Dunleavy picks second ex-talk radio host for lucrative fish job after first rejected"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>In May, the Alaska Legislature<a href=\"https:\/\/www.northernjournal.com\/r\/e096951a?m=47152b12-13c8-419c-b4b0-fc97ba9e25b0\"> narrowly rejected<\/a> a conservative talk radio host&rsquo;s appointment to a highly paid position regulating the state&rsquo;s commercial fisheries.<\/p>\n<p>Now, after the failure of that pick, Republican Gov. Mike Dunleavy has chosen a new appointee with a similar &mdash; though not identical &mdash; background for the six-figure job at the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.northernjournal.com\/r\/97177c00?m=47152b12-13c8-419c-b4b0-fc97ba9e25b0\"> Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission<\/a>, or CFEC.<\/p>\n<p>In an unannounced decision, Dunleavy selected Rick Green last month, according to a letter to Green that the governor&rsquo;s office released Wednesday as part of a response to a Northern Journal public records request.<\/p>\n<p>Green&rsquo;s first day on the job is July 1, according to the commission&rsquo;s chair, Glenn Haight; Green will serve at least through the Alaska Legislature&rsquo;s next round of confirmation votes in the spring of 2025.<\/p>\n<p>On the airwaves for more than 15 years, Green was known as Rick Rydell during a colorful career as a talk host. His on-air character was that of an &ldquo;unabashed redneck,&rdquo; according to one of the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.northernjournal.com\/r\/16c9db4e?m=47152b12-13c8-419c-b4b0-fc97ba9e25b0\"> books he wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of those books also chronicled how, with two other hunting enthusiasts, Rydell once attempted to shoot, legally, 30 bears in a single long weekend.<\/p>\n<p>But since 2018, Green has ditched his talk show persona and worked as a low-profile special assistant to Alaska&rsquo;s fish and game commissioner, Doug Vincent-Lang.<\/p>\n<p>That government service may make his chances of confirmation greater than those of Dunleavy&rsquo;s previous appointee, Mike Porcaro. Porcaro had no experience as a commercial fisherman and was still working as a conservative advertising consultant and talk radio host when the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.northernjournal.com\/r\/eceed355?m=47152b12-13c8-419c-b4b0-fc97ba9e25b0\"> governor appointed him last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Green has some experience in the Department of Fish and Game, which will give him more standing with the Legislature,&rdquo; said Dillingham independent Rep. Bryce Edgmon, who represents Alaska&rsquo;s salmon-rich Bristol Bay region and voted against Porcaro&rsquo;s confirmation. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s an important appointment, and I hope it works out this time.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The fishery commission, with some 20 employees, does largely low-key bureaucratic work &mdash; including issuing annual commercial fishing permits, granting and denying permit transfers in the event of illnesses and deaths, and publishing fisheries reports and statistics.<\/p>\n<p>But it has<a href=\"https:\/\/www.northernjournal.com\/r\/fd837169?m=47152b12-13c8-419c-b4b0-fc97ba9e25b0\"> drawn attention from policymakers<\/a> in recent years for what critics say is a small workload and yearly commissioner salaries that can exceed $135,000.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesman for Dunleavy, Grant Robinson, described Green as a good fit for the job, saying he gained &ldquo;considerable understanding of fisheries&rdquo; in his work at the fish and game department.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;He&rsquo;s been an avid outdoorsman for the past 40 years, served three years on the Anchorage Fish and Game Advisory Committee, and has a background as a project manager for environmental and engineering firms,&rdquo; Robinson said. &ldquo;Rick&rsquo;s professional background and experience in public engagement make him a valuable asset to the CFEC. We are confident that his contributions will benefit the commission and the sustainable management of Alaska&rsquo;s fisheries.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Robinson declined to specify Green&rsquo;s exact compensation, referring to salary guidelines that are tied to the number of years an employee has previously worked in state government jobs. Haight, the commission&rsquo;s chair, said that Green would be in the same range as Porcaro, who was paid at a $136,000-a-year salary rate before lawmakers rejected his appointment.<\/p>\n<p>In an email, Green said his work for the state, combined with his personal fishing experience and the time he spent on the Anchorage advisory committee, make the CFEC job a &ldquo;natural extension.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m grateful to the governor for the faith he placed in me,&rdquo; Green said in his email, sent from an account that identified him as &ldquo;Rick Rydell.&rdquo; The commission, he added, works with the commercial fishing industry &ldquo;to optimize the development of our natural resources and annually contribute billions of dollars to the economy of Alaska.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I already have a great relationship with Commissioner Glenn Haight,&rdquo; he added. &ldquo;And I&rsquo;m eager to meet, and work with, the rest of the staff on this important mission.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&#8226; <em>Nathaniel Herz welcomes tips at <\/em><em>natherz@gmail.com or (907) 793-0312<\/em><em>. <\/em><em>This article was originally <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northernjournal.com\/alaska-gov-dunleavy-picks-second-ex-talk-host-for-lucrative-fish-job-after-lawmakers-reject-his-first-pick\/\"><em>published <\/em><\/a><em>in Northern Journal, a newsletter from Herz.
