State Mine Director Granted Ethics Exemption
WEST VIRGINIA....
State Ethics Commission Executive Director Theresa Wick has granted West Virginia mine safety chief Ron Wooten's request for an exemption from ethics law. Wooten believes he can stay on as director of the agency, but he is unsure what might happen if Governor Joe Manchin wins election to the U.S. Senate. The exemption allows Wooten permission to seek a job with companies regulated by the state Office of Miners' Health Safety and Training.
