-Caveat Lector- People
Residents of ANWR Support The residents of Kaktovik, the only people living on the Coastal Plain of ANWR, support oil and gas development in their 'back yard'. Alaska's indigenous people have benefited greatly from North Slope production. In addition to providing a tax base for the local government, oil development has provided jobs, funding for water and sewer systems and schools. Native and village corporations with oil field-related subsidiaries are working on the North Slope, and the local government has a voice in permitting and environmental regulation. Organizations representing the residents of the Coastal Plain and surrounding area such as the City of Kaktovic, Kaktovik Inupiat Corporation, North Slope Borough, Arctic Slope Regional Corp., Doyon Regional Corporation and Alaskan Federation of Natives have all endorsed development based on their experience with Prudhoe Bay. Alaska State Senator Al Adams Favors Oil Development Statement by North Slope Borough Mayor Benjamin P. Nageak on ANWR Development Position of Arctic Slope Regional Corporation on Development of the Coastal Plain of ANWR Alaskans Support Development More than 75% percent of Alaskans support exploration and production on the Coastal Plain of ANWR. Polling conducted in April of 1995 by the Dittman Research Corporation demonstrated that a vast majority of Alaskans support opening ANWR to oil and gas exploration. Arctic Power, the non-profit citizens organization representing Alaskans promoting Coastal Plain development, has over 10,000 members and endorsements from groups spanning the economic spectrum including miners, fishermen, tourism operators, labor unions, banks, teachers and many others. Alaska groups supporting ANWR development The State of Alaska receives 85% of its annual revenue from oil taxes and royalties, helping to fund education, infrastructure and needed community projects. Recognizing Alaska's dependency on resource development, Alaska's Congressional Delegation, Governor's Office, Alaska Legislature, and many city governments have endorsed Arctic Power, a non-profit citizens organization formed for the sole purpose of advocating for the development of ANWR. The board and staff of Arctic Power work closely with them to coordinate the congressional education and outreach efforts across the country.
