Jenniffer González Colón names María Marín Colón interim at COR3 and sends 12 appointments
On June 15, 2026, Governor Jenniffer González Colón designates María Marín Colón interim director of the Oficina Central de Recuperación, Reconstrucción y Resiliencia as of July 1. La Fortaleza presents her as a CPA with more than 20 years in accounting, government, insurance, and banking. COR3 deputy director since February 2025, she administered more than 30 billion dollars in federal Public Assistance and mitigation: validation before disbursement and projects with municipalities, agencies, and nonprofits. Since 2023, Chief Infrastructure and Operations Officer. Before, Oficina del Comisionado de Seguros, CDBG-DR finance at Vivienda, BDO, MassMutual, and banking.
The same release says that earlier she sent the Senate 12 appointments that require advice and consent. It names Carlos J. Ríos Pierluisi as secretary of the Departamento de Desarrollo Económico y Comercio — the page writes Carlos J. Ríos Pierluisi; the private-sector announcement of that same date uses Carlos J. Ríos Pierluisi, and that is this desk's form for the June designate. For superior-court judge: Elmer Luis Cuerda Cruz, Carlos Javier Capó Hernández, Ilsa I. González Rivera, Vivian Durieux Rodríguez, and Sonia I. Martínez Ortiz. Auxiliary prosecutor II: Daralis Marián Alicea Cordero and Karem Joan Calo Perez. Junta de Instituciones Postsecundarias: Jorge Arturo Colón Rivera and Jorge L. Alicea Santos. The page does not complete the 12 in letters; those it put are copied. The missing ones are not invented.
The COR3 interim, in the text, does not go through the Senate. The 12 do. On June 14, María Marín had already appeared as COR3 deputy director in the congressional briefing. The 15th is the interim appointment. Another URL the same day presents Carlos J. Ríos Pierluisi to the private sector: that is covered separately. Here the lead is COR3 and the senatorial package.
The 30 billion are La Fortaleza's on her time as deputy director, not a new COR3 tally. What remains is the July 1 date, the named judges, and DDEC on the list.
The reader has La Fortaleza. This is not original reporting.
