide piped water and sewer and household plumbing began construction, which will provide flush toilets and showers for all residences. A new landfill is also near completion{{When|date=January 2010}}. Electricity is provided by North Slope Borough. There is one school in the community, the Nunamiut School, attended by 110 students as of August 10, 2017. The only local health clinic is the Anaktuvuk Pass Health Clinic, a primary health care facility. Anaktuvuk Pass is classified as an isolated village, found in EMS Region 6A in the North Slope Region. Emergency services have access to the town by air. Emergency service is provided by volunteers and health aides; there are no doctors on site. Auxiliary health care is provided by Anaktuvuk Pass Volunteer Fire Department. The Nunamiut's culture is described and preserved through photographs and artifacts at the [[Simon Paneak]] Memorial Museum in Anaktuvuk Pass.<ref name="Museum">{{cite web |url=https://www.north-slope.org/NSB/museum/join%20us/Environmentalists.doc |title=Environmentalists Lend Their Support |access-date=September 23, 2007 |last=Many Authors |publisher=North Slope Borough }}{{dead link|date=October 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>
