SJR 13-OCS OIL & GAS EXPLORATION/DEVELOPMENT  5:49:30 PM CO-CHAIR COGHILL announced consideration of two versions of SJR 13 under Uniform Rule 42. The two versions were: CSSJR 13(RES) and CSSJR 13(RES) am H. CO-CHAIR MILLETT moved to adopt the CSSJR 13(RES), version 29- LS0471\N. REPRESENTATIVE GRUENBERG objected for discussion purposes. CO-CHAIR COGHILL explained that the amendment on the House side had to do with revenue sharing (on page 3, lines 29-31), which is counter to the resolution. The following language was deleted: Further resolved that Alaska shall receive at least the same share of federal offshore oil and gas sale lease bid, rent and royalty revenues as is received by the Gulf Coast states under the 2006 Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act and subsequent legislation. He explained that this language was deleted, because another resolution was done on that very language. This resolution is talking about offshore leases. REPRESENTATIVE GRUENBERG removed his objection. A roll call vote was taken: Representatives Gruenberg, Talerico, and Millett voted yea; there were no nays. Senators Giessel and Coghill voted yea; there were no nays. Senator Wielechowski was absent. CO-CHAIR COGHILL announced that CSSJR 13(RES), version N, was adopted. 5:51:53 PM There being no further business to come before the committee, Co-Chair Coghill adjourned the meeting at 5:51 p.m.
