HJR 101 - CONST.AM: SUBSIT. PREF.BASED ON RESIDENCE Number 0003 CO-CHAIRMAN HUDSON: And I'll ask everybody to just stand by for a moment or two. REPRESENTATIVE BILL WILLIAMS: Could we go through this - amendments in the interest of time? CO-CHAIRMAN HUDSON: As soon as our Chairman comes through here. REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAMS: Do you want us to stand by now, again? CO-CHAIRMAN HUDSON: We may not offer those amendments tonight. UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Are we at-ease? CO-CHAIRMAN HUDSON: We're at-ease [10:25 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.]. Number 0014 CO-CHAIRMAN SCOTT OGAN: We're going to take action today on the constitutional amendment proposed by the Governor's bill, House Joint Resolution 101. We apologize for the delays for some procedural things we're trying get ironed out - how it's going to be taken care of. I know that the Resources Committee has to take action on the bill first. But I will call a brief at-ease and we'll be back in within two minutes [10:32 p.m.]. Number 0024 CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: We have before us HJR 101, Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Alaska authorizing a priority for subsistence uses of renewable natural resources, it's by the House Rules Committee, by request of the Governor. We're going to open it for public testimony. We have had extensive testimony on this. Last summer, when we had hearings all over the state, we had the Administration represented. I'd like to limit testimony to three minutes if there's anybody in the audience who would like to testify. (Indisc.) White would like to testify, I'm sure, he's tired of just sitting here listening to us. Anybody else? Number 0032 REPRESENTATIVE IRENE NICHOLIA: Before we even consider passing this bill out of this committee - I guess that's the plan now, I have a procedural question. My question is, was this resolution given a notice that we would be hearing it today? Okay. I'm confused because we didn't even address this first page of the resolution today, that's why. I was told that it wasn't, so. CO-CHAIRMAN HUDSON: I'd like to correct that. When the attorney generals first arrived, they did speak extensively about this, and then the connection of this to the ANILCA [Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act] amendments. I think we heard pretty ample testimony, not only - obviously the Administration through the development of this across the state of Alaska by the task force. I think we also, at least had - the public an opportunity to see the nexus between the ANILCA amendments, which we're not discussing at the moment, we're talking about the resolution that was presented by the Governor's task force. REPRESENTATIVE NICHOLIA: So it was noticed then, so it was noticed for today's hearing. UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Representative Green, I believe has a comment. Number 0045 REPRESENTATIVE JOE GREEN: When we began our deliberations as a joint committee, I'm not sure you were here. REPRESENTATIVE NICHOLIA: I was here. REPRESENTATIVE GREEN: But I specifically mentioned this bill and that we were taking up the potential ANILCA amendments (indisc.) they would be a part of it, but we did address this bill at our opening. And it'll be on the minutes. REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAMS: Are you ready for a motion Mr. Chairman? CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: No, I'm not. I'd like to again extend the opportunity to anybody in the public, or if the Administration has any comments. Hearing none, the public testimony is closed. Let's have a brief at-ease. Where are the amendments? [10:37 p.m. - 10:39 p.m.]. Number 0053 CO-CHAIRMAN HUDSON: Mr. Chairman, I move House Joint Resolution number 101, the A Version, dated 5/26/98, out of the committee with individual recommendations, and a zero fiscal note, and ask unanimous consent. REPRESENTATIVE NICHOLIA: Object. CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: There's objection, will the secretary please take the roll. Do we have a secretary? Number 0057 REPRESENTATIVE REGGIE JOULE: Mr. Chairman, discussion. CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: Oh, now there's discussion, Representative Joule. REPRESENTATIVE JOULE: This resolution is the only thing on the table? CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: Only thing on the table, the Governor's resolution. REPRESENTATIVE JOULE: This is not attached to it? CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: That's correct. REPRESENTATIVE NICHOLIA: Oh.... UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Do you still want to object? REPRESENTATIVE NICHOLIA: Okay, Wait. What is this then? UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: (Indisc.--noise) yesterday and we did not (indisc.--noise). REPRESENTATIVE NICHOLIA: Okay, I do not object. Number 0064 CO-CHAIRMAN OGAN: Is there any other objection? Going once, going twice, the bill is moved out of this committee.
