Nominated To Be Head of EPA, Leavitt Has Bad Enviro Record
- "From wilderness to wetlands, Leavitt has routinely fought for corporate interests at the expense of our environment. He recently cut a backroom deal with the Interior Department that will open millions of acres of Utah wilderness to drilling, mining and off-road vehicle use. He entered another secret settlement that will open wilderness areas, national parks and other public lands to road building. And he supports the notorious Legacy Highway, which will devastate wetlands near Utahs Great Salt Lake." - excerpt from Friends of the Earth website at http://www.foe.org/new/releases/0803leavitt.html
