The South Carolina Board of Health and Environmental Control has appointed Eleanor Kitzman to be the next director of the state’s Department of Health and Environmental Control, following the resignation of Catherine Templeton that took effect Monday. The appointment must now be approved by the governor and is subject to advice and consent of the state’s Senate. DHEC has also named the agency’s General Counsel Marshall Taylor acting director to serve in the interim. Kitzman previously served for eight months in 2011 as the executive director of the South Carolina Budget and Control Board. She also was a Commissioner for the Texas Department of Insurance from late 2011 through 2013, ultimately leaving because she was not confirmed by the Texas Senate. She most recently has been a vice president at Starr Insurance Holdings, Inc.
