Northern Waters Task Force Meeting in Barrow

Friday, December 3rd, 2010

I traveled to Barrow this week to attend the second meeting of the Alaska Northern Waters Task Force.

As Alaska’s northernmost community, Barrow is a good location to consider Alaska’s interests regarding arctic issues.  The meeting featured public testimony from the community as well as presentations on arctic transportation, communications, and energy.

The meeting was held in conjunction with the Pacific Northwest Economic Region (PNWER) Arctic Caucus.  The joint meeting was a great opportunity for U.S. and Canadian leaders to discuss arctic issues and begin to identify solutions to future challenges to development.

I enjoyed our time in Barrow and look forward to continuing the task force’s work to put Alaska at the forefront of U.S. Arctic Policy.

District A Resident Appointed to Cabinet

Friday, December 3rd, 2010

I’m pleased the Governor appointed Cora Campbell as Commissioner of the Alaska Department of Fish & Game.  Having both grown up in Petersburg, I’ve known Cora and her family for a long time. I am glad the governor turned to her in bringing new leadership to his cabinet.  I’ve worked with Cora recently in her capacity as fisheries policy advisor to the governor, and I’m confident she’ll do great things for Alaska’s resources.  It’s great to have a Southeast resident selected for this important position.
