Hueneme Wins Its 7th Consecutive GFOA Award

The Port of Hueneme has been awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA).

This recognition is the highest award given for governmental accounting and financial reporting, and receiving it displays a significant achievement by the governmental agency and its management team.

The port’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report was judged by an impartial panel, which reviewed it for particular standards and for showing a "spirit of full disclosure" in the port’s financials.

It was the port’s seventh consecutive GFOA award. Andrew Palomares is the port’s chief finance & administrative officer.

"I am especially proud of this seventh consecutive award because it is a testament to the excellent District financial leadership and it also shows that we continue to perform at these high levels deserving of recognition," said Port Director Kristin Decas.
