Chris,
A disk or belt sander will make short work of that job. Grip the board
tightly with all your thumbs so it does not catch and be flung about the
shop, maybe into a soft spot on your body - be safe.
If you do not have either of those, support the board well and cut with
a hacksaw.
A die grinder will work too.
Be certain you are not cutting into any PC traces on the board unless
you are willing to repair any that are cut off.
