ANCs Announce Effort to Defeat Ballot Measure 1

Six Alaska Native Corporations announce the formation of the No One On One coalition

Arctic Slope Regional Corporation (ASRC), Doyon, Limited, Cook Inlet Region Inc. (CIRI), NANA Development Corporation, Bristol Bay Native Corporation (BBNC) and Bering Straits Native Corporation (BSNC) have joined together to educate voters and defeat Ballot Measure 1.

Coalition founders include:

• Rex A. Rock Sr., ASRC President & CEO

• Aaron Schutt, Doyon President & CEO

• Sophie Minich, CIRI President & CEO

• Helvi Sandvik, NANA Development Corporation President

• Jason Metrokin, BBNC President & CEO

• Gail Schubert, BSNC President & CEO

Rex A. Rock Sr. will serve as the Chair, and Barbara Donatelli of CIRI will serve as the Treasurer.

The coalition believes that “no one” who understands and cares about the Alaska economy would vote to approve Ballot Measure 1. The name of the coalition is derived from the message the coalition will be delivering to Alaskans in the weeks leading up to Alaska’s Aug. 19 primary election.

“We are a coalition of local Alaskan companies with our eye on our future as Alaskans, our businesses, the economy and opportunities for our shareholders and residents. We are not headquartered in London or Houston; we represent the Arctic Slope, Interior, Northwest

Arctic, Cook Inlet, Bristol Bay and Bering Straits regions of Alaska,” said coalition Chairman Rex A. Rock Sr. “A healthy oil industry means a healthy economy, and Ballot Measure 1 is a threat to the future of every Alaskan.”

President and CEO of Doyon, Limited, Aaron Schutt, said, “Seven years of ACES drove investment out of Alaska, and the jobs that went with it. It’s not an academic exercise or a debate for us. We witnessed it, just as we are now seeing a resurgence in jobs because of SB 21.”

“CIRI’s top priority is to maintain strong dividends for our shareholders, and a strong, vibrant Alaska economy is essential for our success,” said CIRI President and CEO Sophie Minich. “We witnessed the industry’s commitment to new investment and have seen for ourselves the rebound in jobs and activity in the oil and gas industry and we want to see that trend continue.”

“A healthy oil industry is important for the state of Alaska, and important to NANA,” said Helvi Sandvik, President of NANA Development Corporation. “NANA has worked in the oil and gas industry in Alaska for 35 years. In 2013, NANA had over 4,000 employees, including 1,000 of our shareholders, working in the industry. We need more investment in the oil industry. The state’s new tax structure encourages that investment and this is why we are opposed to Ballot Measure 1, which would take us back to a tax policy that discourages investment and leads to lower revenues for the state. This is bad for business, and bad for our communities.”

“As an Alaskan corporation, Bristol Bay Native Corporation is committed to responsible resource development,” said Jason Metrokin, President and CEO of BBNC. “Alaskans and BBNC shareholders benefit greatly from the oil industry as it provides significant employment opportunities and contributes to a strong and vibrant economy.”

Gail Schubert, President and CEO of BSNC, said the coalition will not be accepting any oil industry money. “This is about Alaskans coming together to recognize the benefits that tax reform has already created, and working together to keep Alaska from taking a giant step backwards,” said Schubert.

Our Board looks out for the interests of the Corporation. While he was the commissioner of the Department of Natural Resources and attorney general, he actively sought to resolve many of the outstanding issues directly with the North Slope Borough, throughout several administrations. He removed barriers and reduced tension between our region and the state of Alaska, and he took a stand against domestic violence and helped lead the Choose Respect initiative. Further, when there were unresolved hunting issues in our communities, he worked to find solutions with our hunters. He has worked hard on issues important to ASRC at the national level, including taking action on ANWR, government contracting and resource development issues. He has pledged to protect our whaling rights and has diplomatic ties to ensure those rights are protected.

The son-in-law of Bud and Mary Jane Fate, Dan has spent a lot of time in Interior Alaska along the Yukon River. He is an educated, Christian family man who respects diversity and seeks to find solutions to complex issues rather than actively divide Alaskans. Dan Sullivan currently is a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Marines, and we appreciate his acknowledgement and respect for Alaska Native veterans and active duty members. He understands what “going to battle” means. We want to see him move from the front lines to the floor of Congress, going to battle for Alaska.

As ASRC continues to grow, we will have to make difficult decisions for the Corporation; sometimes this means engaging in the political side of public policy. Shareholders and employees are free to volunteer on any campaign for any office. At this juncture, an overwhelming majority of the board has chosen to join me in publicly supporting Dan Sullivan. If you choose the Republican ballot during the primary election on Aug. 19, please consider the candidate that will best represent the Corporation collectively owned by ASRC shareholders.

You are invited to stand with George Ahmaogak Sr., Jacob Adams, Patsy Aamodt, Ida Olemaun, George Sielak, Raymond Paneak, Thomas Nukapigak, Glen Solomon, Mary Ellen Ahmaogak, Richard Glenn, Eddie Ahyakak, Rex Rock Sr. and myself, Crawford Patkotak, in support of Dan Sullivan for United States Senate.

For more information please submit your request to [email protected].

There are two Dan Sullivans running for public office this election season. One is the mayor of Anchorage, and he is running for Lt. Governor. The other is the former attorney general and commissioner of the Alaska Department of Natural Resources, and he is running for U.S. Senate, the seat formerly held by Sen. Ted Stevens.

On July 3, ASRC issued a press release announcing its support for U.S. Senate candidate Dan Sullivan. This primary election endorsement came after careful consideration of this year’s upcoming election for U.S. Senate. The executive board unanimously voted to endorse Dan Sullivan, and those not on the executive board were also consulted and asked whether they, too, would support an endorsement of U.S. Senate candidate Dan Sullivan. An overwhelming majority of the ASRC Board of Directors voiced their support in favor of this endorsement. Some may wonder why ASRC has chosen to endorse a candidate in the Republican primary, and I am happy to share with you why this is an important vote for our shareholders and all Alaskans.

There are three candidates running in the Republican primary: Lt. Governor Meade Treadwell, Dan Sullivan and Joe Miller. When weighing our options, Dan Sullivan rose to the top based on his engagement with our region and alignment with the mission of ASRC.

While there are other candidates in the Republican primary, an endorsement of Dan Sullivan in the primary election signifies that out of the three Republican candidates, Dan Sullivan’s economic vision for Alaska is aligned with the mission of ASRC, and he has a history of working with the North Slope.

Letter from ASRC Board Chairman, Crawford Patkotak

Gail Schubert

Rex A. Rock Sr., ASRC president & CEO; Aaron Schutt, Doyon president & CEO; Sophie Minich, CIRI president and CEO; Helvi Sandvik, NANA Development Corporation president; Jason Metrokin, Bristol Bay Native Corporation president and CEO; and Gail Schubert, Bering Straits Native Corp. president and CEO are among the founders of "No One On One," a coalition of six Alaska Native corporations which have joined together against Ballot Measure 1.

Many Alaskans may wonder why six of the largest Native corporations have united behind the effort to defeat Ballot Measure 1. Those who know little about us might assume it’s because some of the coalition members have business interests aligned with the oil industry. But that is too simple an answer. We did not enter into this conversation lightly.

As First Alaskans, our people have learned for generations to use and protect the resources that surround us. We have learned that to provide for future generations – for tomorrow’s children to have the same opportunities we enjoy – hard decisions must be made today.

We have listened carefully to the debate surrounding tax reform and weighed its benefits and drawbacks. We have also allowed ourselves the time to determine if the oil industry’s promises of increased investment were genuine. Some of our businesses are in the oil industry and some are not. What we have seen is an increase in investment into our oil industry, aimed at getting new oil in the pipeline. While that may be good for some of our businesses, it is good for all Alaskans. Our corporations collectively employ thousands of Alaskans and our employees support small Alaska businesses and the overall economy. New investments increase our opportunity to put new oil in the pipeline. Extending the life of our oil fields translates into continued contributions to our state treasury and the services the state provides to Alaskans for the long-term.

Even the harshest critics of SB 21 publicly acknowledged that ACES was broken. We watched as lawmakers worked for seven years to “fix” ACES while investment dried up and jobs by the hundreds disappeared. Experienced workers left Alaska to find opportunities in other oil-producing states, all of which saw an increase in oil production and investment due to high prices. Opponents of SB 21 would like us to believe that giving lawmakers more time to “fix” ACES is the answer. It makes no sense to vote to repeal a productive law like SB 21 to go back to ACES.

ACES clearly had Alaska on a path of no return. We can understand the attraction of high taxes and recognize the benefits that oil tax dollars provide. But we learned generations ago that you cannot take all the fish, harvest every bowhead or hunt all the caribou in a single season without suffering the consequences the following year. There is a time to reap and a time to sow. Alaska was doing nothing but reaping in the years of ACES, but nobody was sowing the seeds of reinvestment that would sustain us and sustain our children in the future.

With all that we have learned and witnessed for ourselves, we could no longer remain silent. There have been times in Alaska’s history when the First Alaskans have felt the need to speak with one voice for our future. For the leadership of Arctic Slope Regional Corporation, Doyon, Limited, Cook Inlet Region Incorporated, NANA Development Corporation, Bristol Bay Native Corporation and Bering Straits Native Corporation, now is such a time.

Like all Alaskans, our shareholders have been bombarded with misinformation on the impacts of SB 21 from those who believe the oil industry must invest in Alaska regardless of our tax policies. Simply put, as well-intentioned as they might have been, those people got it wrong seven years ago, and they still have it wrong today.

As the state’s largest private landowners, the long-term economic impact of these decisions will impact the development of our resources. Production of Native oil and gas resources needs to be competitive in order to share their potential with all Alaskans.

So we come to all Alaskans with a simple question: Who would vote to take away the opportunity to build a better future for their children? The answer is the same from the North Slope to Southeast. From Southcentral to Northwest Alaska. From the Interior to Western Alaska. The answer, simply, is no one. Join us in voting no on Ballot Measure 1.

Brenda Itta-LeeIf a good leader, as author Arnold H. Glasow put it, “takes a little more than his share of the blame, and a little less than his share of the credit,” then Brenda Itta-Lee can accurately be described as one of the great leaders in the Corporation’s, and even the state’s history. Unapologetic for her steadfast support for the economic and cultural freedoms of the Iñupiat people, Itta-Lee also casts an unassuming shadow over her long list of accomplishments. We recently caught up with the former Arctic Slope Regional Corporation board member and asked about her role in creating the long-term vision for the company, and the behind-the-scenes battle for land claims in Alaska.

“None of the work was for money. I had a passion to help our people, to make sure their rights as American citizens were intact,” Itta-Lee told us from Anchorage. “We had no idea at the time that our decisions would be so influential, just how our work would become part of Alaska and American history.”

Born in Barrow, Itta-Lee earned her political capital while living in Washington, D.C., lobbying for a Native claims settlement and while serving as an aide to U.S. Senator Ernest Gruening. It’s during that time, and her frequent travels to various North Slope communities, that she saw the need for better representation of the Iñupiat people firsthand. The path to becoming more involved in Native affairs in Alaska seemed obvious. “It was an honor to be a part of the land claims fight,” she said.

That understanding of the political process and commitment to the region wasn’t lost on ASRC board members and management, who unanimously asked her, or as she describes it, recruited her, to run for statewide office in the early ‘70s. Itta-Lee would become the first Alaska Native woman to serve in the Alaska House, from

1974 to 1976. It was during this time that she co-sponsored a bill that allowed for the creation of the Alaska Permanent Fund. After one term in state politics, Brenda knew it was time to return to the North Slope and become more involved at the local level. She became a fixture at the newly formed North Slope Borough. Eventually her career path took her to ASRC, where she became instrumental in establishing some of ASRC’s shareholder development policies and helped to direct the Company on a path towards financial and employment success.

What stands out as possibly the most memorable highlight of her long and successful career? Itta-Lee remembers working with her fellow ASRC board members in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s to create a strategic plan for the company that would extend 20 years into the future, a plan that set a goal for the Corporation to crack the billion dollar mark in annual revenue. She also helped to create ASRC’s mission statement, words and guidelines that the company is still living by today.

ASRC Acquires Little Red Services

“I have seen the company grow from a multi-million dollar company to a multi-billion dollar company,” comments Mary Ellen Ahmaogak, board member for over 15 years,“and that is due to the strong and stable leadership [in ASRC].”

ASRC’s success resulted in a special dividend being declared in the fall of 2013, totaling $100 per share.

Mary Ellen has witnessed shareholders using the special dividend to purchase new trucks and drive them from Anchorage to the villages, new snow machines, building or paying off houses, and even buying essential health care supplies. Mary Ellen shares that her own sister, who requires oxygen 24/7, was grateful because she was able to buy herself a new portable oxygen machine and no longer needed to rent one.

In January 2014, the Board announced its decision to begin distributing dividends quarterly, rather than twice a year, as they have done for almost 20 years. In regards to the new quarterly dividend distributions, Mary Ellen comments, “They will help a lot. With the Native elders that are living on a fixed income and the village jobs being so scarce, the people can now rely on the quarterly dividends to help with their heating bills, utility bills, housing costs, mortgage payments, etc.”

Mary Ellen remembers when things were a lot different, when times were simple and she went out on the ocean for the first time on her father’s boat to go seal hunting. It was in February, a typical time to hunt seals in the North Slope, and she was just 5 years old. “My dad taught me everything,” she says. Mary Ellen remembers the hard work she and her siblings had to endure in order to survive in her village of Wainwright. However, it never felt like work, she notes. It never felt like something they had to do, because they had fun doing it. “When my parents left to go chop wood, we kids wanted to go too!” she says. “They made our survival something we wanted to do.”

This is the same mindset she maintains to this day with her role as Corporate Secretary. When you find a job that you love, it doesn’t always feel like “work” or something you “have” to do, she says. When asked what encourages her to be a board member for ASRC, her reply is simple: she loves working for her people. Mary Ellen encourages upcoming leaders to “get your education, work hard and find a career that you will love every day, as I do.”

After being appointed by the board in 1997, in response to the loss of former member Frances Hopson, Mary Ellen made the move to Anchorage with her family, including the family dog, to pursue her new career with ASRC. Her parents, the late Benjamin Sr. and Florence Ahmaogak, played a huge role in her life as role models, inspiration figures, mentors and caretakers of her children, Krystle, Benjamin, Elena and Gareth. Eventually, Mary Ellen and her family moved back home to Wainwright, where she currently resides.

After many months of planning and preparation, Arctic Slope Regional Corporation is pleased to announce the acquisition of Little Red Services, Inc. (LRS). LRS has been in operation for more than 30 years and provides “hot oil” and other well services on the North Slope.

“It’s an exciting day for ASRC,” said Rex A. Rock Sr., president and CEO of ASRC. “I believe the nature of LRS’ services positions the Company for long-term growth as North Slope producers seek to increase production, as a result of oil tax reform.”

“I speak for LRS employees when I say we are excited to join the ASRC family of companies,” added Doug Smith, LRS president and CEO. “ASRC and LRS have a shared commitment to the Alaska oil and gas industry, and I believe the combination of oil tax reform and the financial support of ASRC will allow LRS to expand and improve the services we have provided to North Slope producers for more than three decades.”

As a wholly owned subsidiary of ASRC, LRS will be operated separately from ASRC Energy Services, Inc. (AES). This operating structure will help to protect LRS’ brand and allows the management teams at LRS and AES to focus on what they do best.

Roundtable Discussion: On Feb. 10, Angelene met with the Nunamiut leaders to discuss the needs of the community from the leaders’ perspectives. There were approximately 20 people who participated in this roundtable discussion. Freight costs, the cost of living expenses and the need for healthier activities for the youth were among the many topics discussed. This meeting was a great way for PSI to start building a stronger relationship with the community.

Presentation of Warm-ups/Jerseys: Angelene and PSI employee Uriah Nalikak went to Anaktuvuk Pass on Feb. 21 for a presentation by the Nunamiut Basketball teams, recognizing PSI for the monetary donation for warm-ups and practice jerseys. The presentation was during the one and only home basketball game, in which both Nunamiut basketball teams won.

Food Bank Fundraiser: While in AKP for the presentation of the jerseys/warm-ups, Angelene set up a food bank fundraiser for AKP’s food bank, which has been closed for a few months. Angelene and Uriah accepted food donations, sold 50/50 raffle tickets and also raffled items donated by ASRC, Doyon, Warbelows Air, Wright Air and the Simon Paneak Museum. The items donated were round-trip tickets, a beautiful handmade beaded purse, a VHF radio, a hunting knife, food and hoodies. PSI and the Paannaq program are very thankful for the organizations that donated items for this much needed cause.

Shareholder Burner Technician Training Program: Angelene is currently looking for two ASRC shareholders, who are residents of AKP, to travel to Fairbanks for training with the Sourdough Fuel Burner Technicians. Any interested applicants should contact their local Village Resource Representative.
