ACTION NARRATIVE
TAPE 97-12, SIDE A
Number 001
CHAIRMAN BILL WILLIAMS called the House Transportation Standing
Committee to order at 1:10 p.m. Members present at the call to
order were Representatives Williams, Masek, Cowdery, Hudson,
Sanders, Elton and Kookesh.
HB 63 - AVIATION FUEL TAX EXEMPTION
Number 061
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS announced the first order of business to be HB
63, "An Act extending the motor fuel tax exemption for fuel sold
for use in jet propulsion aircraft to fuel used in those aircraft
for flights that continue from a foreign country; and providing for
an effective date."
Number 153
REPRESENTATIVE GENE THERRIAULT stated that he would defer to the
committees wishes on whether they want to take action on the
original bill or the committee substitute with the marine bunker
fuel. He stated that although a number of years ago the
legislature tried to put an incentive into statute to increase the
amount of marine bunker fuel that was sold in the state of Alaska,
the Department of Revenue has provided information that the actual
amount sold in the state has dropped off significantly. He stated
that in 1996, 99,553 gallons of bunker fuel was sold which derived
$5,177 of tax to the state. He stated that adding marine bunker
fuel will not impact the fiscal note very much, but hopefully it
will lure sales back into the state of Alaska. There are a number
of cruise ships that come into the state but they are buying their
product out of state where they have a tax advantage.
Number 304
REPRESENTATIVE JOHN COWDERY stated that it was his understanding
that the bunker fuel or residual oil is also used to make coke in
coal. He asked if there was anything that could be done to enhance
the Beluga Coal Fields.
Number 407
REPRESENTATIVE THERRIAULT stated that this is the first time he had
heard of this and if the committee is uneasy about adding the
bunker fuel onto the bill and would prefer not to,1 that would be
fine.
Number 453
REPRESENTATIVE KIM ELTON asked why is it limited just to passenger
watercraft.
Number 469
REPRESENTATIVE THERRIAULT replied that it is where the potential
sales or utilization of this type of fuel is anticipated to come
from.
Number 493
REPRESENTATIVE BILL HUDSON asked if we were going to take up the
original bill or the committee substitute bill.
Number 507
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS responded that before the committee is the
original bill and it would be up to the committee members if they
want to take up the committee substitute.
Number 558
MARK NECESSARY, Senior Vice President, Tesoro, stated that Tesoro
supports HB 63. He stated that HB 63 will help Alaskan refiners
remain competitive and at this time jet fuel produced outside the
state is entitled to the tax exemption. It will encourage jobs and
investment in the state of Alaska. He stated that recently Tesoro
announced the capital budget for 1997 to be $50 million, of which
$16 million is allocated to expand the hydrocracker unit at the
Kenai refinery which produces jet fuel. He stated that it is
ironic that Tesoro purchases Alaska crude oil at a premium price
then pays tax on a fuel that sells for considerably less than what
is paid for the raw material. He stated that bunker fuel is a
residual from the crude oil after the light ends are extracted in
the refining process. He stated that the only market for residual
fuel oil in Alaska are asphalt, bunker fuel, fuel for tankers and
cruise ships, and re-injection into the Trans-Alaskan Pipeline. He
stated that the intent from Tesoro's prospective is for the bunker
fuel amendment to include all tankers. He stated that the product
is currently subject to state fuel marine tax. He stated that the
tax for bunker fuel is 5 cents per gallon. This tax represents the
disproportional amount of cost for the bunker fuel. He stated that
as a result of the current rate of taxation on this product, Alaska
bunker fuel oil is overpriced and Alaska producers can't compete
with suppliers from outside the state. He stated that even though
many tankers and cruise ships call on Alaskan ports, minimal
quantities of this extremely tax sensitive fuel oil are purchased
in Alaska. He stated that Alaska bunkers contain less sulfur than
the average bunker used in Alaska waters. The Alaska refiner
transports the residual fuel oil to the west coast where it is
combined with an inferior bunker fuel that contains a much higher
level of sulfur, which is sold to the same vessels calling on
Alaska ports. He stated that this tax should be eliminated to
increase the marketability of a quality, value added Alaska
petroleum product in a very competitive market. He stated that
Tesoro would like to have the opportunity to develop the market for
this product.
Number 821
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON asked what Tesoro's average annual tax on the
bunker fuel is and what percentage of the bunker fuel does Tesoro
burn to manufacture other products.
Number 841
MR. NECESSARY stated that Representative Therriault reference to
$5,000 being collected in 1996 probably pertains strictly to cruise
ships. The Tesoro Kenai refinery used 130,000 barrels, this past
year.
Number 880
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON asked if you paid $600,000 in taxes, one-
third of that would be taxes that are being paid on a product that
you are expending yourself.
Number 906
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY referred to his comments earlier regarding
residual fuel being used for coking operations in developing coal
fields and asked if the residual could be used for those purposes.
Number 936
MR. NECESSARY replied that several years ago Tesoro had looked into
that and if the market were to develop, that would be a useful
market for that material.
Number 956
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY stated that the committee substitute should
be addressed.
Number 985
REPRESENTATIVE JERRY SANDERS asked what period of time would $50
million be spent on the expansion.
Number 1005
MR. NECESSARY stated that it would be between now and December 31,
1997.
Number 1013
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS asked how many construction jobs this would
bring to Alaska and if workers would be brought in from outside
Alaska.
Number 1025
MR. NECESSARY replied that the total estimate is about 250
construction jobs, 160 will be allocated to the expansion of the
refinery and from that group it is expected to have 98 percent
Alaskan hire.
Number 1052
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS asked if it would primarily increase the jet
fuel or would it increase the bunker fuel as well.
Number 1066
MR. NECESSARY stated that it will increase the amount of jet fuel
by 1,700 barrels per day.
Number 1074
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS asked that wouldn't it increase the bunker
fuel as well, since it is a by-product.
Number 1081
MR. NECESSARY responded that it will not increase the amount of the
heavy material coming through the refinery. He stated that the
unit it would be processed through would be a hydrocracker unit,
which cracks the molecule into smaller molecules, which produces
jet fuel.
Number 1097
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS asked who the bunker fuel is sold to.
Number 1107
MR. NECESSARY replied that it is sold to the Liquid and Natural Gas
(LNG) Tankers that run between Nikiski and Japan and the rest is
for their own tankers.
Number 1133
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS asked that in other words, you are selling
this to yourself and paying a tax on it. He asked if the reason it
is bought here is because they can't buy it in Japan.
MR. NECESSARY replied that he could not answer that, but he would
presume that is the reason.
Number 1148
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS stated that he would think with their
operations on Sahlalin island it would just be a short period of
time until they would be selling it to themselves in Japan and that
Tesoro would lose that market too and asked if Tesoro would be the
only one in Alaska that is paying the tax.
MR. NECESSARY replied that is correct.
Number 1169
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS stated that he thought the committee
substitute should be addressed.
Number 1180
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON asked if someone from revenue could address
the dollar amounts, so we would know not just from the industry but
also from the agencies.
Number 1203
BOB BARTHOLOMEW, Deputy Director, Income and Excise Audit Division,
Department of Revenue, stated that the history of bunker fuel sales
in 1994 and 1995 equaled $200,000 in revenue. In 1996 what has
been reported as sale of bunker fuel has dropped off considerably.
He stated it could be because consumption has dropped off or
because it was netted with other kinds of fuel upon reporting. He
stated that an option that the state took and the department
supported was in 1994, a proposed alternative to the complete
repeal of the tax. A special act was passed that stated a certain
threshold on bunker fuel, which was 4 million gallons and as soon
as this was sold the tax was dropped from 5 cents a gallon to 1
cent a gallon. This provided an incentive to sell bunker fuel and
the state still received some of the revenue. He stated that an
option would be to extend this option that expires in 1998. He
stated that the 400 million gallons equates to $200,000 dollars in
tax.
Number 1365
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON made a motion to adopt CSHB 63, B draft,
before the committee.
Number 1380
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS asked if there were any objections.
Number 1386
REPRESENTATIVE ELTON stated that he would object for clarification
purposes. He stated that the draft before us now would only apply
to bunker fuel that is sold to passenger watercraft. He asked if
he was correct in sensing that there is some wish to expand that
beyond passenger watercraft.
Number 1439
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY stated that it was his intentions to extend
it so it would allow development of the Beluga Coal Field, because
it is a low yield field and it is one of the largest fields on tide
water in the nation, but in order to make it competitive there
needs to be a residual of oil.
Number 1480
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON stated that he believed the committee
substitute needs to be adopted before it could be amended.
Number 1497
REPRESENTATIVE ELTON stated that he would maintain his objection.
Number 1515
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS called for a roll call vote. Representatives
Cowdery, Kookesh, Hudson, Sanders, Masek and Williams voted in
favor of the motion. Representative Elton voted against motion.
Committee Substitute HB 63 was adopted before the committee.
Number 1525
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY asked the Department of Revenue where it
would be appropriate to put the amendment in the bill.
Number 1556
MR. BARTHOLOMEW stated that the department has not been involved in
the drafting of the amendment so he would hesitate to comment until
he has the intent in writing.
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY stated that maybe the language could be
added in the next committee of referral.
Number 1604
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS stated that maybe the committee could agree
on an conceptual amendment.
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS stated that a memo will be sent along with the
bill.
Number 1623
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON stated that if we are going modify or amend
the bill then we would have to ask for an amended fiscal note to
carry along with it. He suggested that the committee pass out the
bill and attach a letter of intent to the next committee of
referral.
Number 1653
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS stated that if page 2, line 21 had the word
passenger eliminated from it would eliminate the need for lines 24
through 26.
Number 1684
REPRESENTATIVE ELTON stated that it would not address
Representative Cowdery's concern of the use of this kind of fuel to
create a coal slurry. He stated that the reason he objected to the
bill was because he had a sense that the committee would want to go
on further. He would prefer it if it just addressed the problem
that was originally presented, this is a last minute change that
will lead to further change. He stated that the committee is
taking a bill that addresses a discreet problem and is trying to
fix other things by reducing the revenue that comes to the state at
a time when more programs are being taken out. He stated that it
is a problem that Tesoro pays a tax on fuel that they are selling
to themselves but beyond that causes problems. He stated that the
committee is making a substantive change that is going to make him
rethink his position on the bill.
Number 1808
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS stated that this was talked about when the bill
was first brought to the committee and the language of the title of
the bill was tightened up. He stated that this should take care of
Representative Elton's concern.
Number 1837
REPRESENTATIVE ELTON stated, "that it does help a lot. I guess the
growth that I see in this bill is I can swallow this bill when it
says passenger watercraft. I might even be able to swallow this
bill if it says passenger watercraft and let's not tax somebody
selling bunker fuel to themselves. Going beyond that would be
allowed under the title." He stated that the coking idea for coal
may be a great idea and he understands that there could be a
potential problem competing with refineries, that in the future may
be placed overseas at which he would then revisit the bill. He
stated he is not comfortable with extending this, in light of a
potential problem down the road when it means that we are taking
$200,000 out of the general fund.
Number 1882
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY stated that he would have no problem moving
the bill and working with the sponsor in the next committee of
referral.
Number 1911
REPRESENTATIVE BEVERLY MASEK made a motion to move CSHB 63(TRA), 0-
LS0262\B, Chenoweth, 2/26/97 with the following fiscal notes and
individual recommendations.
Number 1930
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS asked if there was an objection. Hearing none,
CSHB 63(TRA) was moved out of the House Transportation Standing
Committee.
HB 95 - MOTOR VEHICLE INSURANCE & LICENSING
Number 1992
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS stated that the next order of business is HB 95,
"An Act relating to motor vehicle registration, licensing, and
insurance; and providing for an effective date." He stated that
the bill was amended at the last meeting.
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK asked which version of the bill the committee
was working from.
Number 2019
JUANITA HENSLEY, Chief Driver Services, Office of the Commissioner,
Department of Public Safety, stated that the committee was working
from the original draft of the bill, Version E, with two amendments
1 and 2. Amendment 1 failed and Amendment 2 was adopted.
Number 2035
REPRESENTATIVE AL KOOKESH asked if under the exemption for
insurance, other than being a self insurer, is the exemption on
page 3, off road system.
Number 2050
MS. HENSLEY replied, "Yes, that it is anyone that is determined by
the Department of Transportation and Public Facilities studies that
have fewer then 499 daily traffic." She stated that there are
those that have the off systems drivers license that are exempt
from this.
Number 2068
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK stated that page 2, Section D, line 5 through
8, if an insurance company did not put forth the required paperwork
could they be suspended or lose their license.
Number 2140
MS. HENSLEY stated that this is placed through the Division of
Insurance Statutes and it would be the reporting requirements and
the Division of Insurance Requirements. She stated if the division
found that a person was not following the intent of the law by
providing the information to the Department of Public Safety, then
the provisions of existing law would step in.
Number 2194
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK asked that it seems that statute already
requires drivers to carry insurance in the state.
Number 2225
MS. HENSLEY stated that it is mandatory that everyone certify their
vehicle, at the time they are registering their vehicle, that the
vehicle meets the limits of liability under Alaska Statute, Title
28, Chapter 22. She stated that the division does not require
proof to be shown, it is a self certification program. The only
time that a person is required to submit proof that the vehicle is
insured is after the fact of an accident, resulting in damages
greater that $501. She stated that they have 15 days from the date
of the accident to submit proof that the vehicle is insured. She
stated that what they are doing in the bill, is at the time of
registration the insurance will be verified though the electronic
media.
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK stated that since there is already a law why
not go after the offenders. We need to enforce the laws that are
on the books rather than make the insurance companies more
accountable.
Number 2268
MS. HENSLEY stated that the provision does go after the individuals
if they are involved in an accident and do not submit the proof
that they are insured, the Division of Motor Vehicles suspends the
uninsured driver's license regardless of fault. She stated that
the bill allows the department to electronically verify that the
person was insured on the spot, eliminating paperwork.
Number 2278
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK stated that on page 1, Section 1, line 7, of
the bill, regarding the monthly reporting, it seems like it is
going after the private sector. She stated maybe it should be
reported at the time the insurance is purchased. She stated it is
putting a bigger burden on the industry rather than having the
agencies do the job.
Number 2353
MS. HENSLEY stated that the division updates changes monthly and
the insurance industry already has an electronic medium. She
stated that all the large insurance companies are on the electronic
database. She stated that the division will have access to the
database and will eliminate having to get the information through
paper shuffling. It will benefit the way the division does
business. She stated that last year, the division eliminated four
positions from the budget.
TAPE 97-12, SIDE B
Number 007
MS. HENSLEY stated that enacting an electronic verification
program, will allow the financial responsibility program to be
reinstated.
Number 034
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY stated that there is very little proof
required at present to show that a driver is insured.
Number 055
MS. HENSLEY stated that is correct.
Number 077
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY stated that after an accident the only thing
that can be done is to take the license away. He stated that the
bill enforces that existing law to a higher degree.
Number 116
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON asked if the lists are able to become public.
Number 132
MS. HENSLEY replied that page 5, lines 10 through 12 stated that
database companies can't disclose information on the file.
Number 156
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON asked that if there is anything in the bill
that addresses out of state insurers being on the line to easily
report in every 30 days.
Number 179
MS. HENSLEY stated that if they are licensed to do business in the
state of Alaska, they have to be approved by the Division of
Insurance and they would be required to report to the database
company.
Number 206
REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS asked if Ms. Hensley said that they are
going to eliminate four people if this goes through.
Number 220
MS. HENSLEY replied no, the division eliminated four people last
year and lost a whole program. She stated that what they wanted to
do is free up people that are doing the paper shuffling to
reinstate the program.
Number 263
REPRESENTATIVE HUDSON stated that we are adding an additional cost
to the industries. He stated that the bill appealed to him because
of the possibility that the uninsured motorist could be eliminated
and decrease the liability that all of the insured motorists have.
Number 330
MS. HENSLEY stated that there are those individuals who are never
going to have insurance but this will cut the uninsured motorists
quite drastically. She stated that the one state that has this law
has cut their uninsured motorists by half.
Number 367
MICHAEL LESSMEIER, Attorney, State Farm Insurance, stated that
everytime the legislature passes a bill that raises the cost of
doing business, the cost has to be passed onto the customers. He
stated that the problem that is trying to be solved is one of
uninsured drivers, who usually can't afford insurance to begin with
and by making the product more expensive, will not solve the
problem. He stated that when the company does better than the loss
experienced, money is given back. In 1987 and 1988 State Farm
Insurance issued a 20 percent premium refund. He stated that the
issue is enforcement. If the bill is passed without anymore
enforcement mechanisms in it, it will not affect the number of
uninsured drivers. He stated that proof of insurance at the time
of registration would not cost the industry or the policy holders
any additional money. He also suggested that when stopped for a
traffic violation proof of insurance should also be checked.
MR. LESSMEIER stated that there ought to be an independent audit of
the situation to see if it is working. He stated that
confidentiality could be a problem. He urged a need for caution,
with the bill. He stated that insurance companies may be set up
electronically but they are not set up to transfer information.
Number 683
REPRESENTATIVE ELTON stated that the bill will add efficiencies to
the agency operation and may lead to reinstatement of a program
that could benefit the insurance industries.
Number 717
MR. LESSMEIER stated that not all insurance companies are
computerized. He stated that the Motor Vehicle Safety
Responsibility Act should be separate from the bill, he stated that
a new computer system will result in time to make it operational.
He stated that the legislature should give the division funding to
reinstate the act.
Number 790
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK asked if any insurance companies have the
database set up.
Number 813
MR. LESSMEIER replied that he didn't believe so.
Number 830
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY made a motion to move CSHB 95(TRA) out of
the House Transportation Standing Committee.
Number 841
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK objected for purpose of discussion. She
stated that she would like to offer an amendment to page 1, Section
1, line 7, to change each calendar month to "an insurer that issues
an automobile liability insurance policy in this state shall within
fifteen days of the policy inception date or cancellation, report
to the Department of Public Safety a record of each motor vehicle
insurance policy issued by the insurer."
Number 888
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS stated that he will accept that amendment at this
time, but from here on out he will not accept an amendment that is
brought before the committee at the time there is a meeting. He
stated that he would appreciate getting the amendments a day before
as members expect the bill to be before them a day before.
Number 915
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS objected to the amendment.
Number 924
REPRESENTATIVE MASEK stated that basically what the amendment would
do is instead of having the insurance company comply every month it
would give them the opportunity to provide the information within
15 days of the policy inception date or cancellation date to the
Department of Public Safety.
Number 957
KRISTY TIBBLES, Legislative Secretary to Representative Joe Green,
stated that Representative Green would prefer not to have the
amendment in the bill, although he is not entirely opposed. She
stated that monthly reporting would be more accurate.
Number 1000
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS stated that there are two motions on the floor he
asked that the motion to move the bill be withdrawn.
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY withdrew the motion to move CSHB 95(TRA).
Number 1012
REPRESENTATIVE ELTON stated that instead of turning over the whole
database monthly, the insurer would only be required to provide
notice of new policies that are written or provide notice of
policies that were expired and not renewed. He asked what would be
less of a burden on the industry, doing these as they occur within
fifteen days or each month.
Number 1061
MS. TIBBLES responded that it appears for large insurance companies
it would be less of a burden to report monthly, however for smaller
companies it is easier to report as they receive the cancellations.
Number 1108
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS asked for a roll call vote on Amendment 3.
Representatives Elton, Sanders, Hudson, Kookesh, Cowdery, Masek
voted in favor of Amendment 3. Chairman Williams voted against
Amendment 3. Amendment 3 passed.
Number 1120
REPRESENTATIVE COWDERY made a motion to move CSHB 95(TRA) as
amended, with the attached fiscal note and individual
recommendations.
Number 1133
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS asked if there was any objections. Hearing none,
CSHB 95(TRA) was moved out of the House Transportation Standing
Committee.
ADJOURNMENT
Number 1137
CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS stated that the House Transportation Standing
Committee is adjourned at 2:35 p.m.
