Surface Transportation Board Chairman Martin J. Oberman today announced that he has appointed, with the approval of the Board, Mai Dinh to serve as Director of the Office of Proceedings. In her role as Director, Ms. Dinh oversees the development of the public record in proceedings before the agency and manages the office’s legal and administrative sections.
“With the addition of Ms. Dinh as Director of the Office of Proceedings, the Board gains more than 25 years of expert legal and policy experience in diverse areas of practice,” said Chairman Oberman. “Her impressive background and leadership skills will help the Board maintain an extremely busy proceeding schedule and will further enable the Office of Proceedings to provide advice and assistance that the Board relies upon to decide complex cases for the public’s benefit.”
Ms. Dinh’s most recent position was as assistant general counsel with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, where she led the legal team advising the Agricultural Marketing Service. She gained extensive administrative law experience through previous positions at Federal regulatory agencies including the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Election Commission, and the National Indian Gaming Commission.
