Gov. Mike Dunleavy has named John Crowther to head up the Alaska Department of Natural Resources. Crowther was appointed acting commissioner last month. His name will now be submitted to the Alaska Legislature for confirmation during the 2026 session.
“John Crowther brings a deep understanding of Alaska’s natural resources and a proven commitment to responsible stewardship,” Dunleavy said, following the Nov. 28 appointment. “His balanced approach to development and conservation makes him an exceptional choice to lead the Department of Natural Resources and serve the long-term interests of Alaskans.”
Crowther said he looks forward to fostering responsible development of the state’s vast natural resources.
“The Department’s constitutional mission to develop, conserve and maximize the use of Alaska’s natural resources is critical to our state,” he said. “I will continue working as hard as I can to advance this mission and improve Alaska’s future through stewardship and responsible use of our resources. I am honored and humbled to accept the Governor’s designation and enthusiastic to lead the dedicated professionals of DNR.”
Crowther first started at the department in 2012 and most recently served as deputy commissioner managing its oil and gas, project permitting, and geological survey divisions. Before re-joining DNR he was Director of the Governor’s Washington, D.C. office and a staffer on the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. He earned his bachelor’s degree in economics from Dartmouth College and juris doctorate from Georgetown University Law Center.

Babilin. Lord have mercy. Have some earl grey tea and take a rest before your heart explodes and leaves your chest.
One thing to remember about this hire by Crime Boss Dunleavy is that he will only hire those who will lie for him. Always the second chance and new thing is laid at the door of a second time around hire into the Crime Boss Dunleavy’s Administration. I’m sure they will concoct many dreamed up issues and circumstances to make good on Crime Boss’ dream things to do.
