TO: Charlie Brown, Finance Director

Date: March 29, 1991
Re: Resolution Transferring Funds
$2,752 from Professional Services to Machinery and
Equipment
Please prepare a resolution transferring $2,752 from
Professional Service to Machinery and Equipment in the
Kenai Library Budget.
The budget for Professional Services was an approximation.
based on F/Y 1990-91. The new Janitorial Contract was
approved for a lesser sum.
We need to purchase a microform reader/printer to replace one
that was declared not repairable by the vendor.
The amount currently in Machinery and Equipment is $1,700
which was originally budgeted for a laser printer. The
Library purchased a satisfactory printer for much less money
accounting for the unspent funds in this account.
A microform reader/printer can be purchased for $4,200 plus
shipping. The specified reader/printer uses plain paper,
will copy positive or negative film, has image rotation, and
is easy for the public to use.

4. PERSONS PRESENT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD
S. PLANNING
6. NEW BUSINESS
a. Land Required for Public Purpose
Kim Howard, Administrative Assistant, explained that the Planning
and Zoning Commission had reviewed a list of parcels which were
proposed to be sold in an upcoming land sale, at a previous
KENAI PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
Page 2
meeting. At that meeting the Commission had requested that a
five acre tract be withheld from a 77 acre parcel, in Mommsen's
Subdivision for a park.
Since that meeting the City realized they had obtained a parcel
of property, of approximately the same size and location as the
Mommsen's parcel, through foreclosure. The City Administration
brought to the Council's attention that the property shown on the
attached map could be retained rather than the five acre parcel
selected by the Commission. This would allow the 77 acres to be
included in the land sale. Council unanimously voted to pass
Ordinance 1414-91 finding that all the foreclosed properties on
the list were not needed for public purpose.
Administration asked if the Planning and Zoning Commission wished
to retain Tract A, Mommsen's Addition No. 2 for a future park?
MOTION AND VOTE:
Commissioner Graveley made a motion to retain Tract A, Mommsen's
Addition No. 2 for a future park. Commissioner Rehm seconded.
Passed unanimously.
b. Lot 9, Block 2, F.B.O. Subdivision - Request to Purchase
Kim Howard, referred to a memorandum to P & Z, which requested
that the referenced property be made available for sale by
competitive bid. Howard explained that it had taken 2 years for
the F.A.A. to release this property and asked for the
Commission's recommendation to Council on whether the property
should be sold or retained for a public purpose.
Commissioner Murphy asked where the access was to this property?
Howard responded that the access was through an easement on
Lot 3.
MOTION AND VOTE:
Commissioner Bannock moved that Lot 9, Block 2 F.B.O. Subdivision
be sold by competitive bid. Commissioner Scott seconded. Passed
unanimously.
C. Lease Application - Alaska Industrial Development and
Export Authority (AIEDA) - Lot 6 Block 2, Fidalgo
Commercial Center
Kim Howard referred to a memo in regard to the lease application
submitted by AIDEA for the referenced property. The land lease
KENAI PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
Page 3
was terminated by Court Order and the property has been returned
to the possession of the City. The building is owned by AIDEA
and they are requesting to lease the land. Their intention is to
sell the building and later assign the land lease to the buyer.
Commissioner Bannock asked if the City would have any input into
what type of business the building could be used for?
Howard referred to KMC 21.10.030 (5) which states the intended
use must comply with the zoning ordinance and comprehensive plan
of the City.
MOTION AND VOTE:
Commissioner Scott moved approval of Lease application by AIEDA.
Commissioner Murphy seconded. Passed unanimously.
d. Petition to Vacate Ten Foot Utility Easement along
northerly, easterly and westerly boundaries of Tract
A., Baron Park No. 5, within the City of Kenai, Section
33, T6N, R11W.
Kim Howard explained that the vacation would eliminate the
utility easement. Tract A has been divided into a larger parcel
and the existing easement lines might conflict with future
development of this tract. The Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning
Commission had already approved the vacation, and the City
Council had 30 days to veto that decision. Administration was
seeking a recommendation to Council on this matter from the
Planning and Zoning Commission.
MOTION AND VOTE:
Commissioner Rehm moved to recommend to Council, approval of
Petition to Vacate Ten Foot Utility Easement along northerly,
easterly and westerly boundaries of Tract A., Baron Park No. 5,
within the City of Kenai, Section 33, T6N, R11W. Commissioner
Graveley seconded. Passed unanimously.
7. OLD BUSINESS
a. Comp Plan - Economic Trends
Chairman Bryson asked that this portion of the agenda be moved to
a work session at the end of the regular meeting. He also
requested that item 8: Reports be switched with item 9: Persons
Present Not Scheduled.
KENAI PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
Page 4
S. PERSON PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED
Steven Peloza introduced himself to the Commission and explained
that he was looking into the possibility of opening a retail
business in Old Kenai on Lot 39-A, Dolchok Subdivision. He was
considering a small gift shop/art gallery, which would be located
across from the Russian Orthodox Church. Because the business
would be in the TSH zone, he was seeking the Commission's
approval for this development.
Commissioner Murphy asked -if the building was part of the
historical registry?
Peloza answered that the home was built in 1919 and was not part
of the registry.
Commissioner Graveley asked what changes would be made to the
building?
Peloza said he would just be repairing and painting the outside
of the building and possibly some repair to the roof.
Commissioner Graveley asked if there would be adequate parking in
that area?
Peloza said that there was currently a parking shortage in that
area and he expected mostly foot traffic.
Commissioner Graveley asked what kind of signs would identify the
shop?
Peloza said he would install a small wooden sign, possibly on the
front of the building.
After further discussion Commissioner Scott said she agreed with
the proposal in concept but felt that the Commission needed more
time to look at the plans, site, etc. She asked that the
discussion be carried over to the next agenda.
Chairman Bryson asked that the item be included on the March 27th
agenda. So noted.
9. REPORTS
a. City Council
Councilman Smalley reported that the City was seeking funding in
Juneau for several local projects, which included the development
KENAI PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
Page 5
of two new city parks. One site for a new park would be on the
bluff near the Senior Center and the new Congregate Housing
Facility.
A work session had been held with Carr's representatives, the
Council, City Administrators and the Mayor to discuss possible
uses for the Carr's mall, after construction of the new Carr's
Center is completed. The Council would be interested in input
from the public concerning uses for the old mall.
--b. Borough Planning
Chairman Bryson reported that the Assembly had overruled the
Planning Commission's approval of the DEC permit to relocate the
waste from the Sterling Tesoro to the Borough landfill.
The proposed K-Beach Air Quality disposal soil treatment facility
is seeking a permit from DEC before they are allowed to operate.
KPB Planning Commission passed the concept of this facility on
the consent agenda.
C. City Administration
Loretta Harvey, Planning and Zoning Secretary reported that the
Comprehensive Plan was near completion and that the land use
section would possibly be ready for review at the next meeting.

considering the remodeling of the present courthouse or building
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MARCH 20, 1991
PAGE 4
a new building.. Over the years he has discussed this topic with
Chris Benedicktsson, Mr. Snowden, and others about building a new
courthouse. Mayor Williams discussed with Administration the
City of Kenai issuing revenue bonds. Mayor Williams referred to
memorandums added to the Agenda from Kim Howard and Attorney
Graves regarding land exchanges due to a request for information
from Attorney Jeff Jefferson. Mr. Jefferson is interested in
exchanging Lot 3, Block 4, Fidalgo Commercial Center (which he
owns) for Lot 6, Block 4, Fidalgo Commercial Center (which the
City owns). Mayor Williams stated that this exchange would be
advantageous to the City and Lot 3 could be used for the
development of the new courthouse.
Mayor Williams added that he and Mr. Benedicktsson discussed
bringing forth a resolution several weeks ago. Mayor Williams
has discussed the proposal with Representative Navarre. Rep.
Navarre has discussed the proposal with Governor Hickel in regard
to capital projects. Finance Director Brown has prepared bond
pay outs. Williams stated that there has been lots of background
going on about this under cover. Williams stated that the
judicial system.is very definitely moving toward this project.
They are interested in duplicating the new courthouse in Palmer.
There would be four courtrooms and a grand jury room. Williams
requested the Council's support.
Councilman Smalley referred to the word "inadequate" used in the
resolution to describe the present courthouse. Smalley stated
that the present courthouse was designed poorly and allowed for
lots of unusable square footage. Smalley asked how the present
building would be used. Williams stated that the Legislative
Office took a survey to see how much office space is rented by
the State for other agencies, such as the Recorder's Office, etc.
The State would probably remodel the present courthouse and use
the space for other agency offices.
Councilman Smalley stated that he is concerned that might be
taking business away from private enterprise. Mayor Williams
stated that the State rents on a yearly basis. If the budget
does not allow for rental costs, sometimes leases do not go
through. There are no guarantees. Further, the State is now
trying to consolidate the budget. He has looked at offices now
being rented by the State and does not believe that using the
present courthouse for office space will make that big of a dent
on the overall market.

Councilwoman Swarner stated that she did not think the Mayor kept
the Council informed of this proposal. She was shocked when she
read the newspaper article (in the Peninsula Clarion, March 19,
1991) .
Mayor Williams stated that the three lots he proposes purchasing
are owned by BROAC, Inc. (owners of two lots) and Jeff Jefferson
(owner of one lot). Williams has spoken with one of the partners
of BROAC, Inc. That individual assured Williams that he has no
qualms to sell to the City.
Councilwoman Swarner asked if there is other City land suitable
for this project. Mayor Williams stated that if for some reason
this property would no longer be available between now and the
time of an agreement, he will come back to Council to find
another suitable place. Williams stated further that he is not
sure what the price of the property will be. Williams suggested
that market value is now at $3.25 per sq.ft. or $132,000 for two
lots. Williams had no information as to the cost of the land
exchange. Williams stated that the total cost for the properties
should be less than $180,000. Swarner asked what funds would be
used to purchase the properties. Answer was general funds.
Williams was asked if the City has sold revenue bonds before.
Answer was no.
City Manager Brighton stated that he believes that the Mayor is
requesting the passage of this resolution in order that the State
will see that the City is serious about this situation and in
order that necessary stages of negotiation can begin. This
resolution is only a beginning. The resolution states "this
resolution is subject to land availability, the appropriation of
monies for land acquisition, the sale of revenue bonds pursuant
to the City Charter and a lease program with the State..."
Council would have the right to stop the whole matter. If the
money is not appropriated to buy the land, the project ends.
Mayor Williams added that they are at a point that something has
to happen officially before the project can go forward. Williams
is asking the Council to get started.
Councilman Smalley stated he believes it a worthy effort and that
it would benefit the City. Smalley agrees with Councilwoman
Swarner that more information should have been given to Council
prior to the newspaper article. Mayor Williams stated that he
has had discussions with people over two years. He cannot report
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MARCH 20, 1991
PAGE 6
every conversation. Smalley stated that this project is more
than an everyday conversation. Williams stated that he did not
know until lately whether it was a viable project.
Finance Director Brown stated that in order to sell bonds without
going to a vote of the people, you have to have a lease with the
State that says they will pay rent. That is subject to annual
appropriation from the State budget. If the legislature does not
make the appropriation, the City is not obligated to make the
payments. Even if the City would want to make the payments, the
City may be barred from doing so because it did not go to a vote
of the people. The bondholders buy the bonds with the
understanding that they are at risk. Williams stated the
Governor is encouraging greater community participation.
Councilman Walker asked what assurances the City has that the
cost of the properties and putting water and sewer to the
properties will be paid back to the City. Mayor Williams stated
that those costs will not be paid back to the City. Walker
stated that the cost could be $300,000-400,000.
COUNCIL WENT OFF RECORD FOR A FEW MINUTES.
BACK ON RECORD.
Councilman Walker asked again is the City going to have a return
on their part of the investment and if so, in what way. Williams
answered no, the City will not get its money back on those costs.
However, the lots were sold in 1983. The principals have been
making payments. If the City buys the property back at a cash
offer, it may pay less than what the principals have paid over
the years.
Finance Director Brown stated that the City would own the
building. At the Palmer Courthouse, the State pays rent which is
put toward the debt services. The State also pays $10,000 per
month for maintenance (janitorial services, overhead,
administrative costs, etc.) The City would receive payments
above and beyond the debt. Williams added that it is working out
quite well in Palmer. The City could be the owner of the
building in ten years for $180,000.
Councilman Smalley asked if additional manpower would be required
to handle the maintenance, cleaning, etc. of the building or
would it be contracted out. Public Works Director Kornelis
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MARCH 20, 1991
PAGE 7
stated that with the Congregate Housing Project, the Kenai
Bicentennial building, and a new courthouse building, additional
manpower would be required.
Councilman Smalley asked if the dialogue now is a basis for
promoting discussion with the State and City. Answer was yes.
Smalley asked if anything is set in concrete. Answer was no.
Williams stated it is the first step in a long series of steps
before this proposal can be accomplished.

City Manager Brighton stated that it is important to note how
much confusion will be remedied by this agreement. Monetarily it
is a standoff. This agreement is good for the City.
Public Works Director Kornelis added that the agreement will take
a big burden off the City as the City has no way to fix lights.
The City has hired a contractor to work on lights. The agreement
will remove all meters from the lights with the exception of
those on the lift stations. There is a savings to both the City
and HEA. The City would pay only one $11.00 customer charge.
With this agreement, the City will pay approximately $55,680 per
month for about 300 lights. The City has been paying
approximately $55,486 per month for 43 lights. With the
agreement, the City will not be paying a contractor for street
light repairs.
Councilman Walker asked Mr. Rainey (who was in the audience) why
the City does not get a discount for having that many lights.
Mr. Rainey stated that the City is receiving a $10,000 discount
per year, plus the City no longer has to pay maintenance on
lights. The City's savings will be approximately $25,000 per
year. Cost per light is the same for eight lights or 300 lights.
There is a bulk savings to the City because a customer charge for
every light bill, plus a $24.00 meter charge. It costs HEA more
for the maintenance of a street light than the cost of the energy
to the light.

was very interesting and a lot of information was learned and
gathered. Thanked the Council for allowing her to attend and
participate.
Finance Director
The budget is completed. A copy of the first draft will be
included with the next packet for Council's review. Review to
finalization should take from one month to six weeks.
I-6. Public Works Director
a. The plans and specifications for the chlorination
project at the Sewer Treatment Plant are available for review.
The bidding date is set for May 15, 1991. A resolution will be
brought to Council for award.
b. Information Item 12 in the packet reviews progress of
the "Kenai River Mouth Viewing Area." A grant application had
been submitted last year and the City was placed on the recipient

list. However,the State did not have the anticipated funding
from the federal government. The grant application was
resubmitted this year and the City has been told that the grant
will be awarded to us in the amount of $88,000.
c. Councilman Smalley asked if the City will be tumbling
back snow into the ditches. Kornelis stated that the crew is
short-handed now, but they will be pushing the berms back.
I-7. Airport Manager
Airport Manager Ernst reported that on February 28, 1991 the
airport had its certification. There were three discrepancies.
One is that some of the trees in the cemetery are within the
transitional zone for the airport. The trees will either have to
be topped or cut down.
Councilwoman Swarner stated that she was upset that the bulk rate -
stamp on the Float Plane brochure included in the packet had a
Soldotna permit number. Ernst stated that the mailing costs were
part of the contract with the Eriksen Group and that they were
able to achieve a cheaper price with their bulk rate permit.
ITEM J: DISCUSSION
J-1. Citizens
Father Targonsky:
a. Asked what progress has been made in regard to the re-
publishing of "The Native, Russian and American Experiences of
the Kenai Area of Alaska." Clerk Freas answered that she had
contacted a few people involved with the original project. She
has heard from two of the persons contacted. One stated that he
did not believe that there was a copyright on the publication.
The original publication was completed with public funds and so
could not be sold. Clerk Freas is awaiting response from another
contact.
b. Requested that the electric pole situated in front of
the church placed on the other side of the road so that the
setting would be more historically accurate. He suggested that
the pole be placed on the other side of the road and connecting
wiring be placed under the road. The church would give
permission for them to cross its property to do this. Mr.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MARCH 20, 1991
PAGE 17
Rainey, HEA, will discuss this request with Father Targonsky.
Mr. Rainey added that he will bring back information to Council
at their next meeting in regard to options that may be available.
C. Stated that he was opposed to the allowance of the
proposed art gallery to be placed in the building across from the
church. He believes that is it in the conservation district and
not in a commercial zone. He believes it would be very
distractive to the church setting. Councilman Smalley stated
that the Planning & Zoning Commission will be reviewing the
request. The Historical Zone is fairly open. Targonsky believes
it to be in the Conservation Zone. City Manager Brighton asked
if the junk cars had been removed from the parsonage yard.
Targonsky stated that his son is repairing one of the cars and
will be removing it when it is running. The other car has been
removed.
Ron Rainey - Asked if the City can set up a Local Improvement
District in order to have bank erosion stabilization done in his
neighborhood. Public Works Director Kornelis stated that it is
preferable for the property owners to petition for the LID and
then approach the City.
J-2. Council
Walker - Stated that their seems to be money to spend on parks,
courthouses, etc., but none for servicing roads. Walker finds
this totally unacceptable. Sometimes it takes two days before
streets are plowed. The new budget should upgrade the funding
for road service, additional manpower, equipment - whatever is
needed. If the road services are not upgraded, then they are not
being effective for the citizens. There needs to be action taken
on roads.
Swarner - Asked Councilman Measles for update on the ice rink
committee. Measles stated that they are working slowly. They
are not recommending anything yet. Cost would be at least $2.5
million. They are considering an Olympic -sized rink.
Swarner requested more cost information brought forward with
resolutions such as Resolution No. 91-8 (courthouse). Williams
stated that cost information is difficult to give due to not
having a land appraisal yet. It will be some time before any
funds will be spent.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MARCH 20, 1991
PAGE 1S
Swarner stated that there are sales tax delinquencies in Kenai.
Would like the Borough to be encouraged to collect the delinquent
sales tax from those businesses. Finance Director Brown stated
that he attended a meeting with all the City Managers, the
Borough Mayor and Borough Attorney. They discussed the Borough's
collection techniques. He receives a confidential monthly report
from the Borough Attorney of action being taken. Efforts are
being made. The report is available for Council to review in his
office if they so request.
Monfor - Will not be at the April 3, 1991 meeting. Also asked
for update on the customs office proposal. City Manager Brighton
stated that due to changes in the federal law, the office was no
longer needed for Seward and Homer. The proposal died.
Asked Kornelis for more information regarding the bird walk.
Kornelis stated that a grant was set up. The Chamber was to
provide labor and money ($8,000). The City provided the
materials for it. The piling has been placed. The next step is
construction. The railroad ties will be placed for the retaining
wall. Chamber is to donate the labor to build the wooden
structures. The prisoners were going to help, but policy has
changed and now they will not be available. The City crews may
be able to help or if money is available, they will hire people
to do the labor.
Monfor stated that it has taken eight years to get this far on
the project. Kornelis stated is should be completed this year.
Ownership was needed in order for the grant to be awarded. That
slowed the process.
Measles - No report.
Smalley - No report.
Williams - Will be meeting with Mark Higgins regarding the Cold
Water Recovery School. There are letters included in the packet
to and from Brad Gilman with additional information.
The Borough is looking at all its taxes and working hard to
collect. The Borough is planning to assess the airport building
on its value and charge leaseholders personal property taxes for
equipment that the City owns.
Councilman Smalley stated that the Kenai Elementary School will
take $1.5 million to renovate the building. Williams stated that
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MARCH 20, 1991
PAGE 19
a vote of the people will be needed to open the building. The
Assembly will have to sell a bond to open the school. It will be
a year from this fall before it is opened.
Williams referred the Council to an AML Legislative Action Alert
letter regarding a statewide teleconference to discuss funding
for municipal assistance, revenue sharing, school debt and senior
citizen programs. Councilwoman Swarner was encouraged to attend.

Kenai, Alaska 99611
Dear Mayor Williams and Members of Council:
The Economic Development Administration grant outlined terms concerning the
management and operation of the Bicentennial Visitors & Cultural Center.
Our organization tentatively agreed to perform such duties in the "Memorandum
of Agreement" with the City of Kenai, dated October 20, 1989.
We would like to meet with members of Council and City administration to review -
the proposed budget for opening and operation of the facility from January 1, 1992
through June 30, 1992 and FY 1992-1993.
The operating and maintenance costs can only be estimated at this time. We also
wish to discuss the City's participation concerning such items as utilities,
building 0&M, janitorial, et al.
Please advise our office as to a date that would be agreeable for us to review
the opening and operation and maintenance of the new Bicentennial Visitors &
Cultural Center.
RFW:sc

Robert F. Williams, President

Interest rates have fallen nearly all quarter. Look at Exhibit II.
The six-month treasury bill discount started out at 6.48 and is now
5.82. This represents a decrease in yield of 71 basis points (71% of
one percentage point) during the 3-month period.
�-s
Of course, the few investments that were made this quarter reflect
these decreasing yields. I think most of the damage is done. Judging
from what I read, it wouldn't surprise me if rates still go lower for
a couple more months. But, eventually, in the next several months, I
expect rates to start moving back up. This is why the two fixed
securities that were purchased were only 6-month maturities.
Unfortunately, the big $11,000,000 block matures in one month, and I'd
imagine that rates will still be pretty low at that time.
Because of this expectation that rates will be moving upward soon,
maturities are being shortened. At the start of the quarter, the
average days maturity was 326 days; now it is 267 days.
Exhibit I shows the current status of the City's portfolio. The
average annual yield of the current portfolio is 8.381% on $27,212,660
invested. At the end of last quarter, the City's average annual yield
was 8.677% on $26,519,019 invested.
As I do each quarter, I will compare the City's return on investment
with specific benchmarks:
Average City yield, 3-29-91 8.38
12-week average yield, 3-mo. T-Bills 6.24
12-week average yield, 6-mo. T-Bills 6.38
12-week average yield, 12-mo. T-Bills 6.57
State Investment Pools, January, 1991:
Colorado 6.67
Pennsylvania 7.25
Massachusetts 7.43
We still show a significant yield advantage. But, after April 30,
we'll be right in the pack with the rest of them.

Subject: Permission to use City Land
Lot 20, Section 14, T5N, R11W, S.M.
In your letter dated March 6,'1991, you asked permission to again
use the referenced City -owned lands for the operation of a SONAR
counter. The City of Kenai has granted the needed permission the
last five summers in order for the Alaska Dept. of Fish and Game to
stage this worthwhile research project. This year, however, the
City must be more cautious in allowing the use of our critical
wetlands along the Kenai River.
I am sure you are aware of the newest federal policies concerning
wetlands and the increasing environmental problems associated with
the use of the Kenai River. The City has been met with great
resistance in the recent past in our efforts to secure the
necessary permits to construct a much needed boat launching
facility just downstream from the SONAR site. Many of the permit
reviewing agencies (including the Alaska Dept. of Fish and Game)
withdrew support for our project due to concern for the wetlands
habitat similar to that of the SONAR site.
In light of this, the City must have documentation that the Dept.
of Fish and Game has either obtained all required approvals for use
of the site, or that no approvals are required. Some of the
approvals that may be necessary and agencies to contact are:
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Alaska State Park System
Dept. of Natural Resources
Dept. of Environmental Conservation
Alaska Coastal Management Program Consistency Review
Dept. of Fish and Game
Page 2
March 21, 1991
AK Dept. of Fish and Game
Also, enclosed is a City of Kenai Conditional Use Permit
Application which should be completed and returned as soon as
possible in order that we may schedule a public hearing. This
Conditional Use Permit will be necessary as the site is within the
rural residential zone of the City.
We hope you understand the concern we have that all activity within
this sensitive area is properly conducted. Also, we must be
cognizant of the potential liability involved regarding unpermitted
activity.
As soon as all information is received and approved, we may then
grant permission to utilize the site. Thank you for your
cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
Willi J. 'ghton

For the past five summers, the city of Kenai has granted permission to the Alaska
Department of Fish & Game to use certain city -owned lands for the purpose of operating
a SONAR counter. I would like to ask permission again to use this same property in
continuing this research project for the dates May 1 through August 30, 1991. The land
previously authorized for this use is described as Lot 20, Section 14, TSN, R11W, S.M.
Prior to May 1, I can be contacted at the above address. Thank you for your assistance
in this matter. If you have any questions, please call me at 267-2383.

RE3,STATUS REPORT
Randy, r
A number of things have been going on so I felt this would be the best time to give you art
\,update on the airport promotion project.
Ptess releases and/or stories have been sent to 12 publications. These are primarily magazine
format publications which work several months ahead of schedule. Our releases and stories were
sent to coincide with an April or May publication date: -\The following Is a breakdown of the
publications contacted and the estimated/promised date you can expect to see the story in print.
Copies of each publication will be sent tome and copies of the stories sent on to you.
i
Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association Magazine - They have acknowledged receiving the story and
say their editors are considering it. We will be notifed at the end of March or first part of April whether
they will use the story. ,
Western Flyer Magazine - The information was sent to Cliff Cernick, the Alaska writer for the
magazine. He liked it and is working on a story. He may be calling you or me for more information.
The story will be in the April Issue which Is put out at the end of April and usually doesn't get to
Alaska until the first part of May \
;-'Alaska Joumal of Commerce . This publication was sent the business 'leasing' story and it will be
used as a submitted manuscript. That means it may come out as an article submitted by me and
carrying my byline. I: expect it to be in the March 25th or April 1st issue. There Is a good chance that
they will use the float plane story as well, later In the season.
Alaska Business Monthly - The 'leasing' story will be a news brief in the May issue of the magazine.
Water Flying Quarterly - The float plane story was sent to John Pratt, the Alaska writer for this
magazine. I have left messages to try and determine that he got the information and whether the
magazine will use it, however, as of this writing, he has not gotten back with me.

Alaska Magazine- They have. said they did receive the float plane story and are interested in using it
In the Ketchikan toBarrowsection. However, they won't know. until' April 1 st, whether or not they can
use It.,
Alaska Air Carriers' Association Newsletter- April Is this group's next quarterly issue and the story will
be used then.
Alaska Aviation Safety Foundation Newsletter - The story will be in this group's quarterly newsletter
due out at lthe end of March.
Alaska Travel News - The float plane story should be in the April Issue which is distributed in 72
i different locations.
Greater Anchorage Tomorrow - This Is the newsletter for the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce sent
to all business members. The 'leasing"story was sent to them and will be in the April issue.
Alaska ighway News - They will use the float plane story in the May or June issue or both. They
won't know for a few weeks.
The New Alaska Outdoors Magazine - This Is a brand new magazine created when new owners took
�• over'Alaska Outdoors Magazine.' Their first Issue comes out in June and the float plane story
should. be In that Issue.
Alaska Airlines Magazine - I spoke with the editor today and she was interested in the story. I will mail
� a pre -written story, photos and the map to her this week and she will let me know if they are going to
use it. ,• ' ; ,
On other subjects, The first 5500 of the brochures were labeled the weekend of March 16th &
17th. However, we seem to have come up short about 2000 brochures. At first the printer said he
sent all;the brochures (about 8200) in three boxes on the 15th of March and we did pick up three
boxes on the 15th. However, there were only 5500 brochures.
As -of Ihis morning, he discovered that the other brochures were never printed (although no
one told him), because they ran short on paper. So he will have to print more. The only drawback is
that he can't get to it until sometime the week of the 25th. There are two choices: mail those that
are already labeled now and mail the rest after the second printing, or wait until they are all done. My
advice is to wait and send them all out at the same time. The float plane basin Isn't even useable
until the middle of May so there is no real hurry. I also think it's advisable to get the information to
everyone In the flying community all at once.
Please let me know what you would like to do about the mailing as soon as you get this
update. I will keep you informed about our dealings with the printer: I will also let you know when we
start mailing the stories and releases to the regular daily and weekly media.

Mayor John Williams
and Kenai City Council
City of Kenai

Kenai, Alaska 99611
Dear Mayor Williams and City Council:
The Alaska Municipal League is seeking nominations for participants in the Alaska
Municipal Pollution Prevention Roundtable, a project made possible under a
contract with the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation's Pollution
Prevention Program. Thirty roundtable members will be selected from those that
indicate an interest.
As you know, handling waste in Alaska is different than handling waste in the
Lower 48. Transportation and the economies of scale make Alaska's problems
unique. The basic purpose of the roundtable is to offer practical, applicable
training for Alaska's local government officials in pollution prevention
techniques and to serve as a forum for the exchange of information about
pollution prevention methods that work in Alaska. The mission and scope of
activity of the roundtable may evolve further, however, depending on the
interests of the participants.
The first meeting of the group will be May 1-2, 1991, in Juneau. A second
meeting will be scheduled in mid -June in Fairbanks. If DEC receives funding to
continue the program, four additional meetings will be scheduled in Anchorage,
Fairbanks, and Juneau during FY 92.
Each roundtable meeting will feature presentations by pollution prevention
experts from the private sector as well as from the public sector on topics that
will be informative and stimulate debate. Possible topics include reducing the
waste stream by managing your office differently, buying recycled goods, setting
up recycling programs, developing public support for recycling and recyclables,
and disposing of waste in the least damaging way. Alaska local government
officials will be asked to share information on approaches used in their
municipalities -- both those that have worked and those that have not.
For your information, I have included a tentative agenda for the first meeting.
You will note that Todd Peterson, Manager of Recycling and Planning Programs for
R.W. Beck, will address the roundtable about pollution prevention possibilities.
R.W. Beck and Associates is a consulting engineering firm with offices in 13
cities including Anchorage and Seattle. The firm has nearly 20 years of
experience in helping local governments with waste management, reduction, and
control, including several projects in Alaska.
Member of the National League of Cities and the National Association of Counties

Page 2
Bill Ross, President of Ross & Associates, is also scheduled to address the
roundtable. Ross, an environmental consultant from Seattle, is a former
commissioner of the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, and an
excellent speaker. Ross has considerable experience in pollution prevention,
particularly in Alaska and the Northwest.
I encourage you or one of your staff to apply to participate in this valuable
roundtable. The Alaska Municipal Pollution Prevention Roundtable is a perfect
chance to learn more about a pressing issue that all local governments will need
to confront in the future. To take advantage of the opportunity, please fill out
the registration form enclosed and return it to the Alaska Municipal League
immediately. There is no charge for participating in the roundtable.
Participants' transportation and lodging are the responsibility of the
municipality or sponsoring organization.
I have tried to send this letter to people who are likely to have an interest in
participating in the Alaska Municipal Pollution Prevention Roundtable, however
it is likely that I may have missed some important contact. If you know of
someone who should be invited to apply to participate on this roundtable, please
forward a copy of this letter and the application form. Thank you, I appreciate
your help.

Re: Budget Report
The legislature is beyond the half -way point, and has yet to pass a
bill; however, the Alaska House of Representatives has passed their
version of the operating budget and sent it onto the Senate for
consideration.
Part of the House's strategy involved a desire to get the operating
budget to the Governor's desk so that he has to act on it prior to the
legislature's adjournment. That way, the legislature will be in a
better position to override his (anticipated) vetoes.
Last week, the legislature focused much of their activities on revenue
forecasts and budget talks. The attached budget overview has been
designed to keep you informed on the legislature's
revenue/budgetary activities.
As you can see, anticipated revenues are now lower than previously
expected and subsequent talks involving the capital budget has
shrunk accordingly.
I hope this information is useful. Should you have any questions or
need additional information, please do not hesitate to call.

OVERVIEW
The House moved closer to action on the operating budget this
week, the Senate approved the so called fast track supplemental (SB-
41), and the administration and legislative finance leaders reached
informal agreement on the oil revenue figures they intend to use in FY
92 budget planning.
REVENUE
Petroleum Revenue Outlook
On March 13, Senate Finance heard views on the petroleum
revenue outlook from the Dept. of Revenue (DOR), the consulting firm
of Cambridge Energy Research Associates, and the Legislative Finance
Division. Handouts provided by the DOR and Cambridge witnesses
indicate DOR expects an average FY 92 price for Alaska North Slope
(ANS) crude of $16.11/bbl, and the Cambridge consultants forecasting
a price of about $19.00/bbl barrel. These compare with an average of
about $20.00/bbl expected in both forecasts for the current fiscal year,
FY 91. DOR projects the FY 91 surplus, the result of war -boosted oil
prices, at $200 million (low scenario) to $630 million (high scenario).
Dr. Charles Logsdon, DOR petroleum economist, presented the
DOR forecast. DOR expects prices to decrease rather sharply over the
next two months, with the mid -case forecast figure for ANS crude in
the lower 48 averaging $14.75/bbl for the remainder of this fiscal
year, then rising to $16.11 /bbl in FY 92. Over the longer term prices
are expected to firm; the comparable mid -case FY 95 forecast price is
$20.89/bbl. Both mid -case and low -case scenarios show ANS oil
production (including gas liquids) rising to 1.81 MMbbl/day in FY 92,
then declining at an average rate of about two percent annually
through FY 95. The high -case production scenario shows a slower
decline rate.
Alaska's general fund unrestricted revenue is expected to be in the
$2.63 to $3.06 billion range in FY 91, compared with FY 90 revenue of
$2.51 billion. FY 92 revenue is projected within a much wider range:
$1.46 billion in the low scenario, $2.12 billion in the mid -case, to
$2.72 billion in the high scenario.
Kevin Lindemer, associate director, oil markets, and Bob Esser,
senior consultant presented the Cambridge report. Lindemer expects
the Saudis to remain firmly in control of oil markets, using floating
storage to cushion shocks. They see the Kingdom as willing in the
near term to reduce production to 7.2-7.6 MMbbl/day but no further.
When Kuwaiti and Iraqi production returns to the market, these levels
could drop to 6.5-7.0 MMbbl/day. If prices cannot be stabilized at
these production levels, then prices will fall.
Compared with DOR, Cambridge Energy Research expects higher
prices for ANS crude in FY 92. Under the Cambridge view, the average
expected Valdez price for the FY 92 period is about $17.50/bbl. The
equivalent estimate in the DOR forecasters' mid -case is $14.57/bbl (an
ANS lower 48 price of $16.11/bbl, minus tanker charges of $1.54/bbl).
The Cambridge forecast handout implies about $400 million more
general fund revenue in FY 92 than the DOR forecast.
Staff members from the Legislative Finance Division gave general
comments on the petroleum revenue outlook, but did not present
their own forecast.
Informal Consensus on Oil Revenue
House and Senate finance leaders and OMB director Stastny
reportedly agreed to budget for FY 92 assuming average south-48
North Slope crude oil prices of $20.57/bbl in FY 91 ($14.65/bbl for
the rest of the fiscal year), and $16.50/bbl in FY 92. That indicates FY
91 mid -case revenue of $2.826 billion, implying a fiscal year ending
balance of about $420 million carried forward to FY 92.
Based on a chart handed out by DOR economist Charles Logsdon,
the FY 92 oil price implies total FY 92 unrestricted general fund
revenue of about $2.190 million, other things such as production
levels equal. This is slightly higher than the $2.124 billion
recommended by the Dept. of Revenue, but $330 million less than the
figure implied in the range presented by the Cambridge forecasters.
Big Tax Settlement Pending
On March 12, at a Senate Finance subcommittee meeting on the
Dept. of Revenue's budget, Revenue Deputy Commissioner Bill
Floerchinger, in response to questions from Sen. Cotten, said a "partial
settlement of a $500 million [oil tax] case is in the works."
According to Floerchinger, oil and gas tax auditors are
concentrating on resolving the older "back tax" cases, without falling
behind on new cases. Most of the major issues are now moving
through the system. The "statute of limitations case," also known as
the "Exxon case," is in Superior Court. The other important cases
likely to set precedents are still in the administrative process. Tax
cases covering about $300 million are now ready for formal hearing.
2
Administration and legislative forecasts this year have not include
funds from any settlements of oil tax or royalty cases. A constitutional
amendment adopted in November 1990 provides that money from
settlement of back taxes and royalties goes into the Budget Reserve
Fund. Money from the fund can be appropriated to maintain spending
at the level established in the prior year's budget. Any other
appropriation from the fund requires a special three -fourths majority
in both legislative houses. .
SUPPLEMENTALS
Senate and House Pass SB -41, Fast Track Supplemental
On March 18, the Senate adopted its version of the first of the two
supplemental appropriations bills to cover unfunded current year
operating costs of state government. The administration had
proposed the two bills last month. According to OMB officials, the
administration is satisfied with the Senate's $66 million version of the
first bill despite differences from the Governor's original proposal, SB-
134. On Wednesday, however, House Finance heard the bill and
proposed further changes.
Much of the additional funding proposed in the Governor's February
proposal and in SB-41 restores funds vetoed by Gov. Cowper after the
1990 legislative session, or replenishes accounts used to temporarily
fund vetoed items; for example, the bill covers vetoed educational
formula funds, general relief funds, social services block grants
(Anchorage and Fairbanks), and funding for local maintenance of class
3 roads. Many other items cover increases in fuel costs associated
with the Persian Gulf war (including $2 million to supplement last
year's power cost equalization appropriation), and higher health and
social service program costs due to higher case or service loads.
The Senate bill provides $20.1 million to cover additional FY 91
litigation costs -- $7.6 million for the Exxon Valdez case, $8 million
for oil and gas royalty litigation, $4 million for other oil and gas
litigation, and $500,000 for legal fees in the mental health lands case.
The Division of Tourism would get an additional $2 million for
advertising.
Senator Kerttula discussed the bill briefly with the majority caucus
members on March 15: the bill passed the Senate March 18, with 15
yeas, 1 nay (Sen. Halford), and 4 not voting. An amendment to
increase fuel cost assistance to the Kenai Peninsula College was
proposed and later withdrawn by Sen Fischer. The bill lingered for a
day on reconsideration by Sen. Fisher, but moved to the House on
March 19.

House Action on the Fast Track Supplemental
House Finance took up the Senate's supplemental bill on March 20,
adopting four proposed amendments, and moving the bill to Rules for
placement on the House calendar on Friday. The amendments
adopted by House Finance: .
• Reduce the Dept. of Law's supplemental funding for the Exxon
Valdez case from $7.6 million to $4.1 million, and change the
funding source from the general fund to the Oil and Hazardous
Substances Release Response (470) Fund.
• Delete the $500,000 for Dept. of Law funding of the mental health
lands case.
• Change the lapse date on the additional daycare assistance funding
from June 30, 1991 to June 30, 1992.
• provide $438,000 to the Dept. of Transportation to cover the costs
of repairing damage caused by the Healy Canyon slide.
Members indicated that the reductions to the Dept. of Law
appropriations for the Exxon and mental health lands cases could be
restored later in the end -of -session supplemental if justification was
provided.
Rep. Jacko offered and later withdrew an amendment to increase
funding for single/dual site school districts by about $1 million. Rep
Navarre suggested that the problem should be dealt with in the
context of other education bills. Rep Kay Brown stated her support for
an additional $1 million for the tourism advertising campaign, but said
she recognized that the votes were not there for such a proposal now.
She hoped that members would later consider bringing the program
back to where it was before the Cowper vetoes.
House Finance reported the bill with 8 members recommending
"do pass," and 2 noting "no recommendation."
The House debated SB 41 on March 22. An amendment was
proposed by Rep. Martin to shift permanent fund hold harmless
funding, taking the $2 million from the general fund rather than the
dividend fund. Taking the money from the dividend fund was was
alleged to cost each dividend recipient $2. The amendment was
defeated on a mostly party line vote, 14 to 22.
HCSCSSSSB 41, for $64.5 million in general funds passed the
House 31-7. Reconsideration is likely on Monday, March 25.

FY 92 BUDGET
House Spending Plan Takes Shape
The FY 92 spending plan that is taking shape in the House implies
a deficit at the end of FY .92 (a negative carry forward to FY 93) of
about $100 million. The plan assumes average oil prices of $20.57 and
$16.50/bbl in FY 91 and 92, respectively. The table below shows the
revenue picture implicit in these oil price assumptions:
FY 92 GF Revenue Under House Assumptions
(millions)
Carryover from FY 91 $423
Revenue in FY 92 2180
Adjustments 54
Revenue available for FY 92 $2657
On the expenditure side the spreadsheets being used by members
and staff imply general fund spending of about $2,765 million:
FY 92 Expenditures Under House Plans
(millions)
Agency Operations
$1,181
Formula Programs
1,117

129
Special Oil (470) Fund
28
Loans
20
New Legislation
10
Capital
200
Total FY 92 Appropriations
$2, 765
With final operating close-outs scheduled for March 23, the House's
agency operations figure isn't likely to change significantly. That leaves
the formula programs, loans, capital, and revenue assumptions as the
major expenditure items available for adjustment.
House Budget Close -Outs
The House Majority Caucus met on March 19, and the Finance
Committee met on March 22 and 21 to discuss and hear testimony on
the proposed agency spending plans being circulated by the House
Finance Subcommittees. Minority members -- and some in the House
majority -- complained that not enough attention was being paid to
0
cutting the agencies' budgets, but there appeared to be little support
for a major change in the direction set in the draft spreadsheets.
Agency personnel were generally satisfied with their budgets as they
were taking shape in the House proposals.
Allocations and major actions on formula programs will be
summarized next week, after final committee action on March 23.
Floor action is scheduled for Tuesday, March 26, with reconsideration
likely on March 27.
Governor's Budget Amendments Received
The Governor's office forwarded the administrations proposed
budget amendments to the legislature on March 11, and submitted
further suggested changes on March 21. Most of the revisions were
technical in nature -- for example, to identify how earlier cuts would
be allocated -- or were to restore items already restored in House
Finance subcommittee action. As Chief of Staff Max Hodel noted in his
March 11 letter, "some of the budget reductions proposed in
January...may have been too deep, too soon." In several agencies,
program receipts were allowed as general fund offsets.
The March 11 package added $35.8 million in general fund
spending, of which $30 million was to come from the mental health
trust account. The amount of the March 21 package was not
immediately available, but it appeared to be considerably less that the
earlier additions. Notable in the changes proposed on March 21 were
items restoring $4.2 million in program receipts to the Alaska Marine
Highway System "to maintain current service levels." Also included was
a technical amendment from the Dept of Public Safety, Division of
Motor Vehicles, indicating the agency's intention to meet its budget
reduction targets by eliminating the "mandatory insurance" program
under which driver suspensions were processed as soon as it was
apparent that the driver had not shown insurance coverage.
SPECIAL FUNDS
Alaska Science and Technology Fund
Two bills have been introduced that would divert fund from the
Alaska Science and Technology Fund to various other non -science
purposes. SB-167, introduced by Senator Fischer on March 8, would
appropriate $60 million from the fund: $15 million for rural water and
sewer projects, $15 million for urban water and sewer projects, $20
million for road maintenance, and $10 million for local service roads
and trails. The bill received one referral, to the Finance Committee.
HB-222 by Rep. Jacko and seven other rural representatives, would
appropriate $72.9 million, allocated as follows: $20 million for road
0
maintenance, $10 million for the a "rural development initiative," and
$42.9 million for village safe water grants and engineering. HB-222
was introduced on March 15 and referred to C&RA and Finance.
Bradlev Lake Suralus
According to information from the Alaska Energy Authority, the
Bradley Lake project is now expected to be finished for about $43
million less than the amount budgeted. Half of this surplus is
attributable to the state's account, and could be reappropriated.
EXTRAORDINARY REVENUES
Exxon Valdez Settlement
The Exxon Valdez oil spill settlement, if approved, may have
material effects on FY 92 revenue. While many questions remain about
the terms of the various settlement documents, legislative attorneys
believe that the state could receive some portion of $72 million within
several months. As nearly as can be determined, this would go into
the general fund to reimburse spill related expenses, and would be
immediately available for appropriation for any lawful purpose.
In addition, the proposed settlement of the federal criminal case
provides that $50 million in criminal restitution would go to the state.
This money would apparently have to be used for restoration, but the
term seems quite broad, such that road construction to open up
recreation areas or the purchase of timber land could be an acceptable
object for the expenditure.
It is also likely that settlement payments could be used for covering
damage assessment and retoration planning costs, currently proposed
at about $12 million, and scheduled to be appropriated from the 470
fund. It does not seem likely that the other monies to be received
from the settlement would materially affect FY 92 revenues.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE IN ALASKA
This paper describes the regulatory environment controlling
Emergency Response to Rescue and Hazardous Material Incidents in
Alaska with regard to capital and equipment requirements.
The two primary requirements under law involve the SARA Title III
(Community Right to Know), and Alaska Department of Labor 8AAC
10.0101 (Hazardous Waste and Emergency Response).
SARA Title III is implemented through the State SERC (State
Emergency Response Committee) and local LEPC's (Local Emergency
Planning Committees). The mandate is to inventory each region's
hazardous material inventory, consider contingency plans in the
event of an uncontrolled release, and train local responders
accordingly. 8AAC 10.0101 provides the standard for the
technical aspects of response and associated training.
These laws have been in existence for several years. Alaska is
making good progress in terms of compliance for the protection of
our population as well as our environment. These laws have been
focused by the Exxon Valdez incident, however, the applicability
and risk go far beyond oil spills.
The State is at the point where actual implementation of a
response contingency plan in most regions of the state are
stymied by the lack of response equipment and supplies provided
for local emergency responders. In most cases, the local
emergency responders will be the local fire brigades.
In the matter of emergency rescue, Alaska currently depends
almost exclusively on the military. Minimal rescue equipment,
especially for water rescues is not generally available to our
fire fighters.
Mandatory training is a very large part of both laws. This
proposal suggests that a classroom and office be provided at the
Kenai Industrial Fire Training Facility to accommodate
instruction and training in all aspects of emergency response in
connection with existing University of Alaska programs.
Alaska has the highest occupational fatality in the nation by a
very wide margin. Alaska also has the highest fatality rate from
recreational accidents. A great many of our fatalities involve
some form of transportation. Until the State can get a handle on
a means of controlling and reducing these high fatality rates, a
relatively small one-time expenditure can at least help expedite
rescue.
Industry has spent millions of dollars on their internal
emergency response. Our public emergency responders are, in many
-1-
cases, hampered by the lack of relatively inexpensive resources
to deal effectively and safely with modern chemical emergencies.
It can be assumed that the railbelt communities may well have to
be the response resource for the rest of the state. This
proposal suggests a means of insuring that railbelt communities
have the minimal material resources to respond locally, and
assist statewide.
The attached listing describes a conservative estimate of the
material support required to provide: (1) An effective Level A
(highest risk category) trained response to HAZ/MAT incidents in
the railbelt and a HAZ/MAT backup capability for the rest of the
state; (2) An effective level of training and material support
for water rescue in the Anchorage area, including Cook Inlet and
waters surrounding the Anchorage International Airport; and (3) A
classroom for the Kenai Industrial Fire Training Facility to
enable use of the facility for advanced training in all aspects
of emergency response.
This proposal represents one-time costs. There are no personnel
costs involved. Alaska will find it impossible to comply with
SARA Title III requirements for implementation if our assigned
response elements do not have the minimal chemical protective
suits, breathing apparatus, and tools to respond to a Level A
situation. Similarly, responsibility for water rescue and
emergencies means little if the basic water rescue equipment is
not available to the responders.
The 1990's are already being called the "Decade of Compliance."
Alaska is doing all it can through the efforts of its volunteer
citizens and fire fighters. This effort will be lost if the
minimum hardware is not provided to implement the response which
compliance with law and regulation requires.

Historical Park
Ceremonies officially dedicating
Gruening State Historical Park were held
November 3, 1990. The site includes the
cabin that Ernest Gruening had built
while he was Territorial Governor. The
cabin was where Gruening wrote his
book The State of Alaska and was
Gruening's listed residence for the re-
mainder of his life. He entertained a
number of dignitaries who visited Alaska
at the cabin and enjoyed retreating there
to fish.
Senator Jim Duncan, Judge Thomas
B. Stewart (Ret.), and Hunt Gruening
spoke at the dedication ceremony hosted
by the Juneau State Parks Citizens
Advisory Board and the Alaska Division
of Parks.
A nomination of the property to the
National Register of Historic Places is
being prepared. Interpretive options and
uses of the park are being studied.
American Grave Protection and Repatri-
ation Act (HR 5237) which recognizes
Native American ownership interests in
some human remains and cultural items
found on federal and Indian lands. It also
requires a repatriation of certain remains
found in museum collections. The law
requires museums to inventory human
remains and associated funerary objects;
further, it requires repatriation of re-
mains and objects to culturally affiliated
tribes, if so requested by the tribes. The
Department of the Interior has estab-
lished a grant program to assist tribes and
Native Hawaiian organizations in repa-
triation, as well as to help museums pre-
pare inventories.
No. 47 January -March 1991
On the State Scene
The Governor's operating budget for
FY 92 (July 1, 1991-June 30, 1992)
reduces state funding for the Office of
History and Archaeology (Historic Re-
source Management budget component)
by $47,900.
The total budget for the office will be
reduced by twice the amount because
state general funds are matched dollar -
for -dollar by federal Historic Preserva-
tion Grant Funds.
The reduction translates to a 20076 core
program cut. There will be 1.5 positions
eliminated from the office's core, basic
service program; and will be reduced
travel and contractual services funds.

Workshop Well Attended
Over 75 people participated in OHA's
workshop, "Planning Anniversary Cele-
brations" on December 1,1990. The par-
ticipants listened to Jerry George take
them through planning a fictitious cele-
bration that did not result in lasting prod-
ucts. The presentation was followed by
discussion and concluded with the par-
ticipants identifying themselves and talk-
ing briefly about the event they were
interested in commemorating.
The Office of History and Archaeol-
ogy is continuing to collect information
and has recently sent a survey to par-
ticipants to begin compiling a calendar of
activities. They are also planning a ses-
sion for next October at the annual
Alaska Historical Society meeting to be
held at Haines, that will focus on the
Alaska Highway and Klondike Gold
Rush celebration plans.
The City of Unalaska became A laska'sfifth Certified Local Government in January. The

Certified Local Government News
The City of Unalaska and the City of
Ketchikan were approved as Certified
Local Governments in January 1991.
They are now eligible to apply for pro-
gram funding from the federal Historic
Preservation Fund that is administered
by the Office of History and Archae-
ology. Matching grant assistance is avail-
able to CL.Gs for survey and inventory
projects, National Register nominations,
development of design guidelines for his-
toric districts, restoration work, and
educational projects.
Alaska now has six CLGs. The others
are the City of Dillingham, the North
Slope Borough, City and Borough of
Juneau, and the Matanuska-Susitna Bor-
ough. For more information about the

Ketchikan is Alaska's other new Certified Local Government.
Preservation Week: Celebrate YOUR Heritage
"Celebrate Your Heritage" is the theme
for National Historic Preservation Week,
May 12-18, 1991. The revitalization of
main streets and the restoration of his-
torically significant buildings are just two
ways in which historic preservation helps
to keep our heritage a vital part of Amer-
ican culture.
This year preservationists are celebrat-
ing two milestones: the 25th anniversary
of the National Register of Historic
Places and the 75th anniversary of the
National Park Service. To highlight these
events, preservationists are encouraged to
find ways to draw attention to as many of
their local National Register sites as pos-
sible. Some suggestions are to hold events
at the sites, give guided tours of them,
decorate them, and produce news stories
of the local media:=
The National Trust has produced a kit
with creative suggestions and "how to"
information. It contains valuable hints
for special events, photo opportunities,
and media coverage. The official poster
has preservationists — including our own
Judy Bittner — waving from Charles-
ton's City Hall.
This is a great opportunity to bring key
people together and to draw public atten-
tion to historic resources. Don't miss your

events scheduled so we can help spread
the word.

Planning is underway for the Second
Alaska Archaeology Week to be held
April 28-May 4, 1991. The program is
designed to give the general public a
greater understanding and appreciation
of archaeology. Last year's program in-
cluded lectures, films, and children's
activities in a number of Alaskan com-
munities. Through these programs and
media coverage, an estimated 100,000
people received a message about archae-
ology and historic preservation.
On the State Scene...
Continued from page 1
Assistance for pre -construction and per-
mitting project review will be reduced and
the process will be slower. Assistance to
local governments to carry out their
historic preservation programs and proj-
ect reviews will be reduced. Help with
baseline research and evaluation assist-
ance for the National Register of Historic
Places will be less.
One of OHNs requests was included in
the Governor's capital budget. Funds
have been requested to reprint the high-
school textbook, Alaska's Heritage. The
book is out -of -print, and last fall there
were orders for over 200 copies of the
book that could not be filled. The second
request, funding to encourage planning
and commemorating anniversaries of
historic events and to provide oversight so
that projects of lasting significance are
able to be done, was not included in the
budget. Members of the Alaska Histori-
cal Commission are compiling informa-
tion and refining the request.
Correction In the last issue, the photo cap-
tion for the steamboat Tutshi should have
credited Yukon Tourism, Heritage Branch with
restoring the boat.

New National Register Listing
The Keeper of the National Register of
Historic Places added First Mission
House in Bethel to the list of significant
properties in the nation on October 30,
1990. The first permanent building at
Bethel, First Mission House is the oldest
property associated with the Moravian's
missionary work in Alaska. Built in 1885,
the house was used as a residence for
staff, as a place of worship, and as a
school. The Alaska Moravian Church
restored the building as part of Bethel's
centennial in 1985.

Register program and Alaska listings is
