Alexandria, VA – EARTH Magazine sits down with Secretary of the Interior Sally

Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, which oversees the offshore development of
both renewable and conventional energy resources.

Secretary Jewell, who began her career as a petroleum engineer, discusses the
role of science in reconciling conflicts in the management of federal lands, and
shares how her transition from the private sector, where she was chief executive
