Hi, good afternoon.

Uh Chair Johnson and Assembly members.

Thank you for your service to municipality of Anchorage and the opportunity to introduce myself today.

My name is Jennifer Tungle, or I go by Jen.

Um, and I recently assumed the role of senior vice president of Alaska for Matson in August 2025.

In this position, I have the privilege to oversee all of Matson's Alaska operations, including terminal operations, customer service, sales, finance, you name it.

That's it's me.

Um I also am the chair of Matson's community giving committee, which focuses on community and engagement.

I was raised in Alaska, so Anchorage is a little bit colder for me.

Um I've been part of Matson's Alaska team since 2002, serving in a variety of roles from finance to operations and labor relations.

So primary labor negotiator for Matson.

I moved from Unalaska to Anchorage in 2019 to serve as a vice president of operations.

Beyond my work at Matson, I also serve as the municipality's camp chair recently.

And since moving to Anchorage, I've served on the YWCA board, the Covenant House board, and the Awake Board.

One is and currently in medical school through WAMI.

And my youngest who keeps me the busiest with basketball is at Loom and Chrissy.

Welcome.

And we're excited to, or we look forward to to work and we do in this new role.

Are there any questions from the members?

No, thank you.

All right.

Well I expect we'll see you uh we'll see you soon.

Great to meet you.

All right with that we'll go ahead on to our our next item uh an update on the Port of Alaska modernization project.

Good morning assembly members my name is Eric Adams the Jacobs program manager uh supporting the Port of Alaska and the Muni and delivering the PAM.

Uh today's presentation is just a really quick update of what's going on with Terminal One.

And if you guys have any additional questions more than happy to answer them for you.

So it's just a quick little slide show us some photos there.

So terminal one construction one of the big things that everybody's focused on is making sure we get the mirror out of Fonzy slash EA.

All indications we should have that by the end of this month, which is a huge win that basically means permitting is complete for T1 and T2 uh and that's a huge win going forward.

We have piling fabrication ongoing we also started the pre-cast element fabrication began earlier this month.

We're working with the contractor and Matson to coordinate construction work and container operations.

And also just a reminder the construction notice to proceed is March 2026 uh March 15th actually and we will be proceeding with work and on the site on that day.

On the slide member uh Baldwin Yeah for for those who might be listening who um think that Fonzi is a uh Latin hip hop artist would you tell us what Fonzi stands for modern great question through the chair um Fonzi stands for finding of no significant impact basically is uh no impact to the environment or the blue uh any of those items that could be harmed by construction activities.
