                     TWENTIETH LEGISLATURE - SECOND SESSION                    
                                                                               
Juneau, Alaska                                                                 
                                                                               
                           One Hundred Fifteenth Day                           
                                                                               
                                                                               
Pursuant to adjournment the Senate was called to order by President            
Miller at 11:17 a.m.                                                           
                                                                               
The roll showed twenty members present.                                        
                                                                               
The prayer was offered by the Chaplain, Major Neil Timpson of the              
Salvation Army.  Senator Hoffman moved and asked unanimous                     
consent that the prayer be spread.  Without objection, it was so               
ordered.                                                                       
                                                                               
Lord, help us to keep our priorities in order and                             
really know Whos in charge and that we are                                     
carrying the right stuff with us. And to always                                
know where we are headed. Bless these legislators                              
as they deliberate today on matters that effect our                            
lovely state of Alaska.                         Amen.                          
                                                                               
                                                                               
Senator Donley led the Senate in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Senator Taylor moved and asked unanimous consent that the journal              
for the one hundred fourteenth legislative day be approved as                  
certified by the Secretary.  Without objection, it was so ordered.

Message dated and received May 5 was read, stating the Governor                
signed the following bill and transmitted the engrossed and enrolled

CS FOR SENATE BILL NO. 180(FIN) An Act                                        
relating to state rights-of-way.                                              
                                                                               
			Chapter 26, SLA 1998                                                        
			Effective Date: 8/03/98                                                     
                                                                               
This bill lists 602 routes and trails, declares them to have been              
accepted by public use under the federal RS 2477 law, and requires             
the Department of Natural Resources to record the routes.  The bills           
intent seems to be to secure public access for all Alaskans along              
rights-of-way developed under RS 2477, an 1866 federal law that                
provided, The right of way for the construction of highways over               
public lands, not reserved for public uses, is hereby granted.                 
                                                                               
I signed this bill because of my strong belief in the public access            
principle that inspired it. Access routes are among the States most            
valuable assets, for without access, natural resources could not be            
developed and Alaskas heritage of public lands would be off limits.            
                                                                               
However, I have serious reservations about the course this bill takes.         
It does nothing to assist the State in disputes over potential RS 2477         
rights-of-way crossing federal land, as those disputes can only be             
resolved by suits in federal court under the Quiet Title Act.                  
Strengthening the States case will take more detailed research,                
finishing the certification process, and surveying the routes that prove       
to qualify.  Instead, the bill diverts funds and personnel needed for          
those tasks into recording all 602 routes.  Recordation is appropriate         
as soon as each route is certified and surveyed, but at this point only        
11 routes have reached the certification stage. Premature recordation          
of a route for which the status and location are uncertain does not            
help the State in court.

SB 180                                                                       
In order for the Department of Natural Resources to carry through              
on recording these routes as required under this bill, it is essential         
the fiscal note be funded.  Without funding, DNR will be unable to             
conduct this work.                                                             
                                                                               
Only my strong support for securing all RS 2477 access routes to               
which the State is legally entitled has caused me to put these                 
misgivings aside and sign the bill.

HOUSE CS FOR CS FOR SENATE BILL NO. 76(FIN)                                   
am H An Act relating to results-based government and                           
the state budget; relating to state agency program and

appropriations to a state agency; and relating to state                        
agency performance and other reports.                                          
                                                                              
			Chapter 27, SLA 1998                                                        
			Effective Date: 8/03/98                                                     
                                                                               
I applaud the intent of this bill to move the state toward results-            
based budgeting and look forward to working with the Legislature               
on developing the specifics of how this process will be implemented.

In signing this bill, I note it does not, and cannot conflict with other       
statutes outlining agency program responsibility.  Nor may it                  
contradict the Alaska Constitution regarding the restriction on                
appropriation bills.  Consistent with my action and that of previous           
governors, I will continue to protect the constitutional mandate that          
appropriation bills be confined to designating state appropriations.
