Three people have put their hats in the ring for a Kern County Water Agency board seat that was left vacant when that board member was hired as the agency’s General Manager. Tamara Johnson, Director of California Water Service’s southern region; Greg Wegis, longtime farmer and farm manager; and Mark Mulkay, retired General Manager of the Kern Delta Water District, all submitted letters of interest for the seat. The board is expected to select the new board member at its meeting on Wednesday.
