Congratulations to David Shabazian, for his retirement from his role as Director of the California Department of Conservation after 30 years of public service! He had a great run as Director the last five years. While it will be great to see him dial it back and take it a little easier, focusing on the family, fishing, and mountain biking, I am sure we're going to see great things from him in the future in his upcoming adventures. In the meantime, he will keep busy with his appointment by Governor Newsom to the Food and Agriculture Board (https://lnkd.in/gX8UrHF9).
