Nominations Due May 20, 2022

WASHINGTON, DC – The Paper and Packaging Board (P+PB) is seeking nominees for three open board seats in the following regions: two from the South for a three-year term and one from the rest of the U.S. for a one-year term. The board term begins on January 1, 2023.

The ideal candidate is an experienced industry executive from the containerboard, kraft, paperboard or paper sectors whose company produces more than 100,000 short tons a year. This individual will bring different perspectives and ideas to the Board’s deliberations. P+PB strongly encourages companies to nominate diverse candidates including women, minorities, ethnicities and cultures who can further enhance dialogue and Board decision making.

Nominations start April 20, 2022, and run through May 20, 2022. All nominations are submitted to USDA and the Secretary of Agriculture appoints new board members by the end of 2022.
