Robert 'Bob' Perciasepe (born February 19, 1951) is president of the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES), an independent, nonprofit, nonpartisan organization promoting strong policy and action to address the twin challenges of energy and climate change.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.c2es.org/newsroom/releases/bob-perciasepe-named-new-president-c2es )〕 For almost 40 years, Perciasepe has been an environmental manager with a background of local, state and national experience, most recently as the Deputy Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =Bob Perciasepe Named Audubon COO )〕 Prior to joining the Obama Administration, Perciasepe was Chief Operating Officer for the environmental conservation non-profit National Audubon Society. Before that, he served in the Administration of President Bill Clinton as EPA’s Assistant Administrator for clean water and then later as the Assistant Administrator for clean air. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =Robert Perciasepe, Deputy Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency )〕 Prior to that time he served as Maryland’s Secretary of the Environment after holding the positions of Chief of Capital Planning and Assistant Director for Planning for the city of Baltimore. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =Deputy Directors Observations On Visit To Cincinnati )〕 ==Early life and career== Born on February 19, 1951, in New Rochelle, New York, Perciasepe was raised in the small town of Brewster, New York and later Ancram, New York. He attended Immaculate High School in Danbury, Connecticut, from 1965-1969. In 1974 he graduated from Cornell University with a Bachelor of Science in Natural Resources and in 1976 received his Master's Degree in Planning and Public Administration from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University.〔 〕 After graduation, Perciasepe began working in the Baltimore City Planning Department (1976–1980), where he later served as Chief of Capital Planning (1980-1986) and as Assistant Director for Planning (1986-1987). In 1987, Perciasepe joined the Maryland Department of the Environment, serving as Assistant Secretary of Planning and Capital Programs until 1989, when he was appointed Deputy Secretary of the full Department by then Maryland Governor William Donald Schaefer, the former Mayor of Baltimore. In 1990, Governor Schaefer's Secretary of the Environment, Martin Walsh, drew major criticism from environmentalists who saw Walsh as uncommitted to saving the Chesapeake Bay, among other environmental concerns. After Governor Schaefer was re-elected in 1990, he announced that he would "reorganize his administration," appointing Perciasepe to be Walsh's replacement as Maryland's Secretary of the Environment, thus making Perciasepe that Department's second Secretary. During his tenure as Secretary of the Environment, Perciasepe oversaw the agency's $59 million budget and 770 employees. While there, he took actions that included re-evaluating the Chesapeake Bay Program’s efforts to reduce harmful nutrients, chairing the Northeast Ozone Transport Commission for cleaner regional air quality, reducing emissions from cars, and initiating new recycling requirements. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bob Perciasepe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
