Last week, Doug Grow lauded the permanent placement of Brad Moore at the helm of the Minnesota Pollution Control Authority as a glimmer of hope for the agency. Grow, who I find to be a hit or miss, gets it right this time, but more importantly, answers a question I’ve been wondering about for a while; where did former MPCA commissioner Corrigan land a job after she was thrown overboard by Tim Pawlenty, who found her to be a liability in reelection.
Moore, who rose through the ranks of the Department of Natural Resources, replaces Sheryl Corrigan. She came into the job in 2002 from 3M and, in August, went through government’s slickly-greased revolving door to a job with Koch Industries Inc.
Ah, Koch Industries, they of the Minn-Can pipeline. Precious.
