    Michael Coveyou recipient of Ink Public Service Award at Iowa State

  • Michael Coveyou, regulatory assistance coordinator with the Iowa Department of Public Safety, has been named the 2007 Dwight Ink Public Service Award Winner at Iowa State University.
    Iowa State's Public Policy and Administration Program presented Coveyou the award at a ceremony held Friday, May 4, on campus.

    Coveyou has worked at the Iowa Department of Public Safety since 1979, beginning as the department's statistician. For 11 years he served as the department's spokesman regarding crime statistics and trends.

    Today the core of Cuveyou's duties is responsibility for all of the department's administrative rulemaking. He also serves as a point of contact for individuals and organizations that are trying to establish their responsibilities for compliance with the department's rules. He is also a liaison with other regulatory agencies to assist people in negotiating the complexities of identifying and compliance with regulatory requirements across state agencies.

    The Dwight Ink Public Service Award honors Dwight Ink, an Iowa State alumnus who served every U.S. president from Eisenhower through Reagan. Throughout his public service, Ink had responsibilities for organizing past federal departments and agencies.

    The award is given to a public manager in Iowa who exemplifies the highest standards of dedication to public service and are characterized by their leadership abilities, their passion for their work, their high professional standards and the respect they are given by their peers.
