Friends of the Capitol 2009-June 2010 Report Our Mission Statement: Friends of the Capitol is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) corporation that is devoted to maintaining and improving the beauty and grandeur of the Oklahoma State Capitol building and showcasing the magnificent gifts of art housed inside. This mission is accomplished through a partnership with private citizens wishing to leave their footprint in our state's rich history. Education and Development In 2009 and 2010 Friends of the Capitol (FOC) participated in several educational and developmental projects informing fellow Oklahomans of the beauty of the capitol and how they can participate in the continuing renovations of Oklahoma State Capitol building. In March of 2010, FOC representatives made a trip to Elk City and met with several organizations within the community and illustrated all the new renovations funded by Friends of the Capitol supporters. Additionally in 2009 FOC participated in the State Superintendent’s encyclo-media conference and in February 2010 FOC participated in the Oklahoma City Public Schools’ Professional Development Day. We had the opportunity to meet with teachers from several different communities in Oklahoma, and we were pleased to inform them about all the new restorations and how their school’s name can be engraved on a 15”x30”paver, and placed below the Capitol’s south steps in the Centennial Memorial Plaza to be admired by many generations of Oklahomans.

We have had so many successes and achievements over the past 12 months, I don’t really know where to begin or end. GPA continues its strive to be the authoritative voice of the midstream industry on behalf of our membership. It seems like just yesterday, we were scrambling to accommodate the biggest turnout for a GPA Convention in recent history. All the while, we were dealing with key legislative and regulatory issues, working on our own policy improvements, continuing research initiatives, growing chapter involvement, being active internationally, planning the 2012 convention and more. And speaking of legislative and regulatory issues, we are particularly proud of the outstanding efforts of our Environmental Committee’s work on the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) RICE MACT and Subpart W issues. Their efforts have decisively challenged EPA into making significant changes to their rulemakings that enormously benefit GPA members. Without the efforts of this committee, GPA member companies would be subject to paying literally hundreds of millions of dollars in additional regulatory expenses. -

Graves Resigns Corporation Commission Seat - 1997
News Release - Graves Resigns Corporation Commission Seat - 1997 News from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission Office of Public Information -- Phone: (405) 521-4180 FAX (405) 521-6945 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Patrick K. Petree Reference: OCC51397-35 Graves Resigns Corporation Commission Seat OKLAHOMA CITY -- Oklahoma Corporation Commissioner Chairman Cody L. Graves announced Tuesday (May 13) that he will resign his seat on the commission effective July 1, the start of the new fiscal year. He said his decision results from an opinion by the Oklahoma attorney general that pay raises granted by the state Legislature in 1995 and 1996 are invalid because elected officials cannot receive salary adjustments during their terms of office. The two adjustments had raised Graves' salary from $50,000 to $76,000, making it equal to the salaries of the other two commissioners. The second adjustment in question raised Commissioner Bob Anthony's salary from $70,000 to $76,000. Commissioner Ed Apple was not affected since he was elected after the commissioners' salary schedule had been increased to the $76,000 level. "The burden and sacrifice of public service always falls on the families of public servants. My family has certainly given a great deal in the last six years. Given the recent attorney general's opinion regarding commissioners' salaries, I cannot ask them to sacrifice any more. It's time for me to give back to my family," Graves said. The Oklahoma Attorney General has filed for a declaratory judgment in district court to validate its opinion. The Corporation Commission will take the position in court that the Legislature's amendments to the commissioners' salaries were proper and constitutional, Jay T. -

Ethics Summary Final(2)
ETHICS COMMISSION REPORT November 2009 SUMMARY After giving the Ethics Commission report to the House of Representatives earlier this afternoon, Governor Sanford has decided to make public that same document as part of his continued efforts to both fully cooperate with the Commission and share as much relevant information with the public as possible. We believe that when the full story is told, it will be clear that this Administration has kept a consistent eye out for the taxpayer. It is important to remember that we are still in the early stages of the ethics process, and that we continue to support the Ethics Commission being able to complete their work and then release all findings to the public. The steps are as follows: first, a preliminary report to determine whether or not there was anything even worth looking at (which was not unexpected as allegations had made headlines for months); next, will come our chance to shed light on any remaining questions when the Commission holds hearings; then, their conclusion will follow. Through this process, we will have the opportunity to show that Governor Sanford has complied fully with the law. For instance, that he has simply followed a legislatively audited and long held practice regarding overseas travel – the same practice accepted over the last 30 years as business class tickets were used by South Carolina Commerce staff, Members of the House and Senate, governors and Secretaries of Commerce on overseas investment trips. We feel vindicated that in this case the issues of probable cause are limited to about three dozen minor, technical matters that do not include any allegations of criminal conduct. -

More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff. Some of these sites pertain to the lives of Oklahoma’s original settlers—the Wichita and Caddo, and perhaps such relative latecomers as the Kiowa Apache, Osage, Kiowa, and Comanche.
