Karl was elected as secretary of the Natural Resources and Energy Law Section of the Colorado Bar Association at a meeting held May 15 at the University Club in Denver. The NREL Section, as the name suggests, covers a wide variety of issues, including energy, oil, gas, mining and public land law. Karl will serve on the Executive Council for the section, which produces continuing legal education programs, networking opportunities and assistance to section members. “I look forward to an opportunity to help ‘energize’ the section,” Karl said, following the meeting. “I also look forward to working cooperatively with other sections such as the water law section, real estate section and agricultural law section in an effort to provide comprehensive access to information to our members. I also look forward to adding a small bit of a ‘Boulder-awareness’ to the section as well.”

Karl’s one-year term will end in May of 2015.
