Washington, D.C. June 12, 2018 - Today, the U.S. Chemical Safety Board announced that Dr. Kristen Kulinowski will serve as the agency‰??s Interim Executive Authority following the resignation of Chairperson Vanessa Allen Sutherland.
Dr. Kulinowski said, ‰??I am honored to serve in this new capacity. I look forward to working with my fellow board members in continuing our shared commitment to the board‰??s important mission. I am committed to ensuring that the CSB‰??s current investigations are completed in a timely and efficient manner and that the lessons learned are available to industry, workers and members of the public.‰??
Dr. Kulinowski has expertise in chemical and materials sciences, occupational health and safety issues, risk policy, nanotechnology, and research administration.
