The director isn’t appointed so they’ll have to go through the whole process of pulling from the register, interviewing, etc.

Not much moves swiftly during that process.

CNC, you should head over to the governor's mansion with a case of Titos and all of your charts and tell MeMaw you want the job.

I have a hard time believing that this isn't a Governor appointed position. Have you got something to verify this?

The director is appointed by the commissioner who is appointed by the governor.

OK, so it is an appointed position and not a hire based on merit. What I thought, just didn't know who made the appointment.

For some reason I thought I saw somewhere that a new Director was appointed yesterday but I can't find it today.

You may be thinking about Tim Woods being appointed as head of AWF. I saw that yesterday or so.

I have my former tenure as a DCNR employee as well as the job posting on the personnel website. I can post a screenshot of that announcement if you’d like

Brae is right. It’s not an appointed position. They’re hired through the normal state process. The job is posted on the personnel website and a selection is made. They very well may know who they are going to hire beforehand, but they must follow the same hiring procedures as any other state position.

That would be great. I like having someone I can get on the phone to bitch at when I feel the need to unload. I'd do it if I didn't enjoy being retired as much as I do.

This is straight from Alabama law….AL Code § 9-2-61

The Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries shall be a division of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and shall be headed by and be under the direction, supervision and control of the Director of the Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries. He shall be appointed by the Commissioner of Conservation and Natural Resources with the approval of the Governor.
