Members encouraged to run, vote in upcoming board election

摘要

Members of the National Biodiesel Board have numerous ways of guiding their organization throughout the year. One of the biggest opportunities comes every fall during the November membership meeting with the governing board elections. The 15 board members serve two-year terms that are staggered so each year there are either seven or eight terms expiring. This year in St Louis, members will vote to fill seven seats. "Being active and engaged in your industry's membership organization was a simple decision for me," said Steven J. Levy, current NBB chairman. "The NBB brings together all segments of the biodiesel industry, collaborates, and then executes a clear pam forward. There are many opportunities throughout me year for members' input on the direction of the organization, but there is no greater level of engagement than serving on the governing board." The election committee appointed by Chairman Levy is currendy seeking nominations from the membership to fill the seats and the full membership will vote in November.
