Our guest speaker this month: Greg Patterson, Secretary of the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC). In this role, he heads the cabinet agency with broad responsibilities for safeguarding and managing the state’s natural resources, protecting public health and the environment, providing outdoor recreational opportunities and educating Delawareans about the state and planet.
As Secretary, he oversees efforts to combat climate change, lower energy prices for Delawareans, promote environmental justice, streamline permitting, make DNREC’s services and experts more accessible to the public, and more. Under his leadership, DNREC unveiled an updated Climate Action Plan, assessed and increased penalties for environmental violations and created an online dashboard to make the permitting process quicker and easier for customers.
Greg’s talk will center on DNREC accomplishments during his tenure thus far and key priorities and expected challenges going forward.
