But a source said Krepp has been assigned to the Office of the Secretary as special counsel to the DOT general counsel.
She was officially sworn in as MarAd’s chief counsel in September 2009. Prior to joining the agency, Krepp served as senior counsel for the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security. Her portfolio included maritime and surface transportation security and homeland defense. She also worked for the Department of Homeland Security’s Transportation Security Administration from 2002 to 2005.
