Agrium task force meeting delayed

The Governor’s Agrium Task Force cancelled its June 29 meeting, which will delay delivery of the final task force recommendations to Alaska Gov. Frank Murkowski for a week or two.

Conflicts with schedules of task force members will shift the meeting to mid-summer, according to Bill Popp, task force co-chair.

Popp said he and co-chair Bob Favretto are aiming for a high level of participation at the upcoming meeting because the panel will be approving and issuing its final recommendations.
