SHARON LONG, staff  to Senator Giessel, Alaska  State Legislature,                                                              
Juneau,  Alaska,  explained  that the  committee  substitute  (CS)                                                              
reflects the committee  discussion on Monday. It  incorporates the                                                              
amendment  that was  adopted to  the  original version,  correctly                                                              
naming  the BLM employee  to whom  the resolution  is being  sent.                                                              
Further, the  CS adds a new "Whereas"  clause on page  1, line 13,                                                              
stating that  the term "legacy  wells" doesn't adequately  connote                                                              
the  legacy  of  negligence  and   environmental  damage  that  is                                                              
inflicted by  the NPR-A  wells and  asserts that "travesty  wells"                                                              
better describes their nature.                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                
She explained that  language on page 3, line 14,  asserts that the                                                              
legislature's  preference for  the term  "travesty" is  preferable                                                              
to "legacy"  in light of the  federal government's  negligence. In

noting  a preference  for an  entity hiring  Alaskans with  Arctic                                                              
expertise for any remediation efforts.                                                                                          
                                                                                                                                
CHAIR GIESSEL removed her objection.                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                
3:34:36 PM
