Former Nuclear Regulatory Commission member William Ostendorff has become a senior adviser for decision-support consulting firm Predicus, the company announced Tuesday.
Ostendorff served just over six years on the commission, leaving in June 2016 to become a visiting professor at the U.S. Naval Academy. He previously served in the Navy from 1976 to his retirement in 2002, and then at the National Academies, as a staffer on Capitol Hill, and as principal deputy administrator for the National Nuclear Security Administration.
“Bill will be focused on regulatory and program risk issues associated with spent fuel management,” James Voss, a senior partner at Predicus and until recently managing director of Waste Management Symposia, told Weapons Complex Morning Briefing by email Tuesday.
Issaquah, Wash.-based Predicus offers the “Predicus Process,” a system for supporting corporate project decision-making in the energy, transportation, environmental sectors.
