BOEMRE to hire leadership for new bureau

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement announced April 27 that it is beginning a search to fill two senior leadership positions for the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, one of the two new bureaus being created as part of the reorganization of the former Minerals Management Service.

The positions to be filled are the regional directors for the Pacific and Alaska region offices, in Camarillo, Calif., and Anchorage, Alaska, respectively.

“The people occupying these senior positions will have the responsibility for managing and directing all regulatory and enforcement programs related to safe and environmentally sound offshore energy development,” said BOEMRE Director Michael Bromwich. “We are looking for capable leaders and experienced managers who are committed to ensuring the highest level of safety and environmental standards.”

The individuals selected will be responsible for the overall safety and environmental enforcement programs for the Pacific and Alaska regions as well as overseeing the work of BSEE employees assigned to their region.

The process of filling senior positions is being launched now to ensure a smooth transition from BOEMRE to the two new bureaus, BSEE and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management. The new bureaus will begin operations at the beginning of the next fiscal year, Oct.1.
