Nat'l Academy of Sciences and GAO Criticize Bush on Wetlands

"The National Academy of Sciences and the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, had long criticized the government's approach to wetlands. When the Bush administration announced a new policy in October 2001, though, it did not include recommendations from these reports, thus drawing complaints that Mr. Bush was straying too far from the goals set by his father's administration in 1989 that there be no net loss of wetlands." - excerpt from the New York Times, free registration required, at http://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/28/politics/28WETL.html
