Bernard L. McNamee, who earlier this year said he did not plan to seek another term at FERC, said Wednesday he intends to step down on Sept. 4.

McNamee in January had indicated he would step down from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission at the end of his term, which expired June 30. 

“Since I announced at our January meeting that I would not be seeking another term, I have continued to work diligently and tirelessly on the important work of the Commission,” McNamee said. “After I leave, I will take some time off and search for a job.”

Serving on the Commission, McNamee said, “has been an incredible honor and an experience for which I am extremely grateful. I thank President Trump for having nominated me and the Senate for having confirmed me.”
