If the facts and circumstances of a specific disposal suggest to the director that the scope of the review should be expanded, the director will have the authority to do so. It is further the intent of this Committee that the Department of Natural Resources undertake the drafting of regulations or proposed statutory language, whichever the Department deems most appropriate, to create lists of criteria, analogous to the list of criteria at AS 38.05.035(g) for oil and gas disposals, for other disposals governed by CSSB 308(FIN) am should that bill pass. Finally, it is also the Committee's intent that the Department of Natural Resources coordinate its creation of these lists of criteria with the Division of Governmental Coordination to facilitate the outreach and broad involvement of all interested parties in drafting the lists for disposals other than for oil and gas." The Judiciary Committee recommends adoption of the Senate Letter of Intent (page 3853 of the Senate Journal).
