摘要

In a flurry of action filling key energy and environmental slots in the Obama ad-ministration, the White House this week nominated Robert Perciasepe as deputy administrator at the Environmental Pro-tection Agency and the Senate confirmed Daniel Poneman as deputy secretary at the Energy Department.rnThe Senate also voted 88-6 Tuesday to confirm Gary Gensler as chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) after several Senators agreed to lift their holds on the nomination.
