A cornerstone of his immediate agenda is positioning the Port of Oswego to serve as a primary logistics hub for the Micron project in Clay, New York. Additionally, Drumm will prioritize strengthening the Port\u2019s relationships with state and federal agencies to secure the infrastructure investments necessary for long-term modernization and growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am honored to return to my roots to lead the Port of Oswego at such a pivotal moment in our region&#8217;s history,\u201d said Tom Drumm. \u201cHaving served at the intersection of state and federal policy and local impact, I understand how to align our maritime operations with the massive economic opportunities ahead, including the Micron project and the restart of the Novelis hotmill. My tenure working in and around government has prepared me to advocate fiercely for the infrastructure and investment our Port deserves. We are entering a new era of maritime leadership\u2014one that is transparent, strategically connected, and prepared to compete.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>maritime professional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; April 6, 2026&#13; &#13; &#13; \u00a9 Port of Oswego&#13; The Port of Oswego Authority Board of Directors has announced the appointment of Tom Drumm as Executive Director and CEO.
