ACTION NARRATIVE
3:29:35 PM
CHAIR CLICK BISHOP called the Senate Community and Regional
Affairs Standing Committee meeting to order at 3:29 p.m. Present
at the call to order were Senators Gray-Jackson, Birch,
Costello, and Chair Bishop.
HJR 10-SUPPORTING ROAD BELT ELECTRICAL LINE
3:30:23 PM
CHAIR BISHOP announced the consideration of House Joint
Resolution 10 (HJR 10).
3:30:34 PM
REPRESENTATIVE DAVE TALERICO, Alaska State Legislature, Juneau,
Alaska, sponsor of HJR 10, explained that the resolution
supports the development of a road belt electrical transmission
line and urges the members of the Alaska delegation to pursue
the development of the electrical transmission line for the
state.
He detailed that Alaska has a rail belt intertie which runs from
Homer to Fairbanks and down to Delta Junction. For years the
road belt electrical transmission line has been studied to
complete what is called a bus loop that would go up the Glenn
Highway and the Richardson Highway and complete a looped
electrical system that would provide contiguous power and the
ability to have redundancy along the road system.
He said one of the reasons for interest in having the Alaska
congressional delegation support the road belt electrical
transmission line is due to the state's developments with the
U.S. Department of Defense at Eielson Air Force Base, Clear Air
Force Station Base, and Fort Greely Army Base. The main theme
behind HRJ 10 is to support the national defense system by
making sure power is available.
He explained that as projects proceed at military bases in
Alaska, the state's economic base and population base are also
expanded. Along the road belt corridor there are 17 smaller
communities that will benefit from lower cost energy. Economic
development will be improved for communities, mines, and
agriculture.
He said the first phase of the project will start with a study.
Concerns regarding an underground alternative for overhead lines
in certain areas will be addressed.
3:31:35 PM
SENATOR HOFFMAN joined the committee meeting.
3:34:10 PM
CHAIR BISHOP noted that the committee received a comprehensive
overview of the road belt electrical transmission line on March
14, 2019. He said Representative Talerico reemphasized the
importance and need in support of the resolution to the
congressional delegation.
3:34:37 PM
CHAIR BISHOP opened public testimony.
3:34:52 PM
CRYSTAL ENKVIST, Executive Director, Alaska Power Association,
Anchorage, Alaska, testified in support of HJR 10. She said the
association supports the deployment of electric transmission
infrastructure that brings reliable electricity to Alaskans and
stimulates economic development. Should the transmission project
receive the necessary funding support from the federal
government, the reliability of Alaska's electric system would
increase. More renewable energy will be allowed, power
reliability to military installations will increase, an
alternate power route for the Anchorage-Fairbanks intertie will
be provided, and economic development opportunities in the
Greater Cooper Valley Region will be enabled.
3:37:08 PM
CHAIR BISHOP closed public testimony.
3:37:29 PM
SENATOR BIRCH moved to report [CSHJR 10(RES)], version 31-
LS0596\S, from committee with individual recommendations and
attached zero fiscal note.
3:37:43 PM
CHAIR BISHOP found no objection and CSHJR 10(RES) moved from
Senate Community and Regional Affairs Standing Committee.
3:37:47 PM
At ease.
HJR 14-URGING SUPPORT FOR NOME DEEP-DRAFT PORT
3:39:24 PM
CHAIR BISHOP reconvened the meeting and announced the
consideration of House Joint Resolution 14 (HJR 14).
3:40:04 PM
REPRESENTATIVE NEAL FOSTER, Alaska State Legislature, Juneau,
Alaska, sponsor of HJR 14, explained that the resolution asks
for three things regarding the Nome deep draft Arctic port.
First, it urges the Alaska congressional delegation to pursue
infrastructure funding. Second, it asks the Alaska Department of
Transportation and Public Facilities to send a letter to the
Alaska congressional delegation supporting the deep draft Arctic
port in Nome. Third, it asks the Alaska Department of
Transportation and Public Facilities to work collaboratively
with the City of Nome to provide technical support. The
resolution does not ask for funding from the state. The deep
draft Arctic port project has been underway for some time. Due
to previous funding, the project is ready and able to complete
final feasibility and design. HJR 14, if passed, expresses the
legislature's and the department's support for the critical
maritime transportation project in Nome.
3:41:31 PM
JOY BAKER, Port Director, City of Nome, Nome, Alaska, testified
in support of HJR 14. She explained that the Arctic deep draft
port is a project that the City of Nome has been moving towards
for many years.
She addressed, "Arctic Deep Draft Port Study: Site Selection" as
follows:
• The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Alaska Department
of Transportation and Public Facilities evaluated 13
locations in the 2011-2015 "Alaska Deep Draft Arctic Port
Study."
• Nome was selected as the most cost-effective location for
further investigation and initial investment.
• Site selection was based on:
o Existing Port Infrastructure,
o Intermodal Connections,
o Uplands Support,
o Water Depth,
o Navigation Accessibility.
She noted that the project was paused when Royal Dutch Shell
pulled out of the Arctic in 2015.
She addressed, "Port of Nome Modification Feasibility Study" as
follows:
• 2016 Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation Act
(WIIN Act) provided new provisions to allow the Nome Arctic
Port Study to proceed:
o Remote and Subsistence Harbor Authority allows the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to include non-economic
factors in the study and design of projects in the
region.
o Requires that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to
consult with U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S.
Coast Guard to:
square4 Identify national security benefits associated
with an Arctic deep draft port.
square4 Authorizes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to
consider such benefits in determining whether an
Arctic deep draft port is feasible.
• New authorities enabled the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to
execute a cost-share agreement with the City of Nome for
further investigation of an Arctic Deep Draft Port:
o Study schedule:
square4 Federal Cost-Share Agreement (FCSA):
• February 2018.
square4 Alternatives Milestone:
• June 2018.
square4 Tentatively Selected Plan:
• March 2019.
square4 Agency Decision Milestone:
• August 2019.
square4 MSC Transmittal of Final Report:
• March 2020.
square4 Chief's Report Signed:
• June 2020.
3:43:42 PM
MS. BAKER addressed, "Benefits of Developing Maritime
Infrastructure in the U.S. Arctic" as follows:
• Supports the people and communities in the region.
• Addresses elements of increasing maritime traffic.
• Responds to growing strategic interest in the region.
• Supports development of significant natural resource
potential.
• Prepares for unique marine environmental challenges.
• Captures benefits at regional, state and federal levels,
namely in the protection of:
o National Security,
o Life Safety,
o Environmental Safety,
o Economic Viability,
o Sustaining Culture.
She noted that Arctic maritime activity continues to rise due to
the available open water and increased interest in navigating
the Arctic waters for the purposes of commodity movement,
resource development, tourism, geopolitical and strategic
reasons.
MS. BAKER addressed, "Targeted Benefits of Expansion to Deeper
Water" as follows:
• National Security & Life Safety:
o Critical refuel and resupply support.
o Strengthen U.S. presence in Arctic.
• Environmental Safety:
o Reducing offshore fuel transfers.
• Economic and Cultural Sustainability:
o Lowering regional transportation costs.
• Tourism:
o Support increased ship calls with more ice-hardened
vessels in construction.
• Research:
o Enhanced mission support.
• Resource Development:
o Oil, gas, and mining resupply.
She said having a deep draft Arctic port in Nome will save
larger ships three to five sailing days to Dutch Harbor for
vessels transiting and working in the Arctic.
She said the additional scope of the feasibility study is to
provide safe, reliable, and efficient navigation for trans-
shipping fuel, cargo, and gravel through the Arctic region.
3:45:18 PM
She addressed, "Port of Nome Shore-Based Infrastructure
Development" as follows:
• Nome's Strategic Development Plan:
o Thirty-four acres of laydown property available for
use.
o Sixteen acres in development, more in planning phase.
o Moorage expansion area fully permitted and designed:
square4 Congestion will be mitigated in the Small Boat
Harbor.
o Haul-out facilities currently being upgraded and
expanded.
o Alaska Department of Transportation and Public
Facilities' improvements scheduled to 2021.
o Alaska Department of Transportation and Public
Facilities' Nome Port Road improvements scheduled for
2021.
• Port Reception Facilities:
o Federal, state, regional and local stakeholders should
work together to accelerate construction of port
facilities that meet International Maritime
Organization (IMO) Polar Code regulations to service
U.S. vessels as well as international traffic.
o Minimizing operational discharges helps:
square4 Protect Arctic marine environment for subsistence
hunting and fishing.
square4 Enhance maritime operations by extending vessel
duration in the region.
MS. BAKER said one of Nome's priority projects is developing a
port reception facility to accept all forms of ship waste from
the regional and Arctic maritime fleets. The project, which is
in the planning and design phase, is critical for protecting the
marine and environment which many use as a significant source of
subsistence foods across the region.
3:46:10 PM
She addressed, "Arctic Deep Draft Port: Path Forward" as
follows:
• Feasibility Study Tentatively Selected Plan:
o Extend Causeway 3,500 feet.
o Construct three docks in deep basin dredged to 40-foot
Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW).
o Remove breakwater.
o Construct new 3,900-foot causeway with ship dock;
o Dredge existing outer basin to 28-foot MLLW.
• Project Delivery Schedule:
o Chief's Report scheduled to Congress in June 2020.
o Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) 2018 allows
project to move into design upon signed Chief's
Report.
o Congress is expected to authorize the project in
FY2021-FY2022.
o Project bid and construction could start as early as
2023 and last through 2027.
She addressed, "Building an Arctic Deep Draft Port at Nome" as
follows:
• The City of Nome requests project support from the Alaska
State Legislature to do the following:
o Assist in bringing economic development to the region
to support jobs for Alaskan residents.
o Assist in sustaining the Alaska Native culture by
protecting marine food resources and the environment.
o Attract investment capital in maritime infrastructure
development through a variety of P3 agreements.
o Assist in generating long-term economic benefits to
the region, the state and the nation.
o Capitalize on opportunities to develop the Arctic's
natural resources while sustaining the environment.
o Provide suitable maritime infrastructure for Arctic
tour ships and attracting more ships to the state.
MS. BAKER said the City of Nome is not seeking funding from the
legislature but requests support for the projects with the
passage of HJR 14. The deep draft port project is essential for
supporting the region's economies, the state's natural
resources, and the nation's sovereignty and security. Therefore,
it is important to demonstrate the state of Alaska's support for
Nome's national project.
CHAIR BIRCH noted that he was the project manager for Nome's
causeway extension in the mid-1980s that the proposed project
will be adding to. He said he is very encouraged to see this
sort of initiative and direction. He asked if the rock for the
project will be locally sourced.
MS. BAKER answered yes; the rock quarry east of Nome has a
hundred-year life expectancy.
SENATOR BIRCH recalled that the quarry has good rock.
MS. BAKER replied that it is the highest quality rock along the
coast and sought out by many owners and project designers for
breakwater stone.
CHAIR BISHOP concurred with Senator Birch that the Nome rock
quarry has good rock.
3:48:53 PM
CHAIR BISHOP [opened public testimony].
3:49:22 PM
CHARLES LEAN, Vice Chair, Port Commission, City of Nome, Nome,
Alaska, testified in support of HJR 14. He pointed out that
Alaska has 50 percent of the nation's coastline and the Arctic
ocean waters are approximately half of Alaska's waters and
therefore the Arctic waters account for 25 percent of the
country's marine waters and Nome is the central port for the
Arctic waters. Nome's port is not only important as a regional
hub, but also for the nation. Freight passing through the Bering
Strait represents an approximate 40 percent reduction in travel
distance. Freight from Alaska going to the East Coast of the
U.S. would have reduced cost and is therefore important to
Alaska and the region.
3:51:11 PM
RICHARD BENEVILLE, Mayor, City of Nome, Nome, Alaska, testified
in support of HJR 14. He noted that the only two ways to get
from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean by water are the
Bering Strait and the Panama Canal. Nome is 70 miles from the
Bering Strait. Secondly, other Arctic nations are not looking at
the future, they are living in it as we speak. The United States
is lagging behind other Arctic nations in infrastructure and
strategic preparation. He emphasized that the world is coming to
Alaska.
CHAIR BISHOP concurred with Mayor Beneville's comments on other
Arctic nations.
3:54:08 PM
WILLIAM HARRINGTON, representing self, Anchorage, Alaska,
testified in support of HJR 14. He said as an Alaskan, the
buildout of an Arctic port in Nome is exciting to protect and
service the communities in the region. Coupled with the touted
railroad through Canada to the Lower 48, there will be centuries
of benefits for the northern half of the state. Eighty-five
percent of statewide freight passes through the Port of
Anchorage, a port located in an active earthquake zone is a
strategy that places all the eggs in one basket.
He said he encourages a push to open the state's northern
extremities to bring affordable and safe transportation via the
Nome port expansion and cross-boundary rail link. He added that
port expansion at Kotzebue and Bethel should be in the mix to
allow for direct delivery from Seattle to lower freight costs
and the cost of living throughout the state.
3:56:03 PM
CHAIR BISHOP closed public testimony.
REPRESENTATIVE FOSTER highlighted that a recent newspaper
article warned of the dangers from Russian and Chinese
activities in the Arctic. He opined that there is a race for the
Arctic.
3:56:59 PM
SENATOR BIRCH moved to report HJR 14, version 31-LS0593\M from
committee with individual recommendations and attached zero
fiscal note.
3:57:15 PM
CHAIR BISHOP fund no objection and HJR 14 moved from the Senate
Community and Regional Affairs Standing Committee.
3:57:20 PM
At ease.
HJR 9-ELIZABETH PERATROVICH COMMEMORATIVE COIN
3:58:58 PM
CHAIR BISHOP announced the consideration of House Joint
Resolution 9 (HJR 9).
3:59:17 PM
REPRESENTATIVE DELENA JOHNSON, Alaska State Legislature, Juneau,
Alaska, sponsor of HJR 9, provided an overview of the
resolution. She disclosed that the legislation was suggested by
an Alaska 4-H group from Eagle. She detailed that the American
Coin Act was passed in 2018 with a proviso that a Native
American coin be included. A coin commemorating Elizabeth
Peratrovich has been chosen to be the fourth Native American
coin.
She detailed that the Elizabeth Peratrovich coin will have
Sacagawea on the reverse side. She emphasized that there will be
no cost to the state. The U.S. Mint is an enterprise fund of the
U.S. government which means it makes money from the collector
edition runs.
She explained that the resolution asks for an extra $2 million
in coinage to be distributed through the San Francisco Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco, Seattle Branch so that the
Elizabeth Peratrovich coins can be distributed in Alaska.
Typically, collector editions only go to collectors, but the
Alaska 4-H group from Eagle requested the resolution to ask for
an additional $2 million in coins be distributed in Alaska so
that the coin can be used in the state. She emphasized that
Elizabeth Peratrovich is a national figure and having her on the
commemorative coin will make her the [fourth] singular Alaska
Native woman besides Sacagawea on a coin.
4:02:18 PM
MARCY HERMAN, Staff, Representative DeLena Johnson, Alaska State
Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, advised that Elizabeth Peratrovich
would be the fourth singular Alaska Native on a commemorative
coin but the first woman other than Sacagawea.
CHAIR BISHOP asked if the Elizabeth Peratrovich coin design [NA-
2020-01] was selected.
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON answered that she was not certain that a
final design had been chosen.
CHAIR BISHOP commented that he would select Elizabeth
Peratrovich coin design [NA-2020-06].
4:03:30 PM
CHAIR BISHOP opened public testimony.
4:03:39 PM
RICHARD HANSCOM, representing self, Fairbanks, Alaska, testified
in support of HJR 9. He disclosed that he is a member of the
Fairbanks Coin Club. He said the current practice of the U.S.
Mint is to make dollar coins for sale only to collectors. If the
Elizabeth Peratrovich coin is not placed in circulation, the
coin will be just another collectors' coin that is unknown to
the general public.
He explained that the act of placing the Elizabeth Peratrovich
coin into circulation will reaffirm the commitment to the Alaska
Anti-Discrimination law passed by the Territorial Alaska
Legislature in 1945. Circulating the Elizabeth Peratrovich coin
will be a fitting way to honor the work of Elizabeth
Peratrovich. A circulating coin will be a daily reminder to
adults and an educational tool for the children.
CHAIR BISHOP noted that he grew up as a coin buff and he
supports HJR 9.
4:05:01 PM
CHAIR BISHOP closed public testimony.
SENATOR GRAY-JACKSON thanked Representative Johnson for bringing
the resolution forward. She added that she likes Elizabeth
Peratrovich coin design [NA-2020-05].
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON summarized that Elizabeth Peratrovich was
a stellar figure in the state's history. Prior to the Civil
Rights Act of the 1960s, Elizabeth Peratrovich was involved in
the Alaska Anti-Discrimination Act of 1945. Elizabeth
Peratrovich was a recipient of discrimination and she found her
voice and made sure her voice was known in Alaska.
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON said it is fitting that Elizabeth
Peratrovich was chosen to be on the commemorative coin. She
added that she is delighted to carry the legislation forward
from the Interior Alaska 4-H group from Eagle.
4:06:51 PM
SENATOR BIRCH moved to report [CSHJR 9(STA)], work order 31-
LS0573\M, from committee with individual recommendations and
attached zero fiscal note.
4:07:02 PM
CHAIR BISHOP found no objection and CSHJR 9(STA) moved from the
Senate Community and Regional Affairs Standing Committee.
4:07:09 PM
At ease.
4:08:53 PM
CHAIR BISHOP called the committee back to order.
4:09:14 PM
There being no further business to come before the committee,
Chair Bishop adjourned the Community and Regional Affairs
Standing Committee meeting at 4:09 p.m.
