Bense Named To Board To Oversee Deepwater Horizon Money
August 23, 2013
Former Florida House Speaker Allan Bense, a Panama City Republican, was tapped Thursday to a board charged with overseeing the use of funds raised from fines and settlements stemming from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil-spill disaster.
Senate President Don Gaetz, R-Niceville, announced that he would appoint the former lawmaker to the five-member Board of Trustees of Triumph Gulf Coast, Inc., which was established by the Legislature during its spring session.
“Allan Bense is a lifelong champion and passionate steward of the natural and human resources of the Northwest Florida Gulf Coast,” Gaetz said in a news release.
