HB 256-RUTH BURNETT SPORT FISH HATCHERY CO-CHAIR THOMAS announced that the first order of business would be HOUSE BILL NO. 256, "An Act naming the Ruth Burnett Sport Fish Hatchery in Fairbanks." REPRESENTATIVE JAY RAMRAS, Alaska State Legislature, presented HB 256 as sponsor. He explained that the bill would name the proposed new sport fish hatchery in Fairbanks the Ruth Burnett Sport Fish Hatchery. REPRESENTATIVE HARRIS asked Representative Ramras to provide the committee with some background information on Ms. Burnett. 8:46:33 AM REPRESENTATIVE RAMRAS pointed out that Ms. Burnett, late former mayor of Fairbanks, originally conceived of the idea of a fish hatchery there. She also worked as the Fairbanks aide for U.S. Senator Ted Stevens. He noted that the proposed hatchery location is near Ms. Burnett's former home. He commented, "She one of the greatest ladies that I ever had the privilege of knowing through my youth and young adulthood." REPRESENTATIVE ELKINS remarked, "She led the fight to clean up that area down around the Chena River, ... and was very successful." 8:48:21 AM REPRESENTATIVE WILSON moved to report HB 256 out of committee with individual recommendations and the accompanying fiscal notes. There being no objection, HB 256 was reported from the House Special Committee on Fisheries.
