NOMINATIONS FOR COMMISSION ON WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ACCEPTED UNTIL APRIL 6, 2011

HONOLULU --  The Commission on Water Resource Management is extending its nomination period until Wednesday, April 6, 2011.  The original application period (October 17 - November 22, 2010) ended before Governor Neil Abercrombie took office. 

After being sworn in, Governor Abercrombie actively encouraged members of the public to come forward and serve on public boards and commissions.  Subsequently, the Governor's office received a number of recommendations for the Commission.

To provide the broadest range of potential candidates in the Abercrombie Administration, the Commission is extending the time to receive nominations. 

The Governor's selection will be subject to confirmation by the Hawaii State Senate.  Commissioners will serve a four-year term from July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2015.
