AOGA hires new regulatory affairs rep

The Alaska Oil and Gas Association said Aug. 30 that it has hired Kate Williams as its regulatory affairs representative.

Williams, an attorney, was born and raised in Juneau, and spent most of her career in public policy serving as staff to former U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens. Williams was the senator’s legislative director and chief counsel during the last two and a half years of his Senate career. For the past year and a half, Williams has been an associate attorney with Birch, Horton, Bittner and Cherot.

As AOGA’s regulatory affairs representative, Williams is based in Anchorage and will be responsible for issues related to local, state and federal regulations and regulatory programs affecting Alaska’s oil and gas industry with a particular focus on environmental issues.

AOGA Executive Director Marilyn Crockett said Williams’ “experience and background will be a nice complement to our staff.”

Williams graduated from Juneau-Douglas High School and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a law degree from the University of San Diego.
