Nenana Fuel Co. v. Venetie (7/24/92), 834 P 2d 1229 Nenana Fuel subsequently obtained a stay of appeal, claiming that it had discovered new evidence which indicated that the Tribal Government and the Village Corporation had misrepresented their history to the court, and that they were not sovereign entities. Nenana Fuel replied that the Tribal Government and the Village Corporation had waived any sovereign immunity by failing to raise that defense during the pendency of the underlying suit, and that the Village Corporation had also waived any sovereign immunity by including a "sue and be sued" clause in its corporate charter. Nenana Fuel argued that the Village Corporation's waiver was a general one, and that suit in state superior court was therefore proper. touchngo.com /sp/html/sp-3869.htm   (11460 words)

The Nenana Ice Classic: Betting on Warming Since the Nenana temperature record was too fragmented to mean anything, with a big 15-year gap around 1980, the authors really had no excuse for using 1949 as a start date for determining trends since the Fairbanks and University record above covers the full period of ice breakup data. Apart from the fact that it must be difficult to tell from visual observation alone whether river ice ice is being broken up through melt or is breaking up under the strain of mechanical forces from upstream, the authors appear to have been only listening to what they wanted to hear from the residents. It is clear from the Nenana Ice Classic data that there has been a slight trend toward earlier breakup dates, but nothing nearly as significant as that claimed by the authors - and hardly justifying a paper about it in a major journal. www.john-daly.com /nenana.htm   (2964 words)
