NDOT to get permanent director

SUN CAPITAL BUREAU

CARSON CITY -- The state Transportation Board was expected to select Jeff Fontaine today as permanent director of the Transportation Department, which is in charge of hundreds of millions of dollars of road construction.

Fontaine, deputy director of the agency, has been acting director since Tom Stephens announced his retirement several months ago.

The board, headed by Gov. Kenny Guinn, was to meet later today. But a government source said Fontaine is in line for the top job.
