The White House announced November 4 that President Joe Biden has appointed former Milwaukee port director Adam Tindall-Schlicht as the next administrator of the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation (GLSLSDC). Tindall-Schlicht resigned his position at Port Milwaukee on October 19; his last day at the port was October 28. The U.S. Seaway has been without an administrator since 2016 when former Ohio Rep. Betty Sutton left the post. In April, 40 members of Congress from both houses wrote to Biden, urging that the position be filled. Tindall-Schlicht will be the first Great Lakes port director to serve as administrator since 1983. "My position as port director has been the greatest experience of my professional life thus far," said Tindall-Schlicht in a statement released by the port. "Serving the residents of the city of Milwaukee and promoting statewide economic growth through the port's commercial, recreational and cruise operations has been a privilege." |
