  REPRESENTATIVE VEZEY handed out copies of a committee                        
  substitute for a piece of legislation which the Task Force                   
  had voted to sponsor, CSHB 228(STA), stating the bill would                  
  not be passed this year but would be "on the front burner"                   
  at the beginning of next session.  He summarized the main                    
  concerns and changes, including deletion of administrative                   
  evaluation of the cost of doing business with out-of-state                   
  firms and changing Alaska bidder's preference from 5% to 7%,                 
  and altering the Alaskan hire practices section due to                       
  constitutional concerns.
