Applicants are encouraged to submit a letter of interest and resume to the Grant PUD Board of Commissions by sending it to: Grant County PUD, P.O. Box 878 Ephrata, Washington 98823. Submissions can also be sent by email to commissioners@grantpud.org. The deadline is 5pm September 10th.

Applicants must provide a statement of qualifications, pertinent education, relevant experience and reasons for seeking appointment as a Grant PUD Commissioner.

Walker passed away earlier this month from lung cancer. He was first elected in 2010 and was involved in the development of the Columbia Basin Project.
