|
|
The Senate Environmental Resources and Energy Committee meets to consider the nomination of Acting Secretary Michael Krancer for Secretary, Department of Environmental Protection on March 2. The hearing will be held in the Senate Majority Caucus Room starting at 9:30.
Gov. Corbett has not yet nominated an individual to serve as Secretary of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
Traditionally, each nominee must meet or offer to meet with each of the Senators before a vote can be taken on his or her nomination. There are also a variety of financial interest and other forms which must be filed with the Senate. Filling these forms is typically what leads to some delay in the referral of nominations.
Sen. Mary Jo White (R-Venango) serves as Majority Chair of the Committee and Sen. John Yudichak (D-Luzerne) serves as Majority Chair.
