WESTERN STATES LEGISLATIVE DIRECTORY 2011-2012 the Council of State Governments-WEST 2011 Officers The COUNCIL OF sTATE gOVERNMENTS -West WESTERN STATES LEGISLATIVE DIRECTORY 2011-2012 The Council of State Governments-WEST 2011 Officers CSG-WEST CHAIR CSG-WEST CHAIR ELECT CSG-WEST VICE CHAIR CSG-WEST IMMEDIATE Marcus Oshiro Rosie Berger Kelvin Atkinson PAST CHAIR Representative Representative Assemblyman Rich Wills Hawaii Wyoming Nevada Representative Idaho The Council of State Governments-WEST (CSG-WEST) provides a nonpartisan platform for regional cooperation among the legislatures of the 13 western states, creating opportunities for legislators and staff to share ideas and experiences as well as institutional linkages with other elected political leaders throughout the region. Based in California where it was founded 64 years ago, CSG-WEST’s membership is composed of the legislatures of Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Associate members include the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia and the Pacific islands of American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and Guam. Programs The Western Legislative Conference brings together legislators from western states to learn from each other and collaborate on issues of regional concern such as water, public lands, energy, and transportation. The Western Legislative Academy is an intensive professional development program designed to support newer western state legislators to become more effective leaders and to strengthen legislative institutions. WESTRENDS is a regional leadership board comprised of one legislator from each western state that addresses demographic, economic and cultural trends shaping the West. The Legislative Service Agency and Research Directors Committee provides nonpartisan western staff leaders management training and opportunity to share best practices. Projects The U.S.-Mexico State Alliance Partnership is a collaborative, multi-branch program aimed at strengthening cooperation among state officials and institutions of both countries. The Partnership promotes and convenes binational exchanges among border legislators, attorneys general, treasurers, Lt. Governors and other officials to enhance the role of state officials to address shared public policy concerns that transcend international borders. Pursuing cooperative solutions to issues that arise along the 2000-mile U.S.-Mexican border is the focus of the Border Legislative Conference, which is composed of state legislators from California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and the six Mexican border states of Baja California, Sonora, Chihuahua, Nuevo Leon, Coahuila and Tamaulipas. CSG-WEST acts as a convener for the Legislative Council on River Governance, a cooperative association of legislators from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana on water, environment and energy issues along the Columbia River Basin. CSG-WEST joined the Wyoming Legislature as a co-sponsor of the Western States Energy and Environment Symposium that brought together legislative leaders and energy committee chairs from all 13 western states to discuss the West’s energy future. One of the out-boxes for the final report will be the CSG-WEST Energy and Environment Committee. The Modernization and Strengthening of the Capacity of the Western Electrical Grid is a project in cooperation with the Western Governors’ Association and the U.S. Department of Energy that will provide substantial financial support for western state legislator involvement in the policy decisions affecting transmission of electrical power that impacts eleven western states as well as British Columbia and Alberta in Canada and northern Baja California in Mexico.

  • Voting Record on Voting Record Small Business Issues 2016 Edition
    2016 | Wyoming YOUR LEGISLATORS’ VOTING RECORD ON VOTING RECORD SMALL BUSINESS ISSUES 2016 EDITION 2015–16 SESSION: Floor votes by your state legislators on key small business issues are listed inside. The Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting, nor does it represent a complete profile of a legislator, but it can be a guide in evaluat- ing a legislator’s attitude toward small business. Many issues affecting small business are decided in committees and never make it to the floor of the House or Senate. Unfortunately, there were not enough contrasting Senate floor votes to develop a voting record that provided any insight into a legislator’s level of support for small business issues. Please thank those legislators who supported small business and continue to work with those who have fallen short. 2015 4.

  • 6.0 Consultation and Coordination
    Chokecherry and Sierra Madre Final EIS Chapter 6.0 – Consultation and Coordination 6-1 6.0 Consultation and Coordination This EIS was conducted in accordance with NEPA requirements, CEQ regulations, and the DOI and BLM policies and procedures implementing NEPA. NEPA and the associated laws, regulations, and policies require the BLM to seek public involvement early in, and throughout, the planning process to develop a reasonable range of alternatives to PCW’s Proposed Action and prepare environmental documents that disclose the potential impacts of alternatives considered. Public involvement and agency consultation and coordination, which have been at the heart of the process leading to this draft EIS, were achieved through FR notices, public and informal meetings, individual contacts, media releases, and the project website. From the initial proposal of the project, the public and agencies have been approached for input on the project scope and development, as discussed in Chapter 1.0. This chapter describes this public involvement process as well as other key consultation and coordination. 6.1 Agency Participation and Coordination Specific regulations require the BLM to coordinate and consult with federal, state, and local agencies about the potential of the project and alternatives to affect sensitive environmental and human resources. The BLM initiated these coordination and consultation activities through the scoping process and has maintained them through regular meetings regarding key topics (e.g., alternatives and impact analyses)
