At its October 4 meeting, the Oregon Hanford Cleanup Board and Oregon Department of Energy staff took a moment to thank Board Chair Steve March as he wrapped up his second  and final term.

Steve was appointed to the Board in 2013 by former Governor Kitzhaber, but already had a history with the Board during his tenure as an Oregon State Representative in the early 2000s when he served on the OHCB as an appointed legislative member. Steve is no stranger to public service, having also served as an elected Multnomah County Auditor and as a financial and budgetary officer at Portland State University. His expertise and passion for the successful cleanup of Hanford served the Board well.

As we thank Steve for his many years serving Oregon’s interest in the Hanford Site cleanup, we also welcome new members to the Board:

• Dr. Susan Katz

• Jeff Wyatt

• Jim Doherty, Morrow County Commissioner

• Oregon State Senator Chris Gorsek

• Governor Brown’s Policy Advisor, Amira Streeter      

More information about our new members will be posted to ODOE’s Cleanup Board webpage.
