Name: John Schuh Agency: Public Service Commission Telephone: 7013282421 Date Prepared: 01/15/2019 2019 SENATE ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES SB 2261 2019 SENATE STANDING COMMITTEE MINUTES Energy and Natural Resources Committee Fort Lincoln Room, State Capitol SB 2261 1/24/2019 Job Number 31365 ☐ Subcommittee ☐ Conference Committee Committee Clerk: Marne Johnson Explanation or reason for introduction of bill/resolution: A bill relating to mitigating adverse direct and indirect environmental impacts. Minutes: 6 Attachments Attendance was taken, a quorum was present, the hearing was opened. Chair Unruh, District 33: Introduced the bill. Please see attachment #1. (1:15-7:05) The conversation in the interim revolved around whether we should be requiring these payments in order for the Public Service Commission (PSC) to approve a project. The intent behind my bill was to make sure we were not requiring companies to pay indirect environmental impact mitigation payments. It is not something that has a scientific process behind it. The legislation attempts to disallow indirect payments for environmental impacts and directs the funds to the Outdoor Heritage Fund (OHF), whether or not that is the correct place to put those funds once they are required is something up for debate. This problem arose because I feel like the authority assumed by some of our agencies was overstepped. I do not think the solution to government intrusion is more government. Senator Schaible: These payments are vast amounts of money. Is that right? Chair Unruh: Yes, that third page list a payment of half a million dollars. Senator Schaible: I would agree that indirect mitigation is very tough to do and shouldn’t be allowed, but does your bill do that? Is indirect impact allowed in your bill? Chair Unruh: What I was hoping to do, and I think I have done is allow for PSC to still consider direct and indirect environmental impacts. The language in section 1 says that the Commission may not require payment to assess adverse indirect environmental or wildlife impacts. Just trying to disallow those indirect payments, but still allow a pathway for the direct payments. Senator Piepkorn: Please define or describe indirect environment impacts? Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee SB 2261 1/24/19 Page 2 Chair Unruh: That is what I was talking about in my testimony, they are a very difficult thing to quantify. We have some other folks that will be talking about those. Direct is easy, if you take out a tree, you put a tree back. But indirect outside that corridor can get you into things that are mostly regulated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, whether it’s the endangered Species Act, and the impacts of an activity here affecting some specific species over here.

A candidate who did not return the questionnaire or scored poorly did not get support regardless of party affiliation. The following is a list of candidates that met the threshold established by the PAC Committee to be endorsed by Boilermakers Local 647. I would also like to thank all the members that took the time to attend the PAC meetings and stepped up. Your participation was very much appreciated.

  • Senate Bill 2166 Is the Association's Retail Theft Enhancement
    March 12, 2021 Senate Bill 2166 is the Association’s retail theft enhancement bill. SB 2166 passed the Senate by a 46-0 vote. It was heard in House Judiciary this past week. Your joint association was well represented in the hearing by AG Stenehjem and several NDRA board members. This group did a great job of stressing the need for stiffening the penalties related to retail theft. Key points of the bill include: A BILL for an Act to amend and reenact sections 12.1-23-05 and 12.1-23-10 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to theft offenses; and to provide a penalty; and to declare an emergency. Theft under this chapter of property or services of a value not exceeding five hundred dollars is a class B misdemeanor for a first offense A second or third , or fourth offense under paragraph 1 of subdivision a occurring within three years is a class A misdemeanor. A fifth fourth or subsequent violation under paragraph 1 of subdivision a occurring within three years is a class C felony. Bottom line: The goal of this bill is to stop the repeat offenders. The threat of the Class C felony is the key deterrent. Chairman Klemin appointed Reps. Hanson, Vetter and Becker to a subcommittee to discuss possible amendments. These include: • Changing the word “offense” to “conviction”. • Putting into the language a municipal court judge clearly inform those arrested of the new changes in statute when this bill becomes law. • There’s also discussion of reinstating the language saying a fifth or subsequent violation would incur the Class C Felony.

  • 2021 FPA-ND Legislative Scorecard
    2021 NORTH DAKOTA LEGISLATIVE REPORT CARD 67th LEGISLATIVE SESSION ABOUT THE SCORECARD We are pleased to share this scorecard for the 2021 North Dakota state legislative session. This is a snapshot of how lawmakers voted on key social and moral legislation related to life, education, family, religious freedom, and similar issues. Guided by our mission of building a state where God is honored, religious freedom flourishes, families thrive, and life is cherished, the scorecard focuses on seven bills. This scorecard is not an endorsement of any candidate or political party. It does not measure any lawmakers’ integrity, commitment to their faith, work ethic, or rapport with Family Policy Alliance of North Dakota. It is only a report on how each lawmaker voted. Please continue to hold our legislators accountable for their voting records and please pray that they may always vote in ways that uphold your biblical values as they make important decisions for our state. Sincerely, Mark Jorritsma Executive Director, Family Policy Alliance of North Dakota HOW WE FIGURED THE GRADES A bill is typically passed by a simple majority in the Senate (24 votes out of 47 senators) and the House (48 votes out of 94 Representatives.) Lawmakers earned percentage grades ranging from 0% to 100%, based upon dividing the candidate’s number of good votes cast by the number of total bills he/she voted on. The higher the score, the better their ranking. Not all lawmakers voted on every bill; the number of absences on these key bills is also noted and we encourage you to review whether your legislator actually voted on these important bills.

  • Aicpa Fall Meeting of Council by Patrick Kautzman, AICPA Council Member
    January 2019 | Volume XXXVI | No. 1 aicpa fall meeting of council By Patrick Kautzman, AICPA Council Member Since TCJA passed last December, we have heard from a multitude of professionals with varying levels of concern regarding the continued existence of the food and beverage deduction in light of the fate of entertainment expenses. Well, Notice 2018-76, issued October 3, 2018, clarifies that taxpayers generally may continue to deduct 50% of the food and beverage expenses associated with operating their trade or business. Professional Issues Update by Barry Meloncon, President and CEO of AICPA Barry’s professional issues update included his recurring reminders of the rapid pace of innovation and disruption in our world and our industry. • Since the year 2000, 41% of S&P consumer-centric companies have been acquired 2019 or gone out of business and 39% of the 5th to 85th largest firms no longer exist as standalone firms. Conference dates • The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report shows that of the top 10 de- clining jobs by 2022, #2 is Accounting, Bookkeeping, and Payroll Clerks and #7 is Accountants and Auditors. Barry’s response: They are referring to an industry that Management Conference is unwilling to change and adapt! He broke a future ready strategy down into 3 parts: May 22-23 • Technology – Master it before it masters you Fargo Holiday Inn • Trust – Build on CPAs expertise • Talent – Think broader Summer variety pack Technology – CPAs must embrace “Software as a Service” through client accounting June 17-19 services and virtual CFO services, “Big Data and Analytics”, “Artificial Intelligence” through Bismarck Ramkota machine learning and virtual assistance, and “Blockchain”.
