Nottingham to leave STB

Nottingham to leave STB

Nottingham

   Surface Transportation Board Commissioner Charles D. Nottingham said Monday he would not seek a second term when his current term expires Dec. 31.
   Nottingham, a Republican, was appointed by President Bush and served as STB chairman from Aug. 14, 2006 until March 12, 2009. President Obama appointed Daniel Elliott as STB chairman last year.
   Nottingham will announce a specific departure date at a later time. The board’s governing statute permits a board member to serve for up to one year after the end of his term, until a successor is appointed.
