Vice President / President-Elect Candidates The ANS Nominating Committee has selected as the candidates for Vice President / President-Elect: Jacques Besnainou (AREVA Inc.), and Eric P. Loewen (GE). Board of Directors Candidates The ANS Board of Directors each serve a three year term that begins and ends during an ANS Annual Meeting. The ANS Bylaws and Rules require that U.S. and non U.S. members be proportionately represented; therefore, in the 2010 election, there are four U.S. Director At-Large, and one non-U.S. Director At-Large positions to be filled. U.S. Director At-Large Position Candidates Nominated to run for the U.S. Director At-Large positions are: Kelle J. Barfield (Entergy), Carol L. Berrigan (Nuclear Energy Institute), Sama Bilbao y Leon (International Atomic Energy Agency), Jack S. Brenizer, Jr. (Penn State University), K. Michael Goff (Idaho National Laboratory), John S.

Non-U.S. Director At-Large Position Candidates Nominated to run for the Non-U.S. Director At-Large - the Americas - position are: Amares Chatt (Dalhousie University), Daniel A. Meneley (AECL). Directors whose terms will end in June 2010 are: Sama Bilbao y Leon, William E. Burchill, Juan Luis Francois, Alan E. Levin, Jose N. Reyes, Amir Shahkarami. In addition to Chair William E. Burchill, members of this year's Nominating Committee included: Local Sections Committee Chair Audeen W. Fentiman, Cindy Fung, Darby S. Kimball, James A. Lake, Corey K. McDaniel, John K. Wheeler, Ned Wogman. Nominating by Petition Members have the option to Nominate by Petition. Candidates, other than individuals on the Nominating Committee's slate, may be nominated by petition for Officer and Director vacancies. Acceptable petitions must: * Be signed by 200 or more ANS voting members; * Contain the original signature of each petitioner; * Have the nominee's written consent; and * Be in the Office of the ANS Executive Director at least 22 weeks prior to the Annual Meeting. Petitions for the 2010 national election are due at ANS Headquarters no later than January 8, 2010 (no extensions). Voting Ballots for the 2010-2011 election will be mailed on March 1, 2010. As ratified by the ANS membership in June 1997, there will no longer be balloting at the Annual Meeting. Therefore, the mail ballots for the Board of Directors election must be returned and received no later than 12 noon on Tuesday, April 12, 2010. |
