Comment: Please consider-
AIDEA sold us (Interior residents through our GVEA Cooperative) the failed Healy 2 Coal plant for $44 MILLION dollars. Tens of millions have been wasted and it still isn't operational. 

They sold us Fairbanks Natural Gas. AIDEA paid what many considered a very inflated price for it, $52 MILLION. They then tacked on $6 MILLION and sold it to us for the grand bargain of $58 MILLION.  (remember that our legislature donated $50 MILLION each to four private refineries and the closed private Agrium Fertilizer plant) For Interior residents of Alaska, we got an "enviable loan package". We will be paying for this "loan" for decades. Affordable gas contracts are not in place and we wait to hear if there will be any help to connect. 

Now, some AIDEA members are supporting the road to Ambler. We should be scrutinizing this support. Our track record with AIDEA does not inspire confidence.  Scrap the road to Ambler before we are sucked into another boondoggle we can't afford.
