Lisa Fowlkes and Ken Moran, both in the FCC抯 Enforcement Bureau, and Dana Shaffer, on loan to Comr. Robert McDowell from the Wireline Bureau, are expected to be named deputy chiefs of the new Public Safety & Homeland Security Bureau when it opens in coming weeks, according to industry and FCC sources. To date, there's still no word on who抣l head the bureau, mandated in March. 揟he Bureau chief position is the missing part of the puzzle,?said an industry source: 揟here is plenty of speculation... those who know aren't talking, and those who are talking don't know.?Catherine Bohigian, chief of the Office of Strategic Planning & Policy Analysis, is reportedly no longer a candidate. Fowlkes, an assistant bureau chief, has been with the Enforcement Bureau since 2000 and briefly was a deputy chief of the Wireless Bureau. Moran is acting dir. of the FCC抯 Office of Homeland Security, now part of the Enforcement Bureau, and has represented the FCC on homeland security issues at conferences. He has been at the FCC since 1978. Shaffer, who also has worked on loan for Comr. Deborah Tate, is a deputy chief in the Wireline Bureau. The likeliest scenario has her serving both as a deputy chief and division chief.
