“We support and pray for the Ukrainian people as they defend themselves against these brazen acts of aggression by Russia and President Putin, which we condemn in the strongest terms possible. The United States and its allies must stand together in support of Ukraine and hold Russia accountable for its unprovoked attacks. This international crisis underscores the importance of U.S. energy security and increasing American production so we can sell energy to our friends and allies versus buying it from our enemies. Our thoughts also are with those of Ukrainian heritage here in North Dakota who are concerned for the safety of their relatives as their homeland is under siege, as well as those North Dakota farmers and businesses with interests in Ukraine.”

“The Land Board respects the 2021 legislative process that set the statute of limitations in House Bill 1080, and we have decided not to challenge the constitutionality of that legislation, which means disputed payments originating prior to Aug. 1, 2013, will not be pursued,” said Gov. Doug Burgum, who chairs the Land Board. “The board has a fiduciary responsibility to drive investment in, and maximize returns on, state-owned land and minerals for the benefit of North Dakota citizens. The Land Board recognized that the 67th Legislative Assembly determined that pursuing disputed, decades-old royalty payments was counterproductive to that goal when they passed HB 1080. Furthermore, pursuing these old, disputed royalty payments would continue to discourage needed investment in our oil and gas industry, risking significant tax revenues that support North Dakota schools, cities, counties, water infrastructure, research, outdoor recreation and the Legacy Fund.”
