BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to NRS 445B.275, the Air Pollution Control (APC) Hearing Board must consist of seven members who are not employees of the State or any political subdivision of the State. One member must be a licensed attorney, another must be a licensed professional engineer, and a third must be a general engineering contractor or general building contractor. The other four are lay member positions that do not require a professional license. The term of each appointment is three years. The positions are voluntary appointments with no compensation.
The terms of APC Hearing Board contractor member Daniel Sanders (Sanders) and lay member Elspeth Cordua (Cordua) expire on September 20, 2024. Current lay member Cordua advised staff that she would not be reapplying for her lay member position. The positions were advertised in the Las Vegas Review-Journal on May 19, 2024, and posted on the County's website from May 20, 2024, through June 20, 2024. The Department of Environment and Sustainability, Division of Air Quality received an application from current contractor member Sanders seeking reappointment to the position. No applications were received for the position of lay member.
Upon review of the application and after conducting an interview, staff recommends the reappointment of Mr. Sanders as the general building contractor member for a three-year term commencing on September 17, 2024, and continuing through September 16, 2027, based on his qualifications and experience with decision-making, air quality regulations, engineering, law, public administration, and administrative boards.
