17 NATIONAL ACCREDITATION ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY The Midland Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce its national accreditation from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber board has worked closely with the staff since the fall of 2014 to achieve this milestone. While there are over 7,000 chambers of commerce in the U.S., only 3% (just over 200 chambers) are accredited. This achievement highlights the Chamber s dedication and commitment to be the best resource possible for Midland s business community. In 2014, our board of directors worked diligently to develop a strategic plan for the organization. This document gives a clear framework to achieve the Midland Chamber s vision of, Creating the Best Business Climate on the Planet! said President and CEO, Bobby Burns. To further our mission, the board has been invaluable in guiding our chamber to examine all areas of our programs and events. This, in turn, allowed us to pursue accreditation. We are pleased to announce that we are now a member of such a small and prestigious group. Accreditation validates the Midland Chamber of Commerce as having programs that benefit their local economy and for positively influencing action in their community, said Raymond P. Towle, IOM, CAE, Vice President, Federation Relations and Institute for Organization Management. We applaud the Midland Chamber of Commerce for advancing the principles of free enterprise. Accreditation is the only national program that recognizes chambers for their effective organizational procedures and community involvement. In order to receive Accreditation, a chamber must meet minimum standards in their operations and programs, including areas of governance, government affairs, and technology. This extensive self-review can take 6-9 months to complete. 15

28 BUSINESS & INDUSTRY INDUSTRY DIVERSIFICATION A MULTI-FACETED, BUT FOCUSED, APPROACH TO GROWTH James Durbin There is no question the energy industry played a leading role in making Midland a boomtown, but city leaders and economic development organizations know that to ensure continued growth, diversification is crucial. Building on the strong foundation of the oil and gas fields, Midland leaders are focused on branching out into complementary sectors such as alternative energy, aerospace and aviation, manufacturing, logistics, health care, and education. The city is also committed to revitalizing its city center, repurposing older buildings, green-lighting new hotels and adding mixed-use complexes. Hotel Santa Rita and the Wall Street Lofts, Phase 2, are two of the ongoing projects that promise to breathe new life into downtown and attract more visitors and residents. ENERGY The oil and gas industry has a long and successful history in Midland. Home to 12 of the 17 top-producing oil and gas counties in Texas, the Permian Basin is responsible for 60 percent of Texas crude production, 16 percent of U.S. crude production, and 17 percent of Texas and U.S. gas production. It also has 50 percent of the active rigs in Texas and 25 percent of the active rigs in the nation. Midland s prime Texas Plains location is ideal for soaking up sunshine and capturing wind. Its large expanse of available acreage make it a prime spot for both solar and wind power generation. The Permian Basin is the leader in wind and solar energy development in both the state of Texas and the nation. With over 11 electric generation plants and 11 wind power farms and more under development, the region is on track to expand wind power generation. The city contributed startup funds to Texas Tech University to form the National Institute for Renewable Energy (NIRE), an independent public-private collaboration that works to solve key scientific It s more than just aword.

29 BUSINESS & INDUSTRY and technology challenges facing the wind power industry. A $7 billion project to connect the wind of West Texas and the Panhandle to big cities where power is consumed has opened up large energy markets that previously relied on nearby power plants. AEROSPACE AND AVIATION The aerospace and aviation industry is also taking off in a big way. The investment the MDC has made in relocating XCOR and Orbital Outfitters from California to Midland is part of the agency s ongoing commitment to recruiting more space industry companies to West Texas. A key milestone in that commitment was getting the FAA to designate Midland International Airport as a Space Port, opening the door to hosting suborbital launches. After receiving the Space Port designation, the airport officially changed its name to Midland International Air and Space Port. XCOR Aerospace was a key partner is obtaining the Space Port license. XCOR s Commercial Spaceflight Research and Development Center headquarters will be one of the first tenants at the Space Port upon completion of renovations on an existing hangar. The XCOR Lynx is a piloted, two-seat, rocket-powered spacecraft that takes off and lands horizontally, and it will propel passengers to space and back. Now that the license has been issued we can get on with the next steps of completing hangar renovations and developing all the procedures we will need to integrate spaceflight into airport operations and airspace, explained Jeff Greason, XCOR s chief technology officer. MDC has invested $11.5 million for XCOR s relocation to Midland, including $1.5 million for the renovations of the hangar at Midland International Air and Space Port.

According to Jeff Feige, CEO at Orbital Outfitters, the company is broadening the scope of its services beyond spacesuits. The MACC facility will not only be used for Orbital Outfitters own research and testing efforts; it will also be made available to other companies for testing of other components, such as small satellites. There are other companies offering similar types of testing, but none of them is able to offer the visibility to observers that the MACC will, and they won t be able to decompress as rapidly and with as much capability as we re going to have with this new facility, explained Feige. The Orbital Outfitters facility is adjacent to the XCOR Aerospace Research and Development Center at the Midland Air and Space Port. The two firms have worked closely in the past, with Orbital designing a spacesuit for XCOR and constructing a full-scale mockup of XCOR s Lynx. MDC approved an investment of $7 million on the vacuum testing facility, which the agency will own and Orbital Outfitters will manage and operate. MDC is also covering construction costs for the company s new headquarters and relocation expenses. MANUFACTURING The energy industry isn t the only driver of manufacturing in the region.

A SHORT HISTORY OF MIDLAND Midland was originally founded in 1881 as a railroad town known as Midway Station because of the convenient location halfway between Ft. Worth and El Paso. The city later changed its name to Midland in 1884 to acquire a new post office, and was made the county seat in 1885 when Midland County was organized. Prior to World War I, the town served the surrounding ranching community primarily as a cattle shipping and regional financial center. On May 27, 1923, the future of Midland changed forever when the Santa Rita oil well blew. Thousands of investors and workers poured into the new boomtown, and by 1929 there were 36 oil companies operating in Midland. Petroleum products still play a large role in the economy, with the Permian Basin said to contain 25 percent of the nation s oil reserves. Nicknamed The Tall City for its impressive downtown skyline and boasting a city population of over 123,000, Midland today has become a multi-faceted economy with bright prospects for the future. 59
