HoD Bylaws Proposals Available Online

Proposed amendments to the AAPG Bylaws that will be considered at the annual meeting in New Orleans are available.

House of Delegates Chairman Steve Sonnenberg said seven changes are proposed, three of which are “editorial housekeeping.”

The other proposed changes would:

• Provide for appointment of Delegates from U.S. Affiliated societies, if such Delegates are not elected prior to 60 days before the annual meeting of the House of Delegates.
• Provide for the Advisory Council to recommend recipients of honors and awards when directed to do so by the Executive Committee.
• Limit the terms of AAPG representatives to non-AAPG committees.
• Provide for standing committee co-chairmen and committee managers and to limit the terms of committee vice chairmen.

In addition to being available online, a printed copy of the proposed changes may be obtained by contacting Regina Gill at 1-800-364-2274.
