White House Releases Ethics Waiver for NASA Administrator Bolden

As pointed out by Jeff Foust on Spacepolitics.com, on Friday the White House released a list of 10 individuals for whom ethics waivers were granted, including NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden. The waiver, which was signed on July 23 by someone whose signature is obscured on the document, can be found here.

The waiver notes that Gen. Bolden served as a consultant to SAIC and on the Board of Directors of GenCorp and he therefore is limited to participating “at the policy or program level” in matters involving those companies. He may not engage in “one-on-one meetings or communications with either entity as set forth in Executive Order 13490,” according to the document.
