    INSIDE: GIGABIT UPGRADE ANNOUNCED | GERHART to RETIRE | XCL MEETS FOR SECOND TIME | ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS ANNOUNCED | ARGUMENTS HEARD DAKOTA DOWNLOAD Governor Burgum’s weekly update | March 23, 2018 GIGABIT UPGRADE ANNOUNCED FOR ND SCHOOLS Gov. Doug Burgum, along with State Superintendent Kirsten Baesler, Chief Information Officer Shawn Riley and Dakota Carrier Network CEO Seth Arndorfer, announced on Thursday a 100-gigabit upgrade to the state network that will put North Dakota schools and government on the nation’s leading edge of internet connectivity and speed. When finished in the summer of 2019, the upgrades will position North Dakota as the first state to achieve 1-gigabit connectivity to every school district in the state. Gerhart to Retire After 26 Years On Thursday, Gov. Burgum expressed his deepest grat- itude to Col. Michael Gerhart Jr., who announced he will retire June 30 after 26 years of service to the North Dakota Highway Patrol. Serving as Highway Patrol Su- perintendent since 2014, Gerhart has spent his entire law enforcement career with the agency, starting as a troop- er in 1992. He was promoted to sergeant in 2004 and to lieutenant in August 2007, serving as the patrol’s safety and education officer. He was training director of the Law Enforcement Training Academy before being promoted to major in 2011 and serving as the field operations com- mander. “The Highway Patrol is a stronger agency and North Dakota is a safer place because of Col. Gerhart’s exceptional service as a law enforcement officer and leader,” Burgum said. EXtended Cabinet Group Meets for Second Time Tuesday marked the second meeting of the Extended Cabinet Leadership (XCL).

The AML Program was established to enable the states and tribes to protect their citizens from the dangerous and costly impacts of coal mines left unreclaimed prior to SMCRA. The AML fee that funds the AML Program will expire September 30, 2021, unless Congress reauthorizes legislation to extend it. The Public Service Commission administers the Abandoned Mine Lands (AML) Program on behalf of the State of North Dakota. A federal fee on coal production funds the AML Program. Our funding has been used exclusively to reclaim high priority abandoned coal mines and our administrative costs have remained low. The federal Office of Surface Mining has consistently commended the North Dakota PSC for its efficient and effective AML Program. The attached Fact Sheet summarizes our AML program and accomplishments. Some of our most important AML work has been stabilizing undermined roads and residential areas.

Two provisions of North Dakota Senate Bill 2231 (SB 2231) are at issue in this case. The first prohibits air ambulance providers from directly billing out-of-network insured patients for any amount not paid for by their insurers (the payment provision). N.D. Cent. Code § 26.1-47-09(3). The second prohibits air ambulance providers or their agents from selling subscription agreements (the subscription provision). N.D. Cent. Code § 26.1-47-08. Guardian Flight LLC filed this declaratory judgment action, claiming that both provisions are preempted under the Airlines Deregulation Act (ADA). Defendants Jon Godfread, in his capacity as North Dakota Insurance Commissioner, and Wayne Stenehjem, in his capacity as North Dakota Attorney General, responded that, even if preempted, the provisions were saved under the McCarran-Ferguson Act.
