Laura Thielen interim chairwoman of DLNR


Advertiser reports and Star-Bulletin reports that Lingle has appointed Laura H. Thielen as interim chairwoman of the state Department of Land and Natural Resources. She is currently executive director of the state Office of Planning. I hear that as a former member of the state Board of Education she has been supportive of Hawaiian charter schools. (She's the daughter of Republican representative Cynthia Thielen, who has been good on energy and environmental issues, and was involved in the Kaho'olawe movement.) She'll have some tough tasks cleaning up the State Historic Preservation office, Bureau of Conveyances, etc. but at least it sounds like she has some promise. Pacific Business News story also.
