Alaska Politics Blog : Palin signs rebate bill; gas line bill Wednesday

Alaska Politics Blog

This is the place to talk about Alaska politics -- state, local, national. Public life in the Last Frontier has probably never been more interesting than right now -- the governor as candidate for vice president, the broad and still-evolving corruption investigation, a big election, powerful members of Congress under scrutiny, and the usual hardball Alaska politics. Come here for news, tidbits and information, and join the discussion. Keep your comments civil and on point. Avoid personal attacks. Do not use profanity.

Palin signs rebate bill; gas line bill Wednesday

Posted by Wesley Loy

Posted: August 25, 2008 - 6:03 pm

From Wesley Loy in Anchorage –

Gov. Sarah Palin today signed legislation granting a $1,200 "resource rebate" to Alaskans.

On Wednesday she'll put pen to paper again on House Bill 3001, which grants an exclusive state natural gas pipeline license to Calgary-based TransCanada Corp.

The TransCanada and rebate bills were the major products of two 30-day special legislative sessions this summer.

Lawmakers passed HB 3001 after weeks of arduous hearings, some held outside of Juneau in such far-flung places as Barrow.

Wednesday’s signing will have a labor theme, as Palin will ink the bill at the AFL-CIO convention at the Hotel Captain Cook, said Palin spokeswoman Sharon Leighow.

You might be surprised to know that for such a huge deal, the TransCanada bill is itty-bitty.

Palin was definitely pro Port Authority prior to her swearing in

I was at a Backbone II/AGPA meeting October of '05. Sarah Palin was there, as was Wally Hickel. Sarah was unequivocal in her support of the all-Alaska LNG project, as well as being in favor of a gross wellhead tax. She bailed on both issues shortly after swearing-in. Palin said that "they drug me kicking and screaming" from the gross wellhead tax. Hmm. Who's "they", Sarah?

I voted for Sarah. But she doesn't seem to follow through on issues she used to be quite passionate about.

There is so much that we could do with our resource riches if we would quit behaving like a third world country kissing the hands of our petro-benefactors.

For those who haven't read Wally Hickel's book "Crisis In The Commons", may I most humbly recommend it. It gives a hint of what Alaska could be if we would only realize that this is an Owner State. In fact, the ONLY Owner State in America. What we fought for and WON in our state constitution exists nowhere else. But our power is going to waste through the usual suspects.......ignorance and apathy.

Hey at this late Date

We're finally figuring it out!

The last minute passage of the AGIA involved "Agree to bargaining" for labor that was pushed by influence peddlers.

What this actually means it there will be all the fraud and organized influence on every little thing that happens on the project that that is often manipulated by criminal influence.

Why are the socialist Dems so interested in collective bargaining? Because it gives them a pool of regular cash flow where they can skim money. And they don't have to return any prodiuct, and in the case of JIM DUNCAN"S STIPULATION TO RESOLVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST they don't even have to provide any service, they just TAKE MONEY OU OF THE POCKET OF WORKERS. What is up with this?:

Congratulations Gov Palin

The Knowles administration did not get it done.
Frank Murkowski could not get it done.
Ted Stevens did not get it done.
Don Young did not get it done.

You, Governor Palin, through the AGIA process, have caused not one but two natural gas pipeline initiatives to move forward, further than ever before.

Especially, this is a victory over the Reudrich Republicans, whose corruption never produced anything of value. They still hang around this forum, nattering away, unable to build anything, cynical in their frustration as their power erodes, only tearing down.

August 27, 2008 - 1:21pm | bobthecat

You're kidding, right????

Watchman,

Please write a posting when you actually see a gasline built. While you may choose to malign the list of former politicians for not 'getting it done,' the fact is the deals they were working on involved negotiating with parties who actually own the rights to gas and who actually have the financial depth to build a pipeline. The only project with any potential is Denali.

The reality of AGIA is that it's you and me sitting down to sign a gas pipeline deal - neither one of us owns the gas, neither one of us has the cash to build anything, but I'm going to pay you $500 million (collected, incidently from parties that do own gas and can build a pipeline) to study what can be done. WHEEE! We got a pipeline deal!!!!!

If that sounds ridiculous to you, that's because AGIA is ridiculous.

August 27, 2008 - 2:31pm | watchman

Try again

1. Most gasline transportation contracts in North America involve one or more transporters and one or more owners/producers. Alaska is not accustomed to this style of business, but it is true nonetheless.
2. Alaska owns a considerable amount of gas, both discovered and undiscovered, the recently re-acquired Pt. Thompson leases being one example.
3. Alaska has an original owner stake in gas owned by producers, in that the gas must be produced to market.
4. AGIA represents a sharing of risk as the cost of assembling the financing for a very large transport facility contract is accrued. There is some innovation in that aspect, due to the location and size of the project - that being the largest construction project in North American history.

In reality, AGIA brings Alaska up to date with contemporary business practice in the North American gas industry.

I invite you to consider what used to be the traditional Alaskan value of simply getting things done. With AGIA, Gov Palin's team brought Alaska current with the larger industry, and moved a stalled initiative forward. She can legitimately take credit for having stimulated Denali, and for having accomplished the TransCanada license. I see that you approve of Denali, and that is great. You are halfway home.

The AGIA concept will be used again, as a means of stimulating resistant development projects forward.

8 August 26, 2008 - 9:13am | TheSdog

So Palin will

sign into law her bribes.

Then the deal brokered for Marty Rutherford's former employer will be signed.

It is wonderful to have such an ethical government.

7 August 26, 2008 - 8:10am | dab

Way to GO Gov.

Alaska thanks you for your support of energy needs and for moving Alaska forward on a Natural Gas Pipeline.
Long Term Energy issues have been ignored long enough.
Keep up the good work.

6 August 26, 2008 - 7:48am | rfn

There's still time

for the Great Canadian Job Enhancement Bill to be vetoed and reserve Alaska's natural gas for Alaskans.

August 26, 2008 - 8:00am | Gus_Davis

Election Time '06

She first was a proponent of the "All Alaska" gasline, no?

August 26, 2008 - 8:15am | heatherkaye72

No...Murkowski was...he initiated talks with TransCanada and she took it over when she went into office and called it her own.

August 26, 2008 - 8:22am | Gus_Davis

By "All Alaska"

I meant LNG to Valdez. Wasn't she touting that was the viable project when she was running for office?

The Port Authourity guys?

August 26, 2008 - 8:51pm | Stags__Leap

Trust Palin

She knows what's best.

August 26, 2008 - 8:28am | Stags_Leap

Palin's terrible leadership

she brought us higher taxes for industry, bigger government, and an abuse of power.

She can't be trusted, and neither can Parnell.

August 26, 2008 - 8:54am | Gus_Davis

Bigger Government?

Really? Where are they all?

August 26, 2008 - 8:49pm | Stags__Leap

They're all

off on silly paper chases and other busy work, courtesy of blowhards like Fagan and Halcro, who otherwise spend their time grousing about how inefficient government is.

Why won't they stop harassing Gov. Palin? They're so mean.

August 26, 2008 - 9:12am | Stags_Leap

check the operating budget

which Palin-Parnell allowed to grow by 23% in Year One of their administration.

That's called Growing Government.

August 26, 2008 - 9:15am |

Post a Link

August 26, 2008 - 9:24am | TheSdog

Gus

The operating budget increased 23%, that really is not a point there is any question about.

August 26, 2008 - 4:02pm | Gus_Davis

I wouldn't have doubted it but would like to se stags link

I really wouldn't have doubted it but would like to see stags link. And that he can be kind of projectile when it comes to full 'o crap.

Isn't $500 million a year still going to pay down the PERS deficite? A leftover from the Murkowski plan? That crap the Knowles Admin. left over has got to be bumping up the current budget a few points.

Pers- another Multi Billion Dollar Deficite, and yet another 'gift' of Jim Duncan's economy denting blunders.

Having everyone retire by lowering service time requirement, then bring them back to work to collect retirement and pay, too. No wonder they called that legislation "RIP."

August 26, 2008 - 10:11am | akgen

good grief

all this talk of a increased operating budget... try not to forget that the previous admin had to cut it ... that 'alignment of the stars' claimed there was no money and eliminated lots of things...

August 26, 2008 - 10:41am | ArtChance

Get out the Bob's and show us where

the "previous admin" imposed a real dollar cut in the operating budget. Some things got moved around and some people didn't get increments they wanted, but there weren't real dollar cuts. And for the first time since time immemorial all labor agreement costs were reported and funded rather than just pumped into vacancy factor.

It took a while to see through the subterfuge of subfunds and restricted funds but by the third year with rising oil prices, there was no impetus from the Gov's office to cut costs or hold back on reasonable increments. You still had to fight your way past Admin Services Directors and OMB analysts who thought they knew more about your program than you did, but there was no policy level directive to do anything other than ask for what you reasonably needed.

August 28, 2008 - 3:40am | Gus_Davis

Public Reference Material Re: Jim Duncan Conflict of Interest.

The "previous administration" certainly planned on cutting corners when it came to resolving grievances , they thought.

Let's share this, Jim's public file that the state somehow doesn't want to make available as part of "transparency."

Public File.Public File.Public File.Public File.Public

Public File.Public File.Public File.Public File.Public

Now back over to Redstate where you can preach your blowhard crap and lies to the uninformed choir, and you can explain to them your statement 'few if any will be convicted.'

by Achance

Actually, the document you're quoting is statutorily confidential, and whoever you got it from stole it.

In Vino Veritas

August 26, 2008 - 5:40pm | Gus_Davis

all labor agreement costs

The major cost cutting part of Labor Agreement was to Get someone with a conflict of interest to agree not to represent any contract. Just happens Jim Duncan's conflict of interest dealt with stepping straight into Union Hack from Commissioner of Administration, and Murkowski drafted Agreement for him. Jim Stipulated to do nothing, and then pretends like he can. A fraud perp'd by both sides of the deal.

That's one agreement that should have been a wink and a nod, but the idiots drafted it up and then tried to conceal it as a confidential document. They had it drafted up and signed because Jim Duncan wasn't trustworthy as far as you could throw 'em. And Frank knew that, and as well he wanted to keep his henchmen appeased, too.

Seems that corrupt management decision is what ultimately is causing the biggest 'tear' in the social fabric as you say, ART.. You were pretty close to Jim through all that drafting of that document weren't you ART? Labor Relations Quite cozy is the way they describe it with the ASEA paid to do nothing ?

August 26, 2008 - 5:54pm | ArtChance

Just in case anyone reading this should think

that you have a clue what you're talking about:

First, Duncan's stipulation was with the Ethics Attorney and based on a complaint brought by a former ASEA business agent who'd been fired by them. Sound familiar? The Administration had nothing to do with it and frankly couldn't care less that Duncan went to ASEA. I knew about the ethics stipulation but never saw it until ASEA filed a grievance on the way HI contributions were made. I asked the Ethics Attorney for a copy to see if I could use it to mess with Duncan's head a little, didn't come to anything.

Duncan and ASEA got the same as everyone else in the first round in '03. They actually did a little better than others on HI contribution in the '04 - '07 round since they were the last to come in and I really didn't much care what the contract said so long as I could get them under contract so they couldn't be whipped up to a frenzy for the '04 elections.

I doubt anyone with ASEA would describe our relations as "cozy;" they faced July 1, 2004, with an expired contract, at impasse with the State, and with the certain knowledge that we would have cut off their dues and started counting how many people were voluntarily paying. That situation crystalizes a union's perceptions and being of sound mind, they decided that it was better to be under contract than to have everyone out singing songs and carrying signs in the 2004 election.

This game is played at a lot of levels and you don't even understand the first level.

August 27, 2008 - 5:27pm | Gus_Davis

What Level is Federal Appeals?

You still think of Government as State , and a "Game" to boot. Bone up idiot, the Feds are here now.

What did the Ethics Attorney have anything to do with making sure ADF&G Habitat Employees would not be represented after their layoff? That was one of Frank's Pet Projects along with centralized HR/LR, and moving the Human Rights commission to his office. If you plan on abusing people's rights you gotta plan ahead, huh?

Yeah, you have dinner and the sun goes down. No correlation of one causing the other you might say. Corrupt Business Manager signs an agreement not to represent grievances, workers rights get violated. There is proximate cause there, and you know it well enough you can write anything you want, anything, any kind of BS and fairy tale lies on that Grievance response and it's going to fly with Jim Duncan.

Using the US Mail is where you come into trouble with carrying out the scheme.

The Stipulation with Jim Duncan smacks of having Frank Murkowski's hands ALL OVER IT, and they are.

Just because you call everyone on this blog idiots doesn't make it so. Quite the opposite, in fact. It makes you the idiot.

And your qualifying "Just in Case anyone reading this ...bla bla " is warning to get the waders on because it's about to get stinky and deep.

August 28, 2008 - 2:54am | ArtChance

Federal appeals is the level

that you're never going to get to. And you're about the only person on this blog that I routinely call an idiot.

August 28, 2008 - 3:52am | Gus_Davis

Been There , Done that

and that first dismissal in '04 was really didactic. Basically the Magistrate showed me what it took to even be in Federal Court, and it was pretty complex but I had it back to him within the thirty days.

And I'm learning about filing criminal things like allegations of mail fraud under seal. Like all that stuff should have been.

And like an Alleged "Ethics Crisis" in the state. I Listed Ted, Ben, VECO, ADAK, PERS, Duncan Union violations and underlying state violations you [pretend to not] know about. Filed in the 9th Late Oct/Nov 2005 about 10 months before the only raid of it's kind ever on a State Legislature. But you know that and are lying that you don't. Remember the first Raid. and press release from DOJ looking for "Ethics Violations?" Well that is because a Federal Circuit Judge said to do it.

You get the case number before, and if I remember correct Clifton, Gould and Kennedy were on the Ninth Circuit panel. Go hate them or call them idiots if it helps your hypertension.

The stuff should have been filed under seal, but I'm kind of new at the Federal Courts.

Save your lies for Redstate.com idiots or the prosecutors. Prosecutors like people that lie to them and it is provable. Funny how people from that RS blog asking me to write a response to your B.S for them to post.

I see the RS moderators leave that stuff posted now that it is obvious that you and Jim and your have put a "RIP" in the social Fabric of Alaska. Art you do have some " 'splainin " to do . Do you ever figure they'd betray you like that? Do you think they'd Shun your presence there?

I would start with 'splainin' with "power corrupts" if I were you. And quit with the dummy-up pretending like you know nothing about it.

August 26, 2008 - 11:44am | TheSdog

C'mon Art

You know better than anybody that not getting the desired increase is a cut in the government world.

5 August 26, 2008 - 6:53am | Stags__Leap

Palin's quality leadership

has brought us, at long last, a viable contract for a gas pipeline. TransCanada is the perfect company to partner with, too. They have a longstanding reputation in the industry and lots of experience building pipelines.

Thank you Gov. Palin.

August 26, 2008 - 7:51am | heatherkaye72

Leadership????

It's funny you say that. I was under the impression that Palin worked this TransCanada deal all on her own...then I found out Murkowski was the one who initiated meetings and got things started with them. So please define "leadership" for me....Because it is definetley not someone who will take someone else's beginings and claim it as their own. That is exactly what she did...she is being hailed as a savior for this state because of the TransCanada deal....and it wasn't even hers to start with. Taking credit for something that you didn't do....crooked if you ask me...

4 August 26, 2008 - 5:11am | Stags_Leap

Another stupid move by Palin

pandering to DEMS and unions now...on the eve of the primary election no less.

I told you that "resource rebate" was a sophmoric attempt to buy votes for her and her little cult of worshippers. The timing of this announcement makes it quite clear. This is all the more incentive to NOT vote for Parnell, Gatto, or Menard.

The special investigation continues. Palin can launch all of the feel-good Press Releases she wants to -but at the end of the day the special investigation continues into her abuses of power.

August 26, 2008 - 7:51am |

That ain't oil

August 26, 2008 - 9:21am | predictable

Oh well...

The one that I hate see back in his seat is Gatto. I know he's been there and has name recognition, but his respect in Juneau seems to be lacking.
I don't live in the valley, but I haven't seen much on his opponent David Cheezem either.
I know the R's won't eat their own, but you'd think that with the unbelievable growth in the valley in recent years a viable candidate would appear?

August 26, 2008 - 5:37am | Gus_Davis

Another stupid Stags post

Most likely the investigators quit about 4:3o 0r 5:oo. I kept one until after 6:oo one time because he was interested in what I had to say.

But then they go home and have dinner and or do what they do like any others.

3 August 25, 2008 - 10:29pm | LilysDaddy

One feature of

the bill signed by Palin today that's not received much attention: the action ...suspends the state’s motor fuel tax on gasoline...for a year which should reduce the per-gallon price at the pump by $0.08.

Not much, and charges of a gas price-fixing conspiracy will continue unabated, but hey.

2 August 25, 2008 - 10:05pm | Stags__Leap

Thank you, Gov. Palin

Your leadership and commitment to a vibrant future for Alaska is evident in this gas line bill. Keep up the good work. You are appreciated.

August 26, 2008 - 6:51am | Stags_Leap

to the Fake Stags Leap

with the extra "_" in the name, Parnell is not from Alaska. LeDoux and Young are much better options.

You can't trust Parnell. He is a mere tool of Prom Queen Palin.
