Senator Creighton Applauds Governor Abbott’s Appointments

Austin, TX – Senator Brandon Creighton (R-Conroe) issued the following statement commending Governor Greg Abbott for appointing three new board members to the San Jacinto River Authority (SJRA).
“I am appreciative of Governor Abbott for appointing three well-qualified individuals to fulfill SJRA’s duties and responsibilities,” said Senator Creighton. “Charles “Ed” Boulware (Montgomery), Mark Micheletti (Kingwood), and Kaaren Cambio (Kingwood) will bring extensive experience to the board of directors.”

SJRA is an appointed governmental body with the mission to protect and conserve the water resources of the San Jacinto River basin. On August 25, 2017, Hurricane Harvey hit the Texas Coast. Throughout the following several days, the storm produced between 30 to 60 inches of rainfall throughout Senate District 4 and across southeast Texas.

“I fully intend to continue working with the entire board of directors and the general manager as well as all stakeholders to ensure that SJRA fulfills their duties to the highest degree,” said Senator Creighton. “I believe the new board members will add much needed representation from different parts of the river basin.”
