Summary

TABLE OF CONTENTS: Title I: Alaska Power Administration Sale Act Title II: Trans-Alaska Pipeline Amendment Act of 1995 Title I: Alaska Power Administration Sale Act - Authorizes the Secretary of Energy to sell: (1) the Snettisham Hydroelectric Project to the State of Alaska Power Authority; and (2) the Eklutna Hydroelectric Project to the Municipality of Anchorage, the Chugach Electric Association, Inc., and the Matanuska Electric Association, Inc. Directs the Secretary to deposit sale proceeds into the miscellaneous receipts of the Treasury. Authorizes appropriations to prepare or acquire Eklutna and Snettisham assets for sale and conveyance. Declares that both Projects shall continue to be exempt from Federal Power Act requirements (subject to a certain Memorandum of Agreement). Grants jurisdiction to the U.S. District Court for the District of Alaska to review and enforce such Memorandum, including the remedy of specific performance. Directs the Secretary of the Interior to: (1) issue rights-of-way with respect to certain Eklutna lands to the Alaska Power Administration for subsequent reassignment to the Eklutna Purchasers; and (2) convey to the State of Alaska (with respect to certain Eklutna and Snettisham lands) improved lands under certain statutory selection entitlements. Title II: Trans-Alaska Pipeline Amendment Act of 1995 - Amends the Trans-Alaska Pipeline Authorization Act to authorize the export of certain Alaskan North Slope oil. Mandates that such oil be transported in U.S. documented vessels owned by U.S. citizens. Declares that this Act does not restrict the President's authority to prohibit the exportation of such oil. Amends the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to require the President to indicate periodically whether independent refiners in Petroleum Administration District 5 have been unable to secure adequate crude oil supplies as a result of Alaskan North Slope crude oil exports in the prior calendar year. Instructs the Comptroller General to review and report to certain congressional committees on the effects of Alaskan North Slope crude oil exports upon West Coast consumers, independent refiners, and shipbuilding and ship repair yards.
