Tired of your old hell? Well we’ve got a new fresh hell for you!
This guy is Zinke accelerated without the idiotic drama.
Sales of O&G leases have continued throughout the shutdown.
O&G leases no longer go through the NEPA process. The excuse is that it will be conducted during the drilling process (which is complete BS).
Parks that stayed open through the shutdown experienced damage (offroad vehicle damage, campfires outside of campgrounds, human waste everywhere) due to the absence of oversight and maintenance. And I expect that’s the direction that the Interior intends to head.
Bad news.
Superior Posterior Announces Acting Interior Inferior.
Yes, and I doubt Mr. Bernhardt has any real plan to clean up and fix up any of this, or to fund the effort. So the on-site NPS rangers and scientists and organizers, who just got back from a month without income, now are in the midst of figuring out how to catch up and do all this extra vandalism-caused work, without any extra budget. And they’re trying to do this when their necessary maintenance was already deeply backlogged due to budget skimpiness.
He came to this brilliant conclusion after spending many many days thinking about it during executive time. See, now aren’t you glad he uses his time this way instead if wasting it in boring meeting listening to supposed experts like his trust worthy but not as smart as him, Intel Chiefs?
