Timely, Transparent Information is the Goal for OFC Communications

WASHINGTON, DC -- You may not find rare auction items or streaming video of reality television shows, but the newly launched website of the Office of the Federal Coordinator for Alaska Natural Gas Transportation Projects [OFC] promises to provide timely and transparent information about what is potentially North America’s largest private construction project.

The website, which can be found at www.arcticgas.gov, was retooled and re-launched on December 31 featuring a fresh look, improved navigation and more comprehensive information. The revamped website is part of the OFC’s continuing process to improve its communications and to be a reliable reference source about the gasline project and the OFC.

Those interested in the natural gas pipeline can find the latest data and news, connect with OFC staff, find links to stakeholder websites, check a blog and subscribe to OFC press releases, newsletters and reports.

Two new federal reports have just been posted to the site – the OFC Strategic Plan 2010-2011 and the Performance and Accountability Report for Fiscal Year 2009.

The Office of the Federal Coordinator for Alaska Natural Gas Transportation Projects (OFC) was established by Congress to expedite and coordinate federal permitting and construction of a pipeline to deliver natural gas from the North Slope of Alaska to North American markets. The OFC coordinates with over 24 federal agencies, Canadian government agencies, the State of Alaska (which leases all the known natural gas reserves and owns portions of the right of way), tribal governments, project stakeholders and other interested parties.
