Alaska Gov. Frank Murkowski said Thursday Natural Resources Commissioner Tom Irwin agreed to quit his job after questioning the legality of the governor’s negotiations with producers on an agreement for a gas pipeline to the Lower 48 states.

Six other high ranking members of the Department of Natural Resources also quit their jobs after hearing of Irwin’s departure. All six referred in their resignations letters to Irwin’s “dismissal.”
