Department of Energy cleanup official Matt Moury will serve as DOE’s permanent Associate Under Secretary for Environment, Health, Safety and Security after heading up the newly created office in an acting capacity for the last six months, Deputy Under Secretary for Management and Performance David Klaus said in a message to employees late last week. Steve Kirchhoff will serve as Moury’s deputy, Klaus said in the Aug. 7 message.

The Office of Environment, Health, Safety and Security was created when the Office of Health, Safety and Security was reorganized, and Moury was brought in from DOE’s Office of Environmental Management to aid the transition. He previously served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Safety, Security and Quality Programs in EM. Kirchhoff came from within the former HSS organization, having previously served as its Director of the Office of Resource Management. “Matt and Steve have provided excellent leadership in establishing the Office of Environment, Health, Safety and Security, and guiding the organization through the transition,” Klaus said. “We look forward to their continued strong leadership now that they are no longer acting in these positions.”
