Number 001
CHAIRMAN RICK HALFORD called the Senate Rules Committee meeting to
order at 2:53 p.m.
SENATOR RIEGER moved and asked unanimous consent that SB 92 (REAA
ADVISORY VOTES) be approved for calendaring at the Chair's
discretion. Hearing no objection, it was so ordered.
CHAIRMAN HALFORD opened the public hearing on SR 5 (NORTH PACIFIC
FISHERY MANAGEMENT COUNCIL).
SENATOR ZHAROFF, prime sponsor of SR 5, said the resolution is in
response to the host of opposition to the nomination of Clem
Tillion to a seat on the North Pacific Fisheries Management
Council. He said throughout the years Mr. Tillion has been quite
controversial and from his comments has created a lot of
divisiveness throughout the fisheries communities in the state. He
stated he has received numerous telephone calls and public opinion
messages in support of the resolution.
SENATOR LITTLE noted that she has had approximately 12 calls from
people who favor the resolution and only two calls opposing it.
There being no further testimony on SR 5, CHAIRMAN HALFORD asked
for the will of the committee.
SENATOR ZHAROFF moved and asked unanimous consent that SR 5 be
passed out of committee with individual recommendations. Hearing
no objection, it was so ordered.
SENATOR ZHAROFF moved and asked unanimous consent that SR 5 be
approved for calendaring at the Chair's discretion. Hearing no
objection, it was so ordered.
There being no further business to come before the committee, the
meeting was adjourned at 2:58 p.m.
