Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon will serve as the next chair of Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission.
The governor was nominated during a business session of the IOGCC on May 17. He will succeed the current chair, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt, in October.
The IOGCC is a multi-state government agency chartered by the U.S. Congress in 1935. It includes 38 member states and serves as the states’ collective voice on oil and gas issues, as well as advocating for state leadership in governing oil and gas resources. The commission works with states, Congress and the environmental community to gather information and viewpoints to assist with developing sound regulatory practices.
Governor Gordon said in a statement that he looks forward to leading state-led efforts that champion emerging technologies, regulatory issues and resource stewardship.
