COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio Gov. John Kasich says
the interim director of the state’s Environmental Protection Agency now
has the job.
Kasich appointed Craig Butler as the agency’s director on Friday.
He has been in the role since early January.
Butler
was previously the administration’s senior policy adviser on
environmental, energy, public utility and agricultural issues. He also
worked as district director of the Ohio EPA’s central district and
southeast district offices. He replaces Scott Nally, who resigned last
month.
Kasich also has tapped a lawyer as the interim director of
the Ohio Department of Health. Lance Himes has been an attorney with the
department for more than 10 years. He has been its general counsel
since 2011.
Himes is replacing Theodore Wymyslo (WIMZ’-loh), who wanted to return to private medical practice.
