On Tuesday, January 31 NAEGA’s Board of Directors held a successful meeting in Miami, Florida. During the meeting, which was chaired by Board Chairman Steve Smalley, board members reviewed a preliminary 2017 budget and dues schedule, discussed the upcoming expiration of board terms, and were briefed on developments surrounding the U.S. government transition and new administration.

The board also moved to fill two unexpired board seats. Amer Badawi of Columbia Grain will serve Ron Williams’ remaining term and Carsten Bredin of Richardson International will fill the remainder of Terry James’ unexpired term. A copy of the meeting minutes will soon be available.
