CRSOA members are invited to meet with Oregon DEQ Ballast Water Program Coordinator Joshua Emerson
Mr. Emerson is Oregon Department of Environmental Quality Ballast Water Program Manager, he joined the Agency in 2017. Prior to that, he worked on the Vessel General Permit (VGP) where he was a member of the Water Permits Division at EPA headquarters in Washington, D.C. The VGP regulated more than 20 specific discharges from vessels, and a primary focus was preventing the spread of invasive species into the Great Lakes and U.S. coastal waters by the global commercial vessel fleet.
