A Virginia native, Findlay also is a Texas A&M University graduate. He was employed by Texas Cotton Ginners in 1991 as a field safety representative before joining Southeastern Cotton Ginners Association in 1997.

Findlay serves on the NCGA’s Advisory Policy Council, Air Quality Subcommittee, Gin By-Products Subcommittee, Ginning Technology Committee, Legislative Committee, OSHA Compliance Subcommittee, Safety & Labor Committee, and the Safety Specialists Forum.

“Dusty has devoted many years of his life to the ginning industry and has been an invaluable asset,” Tiller said in presenting the award. “He is often sought on a wide-range of issues, including safety and labor regulations, environmental regulations, trucking laws, and improving cotton quality.”
