Williston, have passed new or expanded
school projects that will help accommodate
the growing number of families moving
into the state. This is important for the
state and it is important for the industry
because it is starting to get the amenities
it needs to attract good, dependable workers and their families. This will help fill
some of the service jobs open in many of
the new retail establishments that are
flourishing in these busy, vibrant communities.
These are great milestones marking
North Dakota's progress, but there is still
much more to do to support western communities. That is why in the 2015 legislative session, NDPC's top priority will
be adjusting the oil tax distribution formula
so more oil revenues are returned to the
counties bearing the brunt of industry
impacts. NDPC will kick off these efforts
by pushing to pass an $800 million surge
funding plan that was proposed by state
legislators within the first 30 days of the
legislative session.
Returning more of the oil tax revenues
to communities is critical over the next
few years as employees make decisions
on whether to make these communities
their homes. New infrastructure will improve the quality of life in western North
Dakota and benefit the entire state as

communities catch up and continue their
contribution to a growing, diversified
statewide economy.
Few states have been given the opportunity-especially in the midst of a
stagnant national economy-to reinvent
themselves the way North Dakota has.
In order to capitalize on that opportunity,

however, western North Dakota counties
and communities need our support. We
urge all producers and service companies
working in North Dakota to get involved
this legislative session and let decision
makers know we are standing behind our
friends and neighbors in western North
Dakota.

FROM THE CHAIRMAN
I would like to take a moment to reflect
on all the events that occurred with OOGA
in 2014.
The association actually moved into
its new offices in downtown Columbus'
KeyBank Building back in 2013. However,
we settled into our new office in 2014,
and I must say the transition has worked

out very well. Given the political climate
in Columbus, close proximity to the statehouse has been very helpful.
We had several staff changes in 2014.
Pete McKenzie, vice president of operations, left for the private sector. Anne
Carto, communications coordinator, left
to take a job in Denver. Amanda Bowers,
