Description
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has "someone in mind" to replace retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Charles E. Williams as head of the State Dept.'s Overseas Building Operations (OBO) office, a department spokesman told ENR on Dec. 21, two days after the former Corps of Engineers officer said he will exit the multi-billion-dollar embassy construction program on Dec. 31. Williams was brought in by former Secretary of State Colin Powell in 2001 to bolster U.S. diplomatic facilities abroad, but he has been a controversial figure among program participants and overseers.
