SB 50 SENATE BILL NO. 50 BY THE SENATE RULES COMMITTEE BY REQUEST OF THE GOVERNOR, entitled: "An Act relating to the programs and bonds of the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority; related to the financing authorization through the 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0196 Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority of a liquefied natural gas production plant and natural gas energy projects and distribution systems in the state; amending and repealing bond authorizations granted to the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority; and providing for an effective date." was read the first time and referred to the Senate Special Committee on Energy, Resources and Finance Committees. The following fiscal information was published today: Fiscal Note No. 1, zero, Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development Governor's transmittal letter dated February 10: Dear President Meyer: Under the authority of Article III, Section 18 of the Alaska Constitution, I am transmitting a bill relating to the programs of the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA). The bill would increase the dollar amount limitations imposed on AIDEA in bond and loan participation programs. The bill also would amend provisions relating to the authority of AIDEA to advance a liquefied natural gas production plant and natural gas energy projects and distribution systems in the state. Additionally, the bill would repeal eight bond authorizations for AIDEA that it has not used and does not intend to use. AIDEA is subject to dollar limits that it cannot exceed without obtaining approvals from the Legislature or local governmental bodies. The dollar amount limitations restrict the bonds that AIDEA may issue under its loan participation program or under its development finance program, and they limit the loan participations AIDEA can purchase from its own funds that are not derived from bond proceeds. The bill would amend AS 44.88.155 to authorize AIDEA to issue up to $25,000,000 in bonds for loan participations without the necessity of obtaining prior legislative approval. The amendment to 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0197 AS 44.88.155 also would allow AIDEA to purchase loan participations up to $25,000,000 out of AIDEA's enterprise development account without the use of bond proceeds. The $25,000,000 limit established in the bill's amendment is a $5,000,000 increase over the existing limit now in effect. The bill also would amend AS 44.88.095(g) to authorize AIDEA to issue up to $25,000,000 in bonds for development finance projects without the necessity of obtaining prior legislative approval. The $25,000,000 amount set in this section of the bill is a $15,000,000 increase over the existing limit now in the statute. In addition, the bill revises AIDEA's dollar limit on issuing bonds for a project without obtaining a certified resolution from the local governing body or the Regional Resource Advisory Council consenting to the location of the project. The $10,000,000 limit in the bill is an increase over the present $6,000,000 limit in AS 44.88.095(c). The dollar limits on AIDEA's bonding authority and loan participation purchases were established years ago and have not been adjusted for inflation. AIDEA needs to have its limits increased to keep pace with inflation and to better reflect the current finance market environment. Also, increasing the limits on AIDEA's bonding authority and on its loan participations will allow AIDEA to finance larger projects and thereby better fulfill its mission of promoting economic development in the state. The existing bonding limits imposed on AIDEA have lessened its ability to utilize bonding as a financing tool due to the time it takes to get authorization from the Legislature and to go through the local government approval process. The bill would amend AIDEA's authorization with respect to financing a liquefied natural gas production facility and affiliated infrastructure. The original enactment (Chap. 26, SLA 2013) authorized AIDEA to provide up to $275,000,000 in financing under the sustainable energy transmission and supply development (SETS) program for a liquefied natural gas production plant on the North Slope and for a natural gas distribution system in Interior Alaska. The bill would expand the authority to allow for the development, construction, and installation of, and the startup costs of operation and 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0198 maintenance for, a liquefied natural gas production plant and affiliated infrastructure and natural gas energy projects and distribution systems and affiliated infrastructure in the state. This broadening of AIDEA's authorization would allow AIDEA the flexibility to finance projects designed to address energy needs in the state. In addition, the bill would repeal eight prior bond authorizations that AIDEA has not used or, in one case, only partially used. These bond authorizations were for projects that did not proceed or that went forward without using bond financing or the full amount of bond financing authorized. The eight bond authorizations the bill would repeal are: (1) 1992 authorization to issue $85,000,000 in bonds for aircraft maintenance facilities at the Anchorage International Airport; AIDEA issued $28,000,000 in bonds to finance the FedEx maintenance hangar at the airport, but never issued the remaining $57,000,000 in authorized bonds, and the $28,000,000 in bonds AIDEA actually issued have now been fully repaid; (2) 1993 authorization, amended in 1996, to issue $50,000,000 in bonds for bulk commodity port facilities located within Cook Inlet; (3) 1993 authorization to issue $50,000,000 in bonds for a seafood processing facility in Anchorage; (4) 1995 authorization to issue $20,000,000 in bonds to finance the Kodiak rocket launch complex and tracking station; (5) 1998 authorization to issue $80,000,000 in bonds to expand and modify AIDEA's existing port facilities connected to the DeLong Mountain transportation system and to add new facilities to DeLong Mountain transportation system, which serve the Red Dog Mine in the Northwest Arctic Borough; 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0199 (6) 1998 authorization to issue $30,000,000 in bonds to finance improvements to the Nome port facilities; (7) 1998 authorization, amended in 2006, to issue $25,000,000 in bonds to finance the development of Hatcher Pass in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough; and (8) 2004 authorization to issue $20,000,000 in bonds to finance the development of a port and related facilities at Slate Creek and Cascade Point on Lynn Canal in Southeast Alaska. Repealing these "stale" authorizations would allow AIDEA to remove them from AIDEA's financial statements and disclosure statements, which would strengthen AIDEA's creditworthiness and its position with the bond-rating agencies and put AIDEA in a better position to proceed with providing financing for a liquefied natural gas production and distribution system and natural gas energy projects and distribution systems in the state. I urge your prompt and favorable action on this measure. Sincerely, /s/ Bill Walker Governor SB 51 SENATE BILL NO. 51 BY THE SENATE RULES COMMITTEE BY REQUEST OF THE GOVERNOR, entitled: "An Act relating to the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act, including jurisdiction by tribunals of the state, registration and proceedings related to support orders from other state tribunals, foreign support orders, foreign tribunals, and certain persons residing in foreign countries; relating to determination of parentage of a child; and providing for an effective date." 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0200 was read the first time and referred to the Judiciary and Finance Committees. The following fiscal information was published today: Fiscal Note No. 1, zero, Department of Revenue Governor's transmittal letter dated February 10: Dear President Meyer: Under the authority of Article III, Section 18 of the Alaska Constitution, I am transmitting a bill relating to the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act to update Alaska's laws on enforcement of family support orders. The Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA) applies to actions relating to the establishment, modification, and enforcement of support orders and the determination of parentage in situations where the parties reside in different states or where one party resides in a foreign country. In 1995, Alaska adopted the UIFSA (AS 25.25.010 - 25.25.903). In 2008, the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (also known as the Uniform Law Commission) approved amendments to UIFSA to incorporate the provisions of the Convention on the International Recovery of Child Support and Other Forms of Family Maintenance (Convention), concluded at The Hague, November 23, 2007. The Convention contains provisions to establish uniform procedures for the processing of international child support orders. In order to maintain compliance with federal law and treaty obligations and to continue to qualify for federal funding programs for child support matters, there is a compelling need to update Alaska's statutes this legislative session by adopting the 2008 amendments to the UIFSA. The proposed bill is limited to amendments needed to integrate the 2008 updates to UIFSA into State law. The amendments must be effective by July 1, 2015, to comply with federal law. 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0201 First, the bill would amend the UIFSA to remove the fiction that a "foreign country" is a state of the United States by amending existing text referring to a tribunal of this state to add "or a foreign country." Second, the proposed bill would provide guidelines relating to the registration, enforcement, and modification of foreign support orders from countries that, like the United States, are parties to the Convention. A third component of the bill would improve the enforcement of United States child support orders abroad and would ensure that children living in the United States would receive financial support due them from parents, wherever the parents reside. These amendments would benefit Alaska families by ensuring stable and predictable enforcement of Alaska family support orders in other states and abroad. Additionally, it would ensure that residents of this state would be able to enforce support orders in this state, regardless of where they originated. Presently, 11 states have enacted the 2008 amendments to the UIFSA; this number will grow considerably this year as other states work to enact the 2008 amendments. In addition, at least 12 states have introduced legislation this year to enact the 2008 changes; we expect others will follow. This bill has the support of Alaska's child support enforcement agency. Additional information on the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act 2008 amendments prepared by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws is available from my staff. I urge your prompt and favorable action on this measure. Sincerely, /s/ Bill Walker Governor 2015-02-11 Senate Journal Page 0202 Consideration of the Calendar Citations Honoring - John D.
