by

Governor Pedro Pierluisi Urrutia on Monday named Francisco J. Rodriguez Dosal as the new executive director of the Highway and Transportation Authority (ACT).

A press release from La Fortalesa detailed that Rodríguez Dosal has 24 years of experience in the public service and the construction industry.

This is the second appointment that the president makes for the management of the ACT, because after Pierluisi announced that former director Rossana Aguilar would remain in the position under his administration, the official resigned from his position in December.

Meanwhile, the governor also appointed Carlos Mercado Santiago as the new head of the Tourism Company, who served as deputy director of the entity during the administration of former governor Wanda Vázquez Garced. Previously, Santiago Market worked as a director of the Puerto Rico Trade and Export Company.

Pierluisi also appointed Mariela Vallines Fernández as executive director of the Convention Center District Authority and Natalia I. Zequeira Díaz as commissioner of the Office of the Commissioner of Financial Institutions.

Similarly, Pierluisi appointed Orlando Rivera Carrión as Director of the Gambling Division and Rafael FREYTES Cutreras as Director of the Special Investigations Negotiation (NIE). Meanwhile, Nilda Marxen was nominated as executive director of the Roosevelt Roads Authority for Redevelopment.

The first executive also confirmed the appointment of the former senator of the New Progressive Party (PNP) and former mayor of Salines, Carlos Rodríguez Mateu, as director of the Administration of Mental Health Services and Against Addiction (Assmca). Last week, the appointed Secretary of Health, Carlos Mellado, announced the appointment of the former legislator.
