The Tanker Rebecca Incident: Alaska Comes of Age as an Oil State - Doug Baily
Doug Baily was the Attorney General of Alaska from 1989 to 1990 under Gov. Steve Cowper. Before that, he served as administrative assistant to Governor Jay Hammond and as a trustee of the Alaska Permanent Fund. Before becoming a lawyer in 1965, Doug engaged in oil exploration in Alaska. From 1968 to 1971, he was the U.S. Attorney for the District of Alaska and was responsible for designing and conducting the state's legal case against the Rebecca and her captain in 1968. The Exxon Valdez oil spill on March 24, 1989, occurred during his tenure as AG. After the spill, Attorney General Baily filed multiple court cases against Exxon Corporation and the Alyeska Pipeline Service Company. Doug now lives in Homer with his wife, Landa, after moving back to Alaska from Oakland, Oregon, where they maintained the Old Baily Heritage Farm, raising rare breeds of American Livestock, including Myotonic Goats, Dexter Cattle, and American Guinea Hogs.
