EMPLOYMENT FORECAST FOR 2017

Military plans will soften some Fairbanks lossBy ALYSSA RODRIGUES

The Fairbanks North Star Borough’s employment levels have been up and down over the past decade. Since

the 2012 peak, though, the trend has been mostly down, with the excep on of a scant 0.3 percent gain in 2015.

In 2016, employment fell by 1.9 percent, bringing Fairbanks back to 2006 levels. A similar loss of 2.0 percent is forecasted for 2017. (See exhibits 1 and 2.)

Like the rest of the state, Fairbanks’ job loss-es are related to the decline in oil prices. The borough has a few opportuni es for growth in 2017, though, including a massive invest-ment in Eielson Air Force Base as it prepares to house two long-awaitedF-35s.

Military to gain al tude Growth is s ll the long term outlook for Fairbanks’ military bases. Prepara on for the F-35s at Eielson will require more than $500 million and 38 new buildings, beginning in 2017 with $150 million in design and construc on contracts awarded in me for the summer 2017 construc on season. The re-maining $350 million will be awarded for the 2018 and 2019 construc on seasons, with most of the construc- on planned for 2018.

Fort Wainwright will also gain a $47 million hangar for its drones, a proj-ect slated to begin this year. Drone hangars are typically equipped with cranes, maintenance and shop areas, and fl ight plan-ning facili es.

Although ac ve duty military numbers aren’t included in this forecast’s data, they’re expected to increase in the near future a er the borough’s military popula- on dropped from 9,200 in 2012 to 8,300 in 2015. The

F-35s’ arrival will bring in about 2,765 new ac ve duty personnel, civilian workers, and their families, which will broadly s mulate Fairbanks’ economy.

Oil cuts seep into construc onAlthough the Fairbanks economy’s founda on is in

state government and the military, the steep drop in the price of oil has hurt the private sector and Fair-banks’ es to the oil industry. Job losses on the North Slope aff ect Fairbanks both directly, as 1,150 Fairbanks residents work there, and indirectly as those jobs gen-erate ac vity in secondary industries such as retail, leisure and hospitality, and u li es — all of which are losing jobs.

Likewise, the borough’s construc on industry has been hurt directly and indirectly by low oil prices. Con n-ued cuts to the state’s capital budget have put a damper on projects, and decreased oil patch ac vity has re-duced employment for construc on companies with North Slope project contracts.

The borough had 14 road and high-way construc on projects in 2016, a

slight increase from the prior year, although they made up just 6 percent of the area’s construc on employ-ment and the gains were off set by sizable losses in pipeline-related construc on.

Addi onal losses are forecasted for 2017 as oil-related industries and the economy as a whole con nue to struggle. Small gains in military construc on projects will mi gate some of the loss, but not enough to push construc on employment growth back into the black.

2016 came from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and more are expected in 2017. Alloca ons to the UAF campuses in the Fairbanks area from the state general fund peaked in state fi scal year 2015 at $162.5 mil-lion and fell in fi scal years 2016 and 2017. (See Exhibit 3.) That decline of $18 million since fi scal year 2015 pushed alloca ons below 2012 funding levels.

At the same me, fi xed opera ng costs have risen, in-cluding u li es, fuel, health care benefi ts, and building maintenance. Increased costs amid shrinking budgets mean decreased employment. UAF has lost more than 200 jobs since its peak in 2013 and will con nue to cut jobs in 2017.

Nonuniversity state employment has decreased as well. Fairbanks’ losses have been modest compared to other areas of the state but will deepen in 2017. Com-bined, state government will shrink by another 200 jobs this year.

Secondary eff ectson professional servicesThe professional and business services industry con-sists of management and administra ve companies

and companies that engage in scien fi c tes ng, archi-tecture, and engineering. Many of these companies are strongly ed to the oil industry, and decreased investment there means less need for engineers and chemical testers. Likewise, fewer new buildings means job loss for architects and logis cs coordinators.

Drama c reduc ons in the oil industry and the capital budget took a toll on professional and business ser-vices in 2016, resul ng in the loss of 100 jobs. More of the same is expected in 2017 as capital budgets re-main small and low oil prices persist.

Construc on on Eielson Air Force Base and Fort Wain-wright will require some of these services, but these opportuni es aren’t likely to off set all of the losses from oil and construc on cuts.

Visitors up but localconsump on downBed tax collec on increased by 10 percent from 2012 to 2015 (the most recent data available), sugges ng tourism is growing in the Golden Heart City. (See Ex-hibit 4.) However, growth in bed tax in the fi rst half of 2016 did not correlate with employment, as the indus-

try lost about 100 jobs.

While the visitor industry has gained steam since 2012, local demand appears to be fl agging — and in Fair-banks it’s mainly local consump on, not tourism, that drives the leisure and hospitality industry. Leisure and hospitality is forecasted to lose another 100 jobs in 2017, as residents are spending less a er job losses in other industries.

Less demand to dampen retailStores in the borough cut 50 jobs in 2016 as less em-ployment in base industries, such as state govern-ment and the university, reduced consumer spending. People also tend to limit their spending to essen al purchases during tough economic mes.

While most industries’ losses are expected to be about the same as in 2016 or begin to abate, borough retail is expected to take a harder hit this year. Increased ac- vity on the military bases could help somewhat, but

it won’t be enough to maintain current levels of retail employment.

LABOR FORCE DATA

SOURCE: Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Research and Analysis Section, Monthly Employment Statistics (MES); US Census Bureau, American Community Survey (ACS) Estimates; FNSB Community Research Quarterly, Military Population, 2011-2014. NOTE: [1] Because the US Census did not have the self-employment question on the 2010 Census there is no actual data to verify, however, the US Census ACS Estimates are the next best resource, 5-year estimates used for this data. Definition of Employment: These are all persons who, during the reference week (the week including the 12th day of the month), (a) did any work as paid employees, worked in their own business or profession or on their own farm, or worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an enterprise operated by a member of their family, or (b) were not working but who had jobs from which they were temporarily absent because of vacation, illness, bad weather, childcare problems, maternity or paternity leave, labor-management dispute job training, or other family or personal reasons, whether or not they were paid for the time off or were seeking other jobs. Each employed person is counted only once, even if he or she holds more than one job.

SOURCE: Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Research and Analysis Section, Unemployment Data-Fairbanks North Star Borough Labor Force (not seasonally adjusted); FNSB Community Research Quarterly, Military Population, 2011-2014. Definition of Labor Force: Included are all persons in the civilian non-institutional population classified as either employed or unemployed. Definition of Unemployment: Included are all persons who had no employment during the reference week, were available for work, except for temporary illness, and had made specific efforts to find employment some time during the 4 week-period ending with the reference week. Persons who were waiting to be recalled to a job from which they had been laid off need not have been looking for work to be classified as unemployed.

SOURCE: Fairbanks North Star Borough Assessing Department, personal communications, 2002-2017. NOTE: Assessing figures are collected and updated daily but stabilize one quarter after calendar year close and prior to May certification date. The term Multi-family is indicative of structures having more than one residential unit, such as a duplex, triplex, 4-plex, etc. Structures with Mother-in-law apartments are not usually regarded as multi-family. Single Family Residential (SFR) abbreviated above. SFR includes condominiums, and townhouses. In some instances, cabins and mobile homes are viewed as SFR (however, cabins are not necessarily year-round residential units, and mobile homes are not always located on a lot with a foundation). The mobile home classification is typically considered transient stock (because they can easily be relocated). The by Structure count was replaced with a "by unit" count beginning February, 2010. Current data supersedes previous figures reported. * Current year is YTD (year to date) data.

C2ER COST OF LIVING INDEX*

SOURCE: Council for Community and Economic Research (C2ER), Cost of Living Index, Comparative Data for 264 Urban Areas, 2016 Annual Average Data, January 2017. NOTE: This Cost of Living Index does not measure inflation (price change over time). Because each quarterly report is a separate comparison of prices at a single point in time, and because both the number and the mix of participants changes from one quarter to the next, Index data from different quarters cannot be compared. The Index reflects cost differentials for professional and executive households in the top income quintile. For inflation data contact the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) at www.bls.gov. * Item percentages change so please watch for current percentages.

SOURCE: Fairbanks North Star Borough, Air Quality Monitoring Program, personal communications 2010-2015 and Alaska dept. of Environmental, Conservation Division of Air Quality, Monitoring and Quality Assurance Program, personal communications 2017. NOTE: Monitoring for Fairbanks North Star Borough is required by the Federal Clean Air Act. EPA strengthened the air quality standards for particle pollution in 2006. FNSB (PM2.5) data is collected from multiple locations within the borough. The PM-2.5 particulate values are from BAM samplers correlated to a co-located FRM sampler. Additional locations have been added to the original State Building Air Monitoring Station in recent years. The average monthly value, is from the location with the highest particulate value. PM2.5 Definition: PM stands for particulate matter suspended in air. PM followed by a number refers to all particles with a certain maximum size (aerodynamic diameter). All smaller particles are included. PM2.5 is particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of up to 2.5 µm, referred to as the fine particle fraction (which per definition includes the ultrafine particles).

Key Facts You Should Know About Particle Pollution

Particles in the air can cause or aggravate a number of health problems and have been linked with illnesses and deaths from heart or lung diseases. At highest risk from particle pollution are people with heart or lung disease, older adults (possibly because they may have undiagnosed heart or lung disease), and children whose lungs are still developing and who are more likely to have asthma and are more active outdoors. Particles of concern include both very small, "fine" particles (that can only be seen through an electron microscope) and
