Department of State Lands Office of the Director

  • Office of the Director
    Louise Solliday, DSL Director
    I am honored to be part of the Department of State Lands, working on programs to help Oregon sustain our natural resources, protect citizens' lost financial assets and secure funding for our schools.

    When I first came to Oregon in the 1980s, I fell in love with this state. If I can help Oregon be a better place for future generations, I believe I've done meaningful work. I share this commitment with the staff here at DSL, and I look forward every day to working on our shared vision for Oregon.

    -Louise Solliday, Director
