I don't think that the oil corporations should have to let their plans be known to the state, especially since the state plans on being a competitor. The leases were paid for and unless the lease contract specifically requires that company plans be totally exposed to the state, it should not be a requirement to do so now.

On a personal note: I believe that until every village and town in this state has access to natural gas, none of it should be shipped and sold out side of the state. Maybe that requirement should be written into law for our own government, let alone in any future leases! If Alaska is really an owner state, then the same should apply to all natural resources. It's just taking care of the citizens first like governments should be doing!
