The South Sound Estuary Association is looking to fill three positions on its board of directors.

The board members will play a role in planning, leading and fulfilling the organization’s vision and goals. The association seeks potential board members with backgrounds in facility planning and development, grant writing and fundraising, business, law and banking.

This is an opportunity to help grow this fairly new environmental organization and contribute to the long-term vision of an aquarium and marine science center in downtown Olympia.

The organization already runs programs such as Pier Peers, the Discovery Speaker Series and beach naturalists.

If you’re interested, call Ken Guza at 360-754-7371 or send an email to dianaken@olywa.net.

  • Hanford Advisory Board members say better public outreach may answer DOE concerns

    Better outreach to the public may be the key to resolving concerns of Department of Energy officials in Washington, D.C., about the diversity of the Hanford Advisory Board, some members said Friday.

    For the third time since 2000, DOE headquarters officials pushed to change the composition of the board in 2012.

    The citizen board advises DOE and its regulators, the Washington State Department of Ecology and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, on environmental cleanup of the massively contaminated Hanford nuclear reservation, where plutonium was produced for the nation's nuclear weapons program. That means questioning government policy and taking stands that sometimes are at odds with DOE.
