Christie Whitman was sworn in as EPA Administrator on January 31, 2001. Prior to that,
Whitman served as the 50th Governor of New Jersey.
In testimony before the U.S. Senate on January 17, Whitman said she believed environmental
and economic goals go hand in hand and that she would continue her record of working to forge
strong partnerships among citizens, government and business to produce measurable
environmental results of cleaner air, water and land.
As governor of New Jersey, Whitman developed a strong environmental record, providing cleaner air, water and
land than when she was first elected in November 1993. Under her environmental leadership, New Jersey's air
became significantly cleaner. The number of days New Jersey violated the federal one-hour air quality standard
for ground level ozone dropped from 45 in 1988 to four in 2000. The state is on target to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions below 1990 levels.
New Jersey's waterways, coasts and ocean waters also became significantly cleaner. Beach closings reached a
record low and the state earned recognition by the Natural Resources Defense Council for instituting the most
comprehensive beach monitoring system in the nation. The Governor won voter approval for a plan to break a
longstanding impasse over dredging the state's ports that is both environmentally acceptable and economical.
She established a new watershed management program. New Jersey now leads the nation in opening shellfish
beds for harvesting.
As a preservationist, Governor Whitman won voter approval for the state's first stable funding source to preserve
one million more acres of open space and farmland in ten years. By 2010, New Jersey will have permanently
preserved 40 percent of its total landmass, with more than half preserved during her tenure. She is an advocate
for "smart growth" and in New Jersey she encouraged new growth in cities and other areas where roads, sewers
and schools are already in place. She encouraged redevelopment of cities through programs to streamline
cleanups of abandoned industrial "brownfield" sites.
Whitman was New Jersey's first female governor. She appointed New Jersey's first African American State
Supreme Court Justice, its first female State Supreme Court Chief Justice and its first female Attorney General.
Prior to becoming governor, Whitman headed the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities and the Somerset County
Board of Freeholders. She grew up in Hunterdon County, N.J. and earned a bachelor's degree in government
from Wheaton College in Massachusetts in 1968. She is married to John R. Whitman and has two children.

Bush's EPA chief seeks greener pastures

BYLINE: By Jake Tapper
SECTION: Feature
LENGTH: 2291 words
HIGHLIGHT: Tired of losing battles with far-right adversaries, Christine Todd

Whitman hands in her resignation.
It was pretty clear to Hazel Gluck, a friend and former New Jersey campaign
official close to Christine Todd Whitman, that the woman in charge of the
Environmental Protection Agency had grown "exhausted," in part because of her
long-standing battles with pro-growth conservative forces in the administration
-- forces that almost always won.
But it was with characteristic loyalty and abject refusal to admit anything
but sheer delight with the Bush administration that Whitman finally resigned
Tuesday, writing to President Bush that she wanted to "return to my home and
husband in New Jersey, which I love just as you do your home state of Texas."
The letter, released Wednesday morning, claimed "significant improvements to

the state of our Nation's treasured environment" and announced a departure date
of June 27. In a statement, President Bush called Whitman "a trusted friend and
advisor" and "a dedicated and tireless fighter for new and innovative policies
for cleaner air, purer water, and better protected land."
Inside the Beltway there was talk -- based upon conjecture and Whitman's
losing battles with conservatives in the administration -- that Whitman was
shown the door; Whitman, meanwhile, has maintained that the president had tried
to talk her out of her decision and others backed this account. "I don't believe
she was in any way pushed out," said Rep. Jim Greenwood, R-Penn., a moderate and
No. 2 Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee's subcommittee on
the environment and hazardous materials. "The information I have is that the
president tried to get her to change her mind" and that Whitman quite simply
misses her husband of 29 years, financier John Whitman.
Keith Nahigian, a friend and former aide, said that from her first day at the
EPA she was talking about how much she missed her husband and the home where she
grew up. She spends so little time with her husband, Whitman has jokingly
complained that "it felt like they were dating again. They'd go out and it was
like, 'So, what's going on with you? What are your interests?'" She also missed
the family's 230-acre estate and farm in Oldwick, in northwest New Jersey, known
as Pontefract, where she grew up.

Gluck also says Whitman was excited to be returning to the Garden State. But
she described her as "tired and exhausted," and the exhaustion was not only due
to how hard Whitman has worked and how far she's traveled since taking office at
the beginning of the Bush administration. "Some of the right wingers in our
party really make it difficult for Secretary of State Colin Powell and for
anybody who's a moderate in this administration, and Christie was no exception,"
Gluck said. While Whitman enjoyed a "great" personal relationship with the
president, the "pressure from the right wing" wore on her.
"The pressures of the job are enormous," Gluck says, "but this particular one
with all the philosophical tugs, had to be part and parcel of what makes one
tired." Asked to elaborate and describe conversations she'd had with Whitman to
illustrate the point, Gluck demurs.
Another GOP moderate, Rep. Christopher Shays, R-Conn., says: "This was not
unexpected.
"She did her best to be true to her principles and to serve the president,"
Shays said, "but the bottom line is that the president makes the environmental
policy."
Whitman's departure is the second such notice announced this week by a

high-ranking Bush administration official, following the notice. Monday by White
House press secretary Ari Fleischer. Whitman told White House chief of staff
Andy Card two weeks ago that she was mulling this decision, and Tuesday she told
the president she had decided it was time to go.
Both Whitman and Fleischer are Bush loyalists, but the job always came much
easier to the latter, who apparently never disagreed with one thing the
president has ever done. Whitman, conversely, was constantly seeing her moderate
environmentalism overruled.
From the beginning of the Bush administration, it was clear that Whitman
stood in left field on Bush's team. And it was there -- alone and isolated --
where she often found herself.
After a Senate hearing on Feb. 27, 2001, Whitman said that "there's no
question but that global warming is a real phenomenon, that it is occurring."
Flooding and droughts "will occur" as a result, she declared. "The science is
strong there." She suggested administration support for laws to cap the emission
of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. In a confidential memo to the president on
March 6, 2001, Whitman urged the president to address the issue of global
warming since it "is a credibility issue for the U.S. in the international
community" and "we need to appear engaged" in negotiations over the Kyoto
Protocol to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Many conservatives, however, think of global warming as quite a question,

doubt the science, and oppose such a cap -- even though on the campaign trail in
2000 President Bush had promised to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from
domestic power plants. By the Bush administration's first Earth Day, in April
2001, the president had broken his campaign pledge about carbon dioxide, had
signaled that the government would withdraw from the Kyoto accord, suspended
cleanup regulations for mining companies, and suspended the regulations on
arsenic in the drinking water that were signed into law in the 11th hour by the
outgoing Clinton administration. Whitman was given the task of announcing the
suspension of the arsenic regulation, then was sent out to reverse the decision
Page 3
once it was used as shorthand, sometimes unfairly, by the media as a symbol of

an administration hostile to any environmental concerns. Long before 9/11
changed everything, Bush's environmental record was a major subject of discord,
and Whitman was in the thick of it, usually to her detriment.
After some Clean Air Act laws were relaxed last November to benefit
coal-fired power plants, for instance, Sen. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., called
for her resignation, and angry messages were issued by the National Wildlife
Federation, the Natural Resources Defense Council and the American Lung
Association, among others.
Whitman was generally perceived as one of the more out-of-the-loop and

impotent Cabinet officials. In June 2002, the EPA sent to the United Nations a
"Climate Action Report" that blamed human activity for global warming. President
Bush said he disagreed with the report, which he dismissively described as
having been "put out by the bureaucracy." A week later, Bush rolled back "New
Source Review," a provision in the Clean Air Act requiring some industries to
embrace sometimes costly cutting-edge environmental technologies. Whitman had
embraced "New Source Review" as governor of New Jersey, so the move was seen as
a direct rejection of her views. "This decision is a victory for outdated,
polluting power plants and a devastating defeat for public health and our
environment," said Sen. Jim Jeffords, I-Vt.Still, Whitman seemed to perceive
life as having improved somewhat from the lightning-rod first months of her
tenure. In 2001, she had told the New York Times that Secretary of State Colin
Powell referred to her as a "wind dummy."
"It's a military term for when you are over the landing zone and you don't
know what the winds are," she explained. "You push the dummy out the door and
see what happens to it." In January of this year, Whitman told the National
Journal that she didn't feel "as much" like a wind dummy. "That was back when we
had both the arsenic and the Kyoto issues," she said, "which were the big ones
out there. We've been able to ratchet down over here so we haven't been quite as
visible." The controversies she'd experienced, she said, were because "it's a
terribly emotional issue. And for some people, you can never, ever, ever do
enough. For other people, anything you do gets in the way of progress."
In her resignation letter, Whitman not surprisingly chose to focus on her

greener pastures, citing administration regulations to reduce pollution from
nonroad diesel engines; the Clean School Bus USA initiative, which plans to
ensure low-emission school buses for every student by 2010; the proposed Clear
Skies Act of 2003 to reduce pollution from power plants; and an EPA plan to
clean up PCBs from the Hudson River. These are the kinds of measures that have
brought her under fire from various conservatives, who see the Bush
administration's occasional nod toward environmental concerns as weak and
something of a betrayal.
"She was just a carbon copy of anybody who's ever been head of the EPA," said
Fred L Smith Jr., founder and president of the pro-growth Competitive Enterprise
Institute. Smith says that EPA administrators traditionally "regard as their
duty to figure out what the green lobby wants and to implement it as quickly as
possible" to the detriment of the nation, and Whitman was no exception. "This
presents a dramatic opportunity for the administration to put someone in place
to reinforce the changes already put forward in Congress," where, according to
Smith, for the first time in decades the members of the House and Senate
leadership "aren't part of the green establishment. They're not locked into the
Page 4
view that the only way you can protect the environment is to lock businessmen in
jail and pass more regulations."
With such sentiments being voiced from the right, it's therefore not all that
surprising that Bush's green opponents expressed not entirely anti-Whitman
notions, a sort of "What's a nice green girl like you doing in a place like
this?" Even Lieberman, who had called for her resignation last year, said "it
would be a welcome change if Gov. Whitman's successor not only shared her
interest in environmental progress, but were allowed to pursue it. But I won't
hold my breath, though we may need to do that to survive this administration's
clean air policies."
Phil Clapp, president of the National Environmental Trust, said that "no EPA
administrator has ever been so consistently and publicly humiliated by the White
House." Though Whitman may have fought for the cause on occasion, he said, in
the end too often "the White House listened more often to industry lobbyists
than to its EPA administrator." Democratic National Committee chairman Terry
McAuliffe quizzically likened her to "a fish out of polluted water from the
minute she stepped into the Bush Cabinet." True to uberloyal form, Whitman
appeared on CNN Wednesday morning and denied that she was "leaving because of
clashes with the administration. In fact, I haven't had any." Regarding reports
of any conflicts, Whitman allowed that "there's always give and take," but "that
doesn't mean that you're having a battle about it."
Greenwood, who voted against the Bush administration's request to allow oil
and gas exploration in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, seconded Whitman's
take on the policy debates. The EPA chief "brings pretty green recommendations
to the administration, and others whose job it is to represent industry and
commerce represent other points of view. And there's pulling and tugging in the
White House."
Both Greenwood and Gluck argue that environmentalists didn't fully realize
what an advocate they had in Whitman. "I don't think you can fault Gov. Whitman
for not bringing strong environmental proposals to the administration,"
Greenwood said, though clearly she didn't always succeed.
Most recently, Whitman expressed frustration about an Office of Management

and Budget analysis that factored the worth of the life of a person older than
70 at $2.3 million while those younger than 70 were assessed to be worth more --
$3.7 million. While supporters of the move argued that it was practical and a
realistic way to gauge the effectiveness of regulations, critics saw the change
in policy as discriminatory and a way for the administration to undervalue the
importance of human life. Whitman initially defended the OMB figures, saying
critics were unfairly characterizing them, but after touring the country earlier
this month she was frequently accosted by angry environmentalists and senior
citizens over the issue. On May 7 in Baltimore, Whitman abruptly announced that
the policy had "been discontinued. EPA will not -- I repeat, not -- use an
age-adjusted analysis in decision making."
According to the Associated Press, possible successors to Whitman include

David Struhs, Florida Department of Environmental Protection secretary, and
Josephine Cooper, president of the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers.
Greenwood expressed the desire that in replacing Whitman the Bush

administration "make a selection that will send a positive message to the
environmental community." This isn't just for policy reasons; the environment is
Page 5
one of the few areas of vulnerability for the Bush administration and the GOP.
In a January Gallup poll, 56 percent of those polled favored Democrats to deal
with the environment as opposed to 27 percent favoring Republicans. Not
incidentally, GOP pollster Frank Luntz -- in a memo obtained and released by the
liberal Environmental Working Group -- issued a warning. "The environment is
probably the single issue on which Republicans in general -- and President Bush
in particular -- are most vulnerable," he wrote, and as a result Republicans
"risk losing the swing vote ... and our suburban female base could abandon us."
Through much of Whitman's tenure, however, this was never a pressing concern.
As one senior staffer from the Senate's Environment and Public Works Committee
assessed, "As long as people are scared of terrorists, most other issues fall by
the wayside."

Leaving No Tracks
By Jo Becker and Barton Gellman
Washington Post Staff Writers
Wednesday, June 27, 2007; Page A01
Sue Ellen Wooldridge, the 19th-ranking Interior Department official, arrived at her desk in
Room 6140 a few months after Inauguration Day 2001. A phone message awaited her.
"This is Dick Cheney," said the man on her voice mail, Wooldridge recalled in an interview.
"I understand you are the person handling this Klamath situation. Please call me at -- hmm, I
guess I don't know my own number. I'm over at the White House."
The vice president has intervened in many cases to undercut

long-standing environmental rules for the benefit of business.

Wooldridge wrote off the message as a prank. It was not. Cheney had reached far down the
chain of command, on so unexpected a point of vice presidential concern, because he had
spotted a political threat arriving on Wooldridge's desk.
In Oregon, a battleground state that the Bush-Cheney ticket had lost by less than half of 1
percent, drought-stricken farmers and ranchers were about to be cut off from the irrigation
water that kept their cropland and pastures green. Federal biologists said the Endangered
Species Act left the government no choice: The survival of two imperiled species of fish was
at stake.
Law and science seemed to be on the side of the fish. Then the vice president stepped in.
First Cheney looked for a way around the law, aides said. Next he set in motion a process to
challenge the science protecting the fish, according to a former Oregon congressman who
lobbied for the farmers.
Because of Cheney's intervention, the government reversed itself and let the water flow in
time to save the 2002 growing season, declaring that there was no threat to the fish. What
followed was the largest fish kill the West had ever seen, with tens of thousands of salmon
rotting on the banks of the Klamath River.
Characteristically, Cheney left no tracks.
The Klamath case is one of many in which the vice president took on a decisive role to
undercut long-standing environmental regulations for the benefit of business.
By combining unwavering ideological positions -- such as the priority of economic interests

over protected fish -- with a deep practical knowledge of the federal bureaucracy, Cheney has
made an indelible mark on the administration's approach to everything from air and water

It was Cheney's insistence on easing air pollution controls, not the personal reasons she cited
at the time, that led Christine Todd Whitman to resign as administrator of the Environmental
Protection Agency, she said in an interview that provides the most detailed account so far of
her departure.
The vice president also pushed to make Nevada's Yucca Mountain the nation's repository for
nuclear and radioactive waste, aides said, a victory for the nuclear power industry over those
with long-standing safety concerns. And his office was a powerful force behind the White
House's decision to rewrite a Clinton-era land-protection measure that put nearly a third of the
national forests off limits to logging, mining and most development, former Cheney staff
members said.
Cheney's pro-business drive to ease regulations, however, has often set the administration on
a collision course with the judicial branch.
The administration, for example, is appealing the order of a federal judge who reinstated the
forest protections after she ruled that officials didn't adequately study the environmental
consequences of giving states more development authority.
And in April, the Supreme Court rejected two other policies closely associated with Cheney.
It rebuffed the effort, ongoing since Whitman's resignation, to loosen some rules under the
Clean Air Act. The court also rebuked the administration for not regulating greenhouse gases
associated with global warming, issuing its ruling less than two months after Cheney declared
that "conflicting viewpoints" remain about the extent of the human contribution to the
problem.
In the latter case, Cheney made his environmental views clear in public. But with some
notable exceptions, he generally has preferred to operate with stealth, aided by loyalists who
owe him for their careers.
When the vice president got wind of a petition to list the cutthroat trout in Yellowstone
National Park as a protected species, his office turned to one of his former congressional
aides.
The aide, Paul Hoffman, landed his job as deputy assistant interior secretary for fish and
wildlife after Cheney recommended him. In an interview, Hoffman said the vice president
knew that listing the cutthroat trout would harm the recreational fishing industry in his home
state of Wyoming and that he "followed the issue closely." In 2001 and again in 2006,
Hoffman's agency declined to list the trout as threatened.
Hoffman also was well positioned to help his former boss with what Cheney aides said was
one of the vice president's pet peeves: the Clinton-era ban on snowmobiling in national parks.
"He impressed upon us that so many people enjoyed snowmobiling in the Tetons," former
Cheney aide Ron Christie said.
With Cheney's encouragement, the administration lifted the ban in 2002, and Hoffman
followed up in 2005 by writing a proposal to fundamentally change the way national parks
are managed. That plan, which would have emphasized recreational use over conservation,
attracted so much opposition from park managers and the public that the Interior Department
withdrew it. Still, the Bush administration continues to press for expanded snowmobile
access, despite numerous studies showing that the vehicles harm the parks' environment and
polls showing majority support for the ban.
Hoffman, now in another job at the Interior Department, said Cheney never told him what to
do on either issue -- he didn't have to.
"His genius," Hoffman said, is that "he builds networks and puts the right people in the right
places, and then trusts them to make well-informed decisions that comport with his overall
vision."
'Political Ramifications'
Robert F. Smith had grown desperate by the time he turned to the vice president for help.
Bush and Cheney, who lost Oregon by less than half of 1

percent in 2000, couldn't afford to anger thousands of
Republican farmers and ranchers in the state during the 2002
midterm elections. Above, in 2001 a sign stands in a field
near Klamath Falls, Oregon. Aurora/Getty Images
The former Republican congressman from Oregon represented farmers in the Klamath basin
who had relied on a government-operated complex of dams and canals built almost a century
ago along the Oregon-California border to irrigate nearly a quarter-million acres of arid land.
In April 2001, with the region gripped by the worst drought in memory, the spigot was shut
off.
Studies by the federal government's scientists concluded unequivocally that diverting water
would harm two federally protected species of fish, violating the Endangered Species Act of
1973. The Bureau of Reclamation was forced to declare that farmers must go without in order
to maintain higher water levels so that two types of suckerfish in Upper Klamath Lake and the
coho salmon that spawn in the Klamath River could survive the dry spell.
Farmers and their families, furious and fearing for their livelihoods, formed a symbolic
10,000-person bucket brigade. Then they took saws and blowtorches to dam gates, clashing
with U.S. marshals as water streamed into the canals that fed their withering fields, before the
government stopped the flow again.
What they didn't know was that the vice president was already on the case.
Smith had served with Cheney on the House Interior Committee in the 1980s, and the former
congressman said he turned to the vice president because he knew him as a man of the West
who didn't take kindly to federal bureaucrats meddling with private use of public land. "He
saw, as every other person did, what a ridiculous disaster shutting off the water was," Smith
said.
Cheney recognized, even before the shut-off and long before others at the White House, that
what "at first blush didn't seem like a big deal" had "a lot of political ramifications," said
Dylan Glenn, a former aide to President Bush.
Bush and Cheney couldn't afford to anger thousands of solidly Republican farmers and
ranchers during the midterm elections and beyond. The case also was rapidly becoming a test
for conservatives nationwide of the administration's commitment to fixing what they saw as
an imbalance between conservation and economics.
"What does the law say?" Christie, the former aide, recalled the vice president asking. "Isn't
there some way around it?"
Next, Cheney called Wooldridge, who was then deputy chief of staff to Interior Secretary
Gale A. Norton and the woman handling the Klamath situation.
Aides praise Cheney's habit of reaching down to officials who are best informed on a subject
he is tackling. But the effect of his calls often leads those mid-level officials scrambling to do
what they presume to be his bidding.
That's what happened when a mortified Wooldridge finally returned the vice president's call,
after receiving a tart follow-up inquiry from one of his aides. Cheney, she said, "was coming
from the perspective that the farmers had to be able to farm -- that was his concern. The fact
that the vice president was interested meant that everyone paid attention."
Cheney made sure that attention did not wander. He had Wooldridge brief his staff weekly
and, Smith said, he also called the interior secretary directly.
"For months and months, at almost every briefing it was 'Sir, here's where we stand on the
Klamath basin,'" recalled Christie, who is now a lobbyist. "His hands-on involvement, it's safe
to say, elevated the issue."
'Let the Water Flow'
There was, as it happened, an established exemption to the Endangered Species Act.
A rarely invoked panel of seven Cabinet officials, known informally as the "God Squad," is
empowered by the statute to determine that economic hardship outweighs the benefit of
protecting threatened wildlife. But after discussing the option with Smith, Cheney rejected
that course. He had another idea, one that would not put the administration on record as
advocating the extinction of endangered or threatened species.
The thing to do, Cheney told Smith, was to get science on the side of the farmers. And the
way to do that was to ask the National Academy of Sciences to scrutinize the work of the
federal biologists who wanted to protect the fish.
Smith said he told Cheney that he thought that was a roll of the dice. Academy panels are
independently appointed, receive no payment and must reach a conclusion that can withstand
peer review.
"It worried me that these are individuals who are unreachable," Smith said of the academy
members. But Cheney was firm, expressing no such concerns about the result. "He felt we
had to match the science."
Smith also wasn't sure that the Klamath case -- "a small place in a small corner of the
country" -- would meet the science academy's rigorous internal process for deciding what to
study. Cheney took care of that. "He called them and said, 'Please look at this, it's important,'"
Smith said. "Everyone just went flying at it."
William Kearney, a spokesman for the National Academies, said he was unaware of any
direct contact from Cheney on the matter. The official request came from the Interior
Department, he said.
It was Norton who announced the review, and it was Bush and his political adviser Karl Rove
who traveled to Oregon in February 2002 to assure farmers that they had the administration's
support. A month later, Cheney got what he wanted when the science academy delivered a
preliminary report finding "no substantial scientific foundation" to justify withholding water
from the farmers.
There was not enough clear evidence that proposed higher lake levels would benefit
suckerfish, the report found. And it hypothesized that the practice of releasing warm lake
water into the river during spawning season might do more harm than good to the coho,
which thrive in lower temperatures. [Read the report.]
Norton flew to Klamath Falls in March to open the head gate as farmers chanted "Let the
water flow!" And seizing on the report's draft findings, the Bureau of Reclamation
immediately submitted a new decade-long plan to give the farmers their full share of water.
When the lead biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service team critiqued the science
academy's report in a draft opinion objecting to the plan, the critique was edited out by
superiors and his objections were overruled, he said. The biologist, Michael Kelly, who has
since quit the federal agency, said in a whistle-blower claim that it was clear to him that
"someone at a higher level" had ordered his agency to endorse the proposal regardless of the
consequences to the fish.
An estimated 77,000 salmon washed up on the banks of the

Klamath River. Last year, the government declared a
"commercial fishery failure" on the West Coast. Above, dead
salmon line the banks of the Klamath River in Sept. 2002. AP
Months later, the first of an estimated 77,000 dead salmon began washing up on the banks of
the warm, slow-moving river. Not only were threatened coho dying -- so were chinook
salmon, the staple of commercial fishing in Oregon and Northern California. State and federal
biologists soon concluded that the diversion of water to farms was at least partly responsible.
Fishermen filed lawsuits and courts ruled that the new irrigation plan violated the Endangered
Species Act. Echoing Kelly's objections, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit
observed that the 10-year plan wouldn't provide enough water for the fish until year nine. By
then, the 2005 opinion said, "all the water in the world" could not save the fish, "for there will
be none to protect." In March 2006, a federal judge prohibited the government from diverting
water for agricultural use whenever water levels dropped beneath a certain point.
Last summer, the federal government declared a "commercial fishery failure" on the West
Coast after several years of poor chinook returns virtually shut down the industry, opening the
way for Congress to approve more than $60 million in disaster aid to help fishermen recover
their losses. That came on top of the $15 million that the government has paid Klamath
farmers since 2002 not to farm, in order to reduce demand.
The science academy panel, in its final report, acknowledged that its draft report was
"controversial," but it stood by its conclusions. Instead of focusing on the irrigation spigot, it
recommended broad and expensive changes to improve fish habitat. [Read the final report]
"The farmers were grateful for our decision, but we made the decision based on the scientific
outcome," said the panel chairman, William Lewis, a biologist at the University of Colorado
at Boulder. "It just so happened the outcome favored the farmers."
But J.B. Ruhl, another member of the panel and a Florida State University law professor who
specializes in endangered species cases, said the Bureau of Reclamation went "too far,"
making judgments that were not backed up by the academy's draft report. "The approach they
took was inviting criticism," Ruhl said, "and I didn't think it was supported by our
recommendations."
'More Pro-Industry'
Whitman, then head of the EPA, was on vacation with her family in Colorado when her
cellphone rang. The vice president was on the line, and he was clearly irked.
Why was the agency dragging its feet on easing pollution rules for aging power and oil
refinery plants?, Cheney wanted to know. An industry that had contributed heavily to the
Bush-Cheney campaign was clamoring for change, and the vice president told Whitman that
she "hadn't moved it fast enough," she recalled.
Whitman protested, warning Cheney that the administration had to proceed cautiously. It was
August 2001, just seven months into the first term. We need to "document this according to
the books," she said she told him, "so we don't look like we are ramrodding something
through. Because it's going to court."
But the vice president's main concern was getting it done fast, she said, and "doing it in a way
that didn't hamper industry."
Cheney's insistence on easing air pollution controls led

Powell and Cheney aide Lewis "Scooter" Libby, to resign as

At issue was a provision of the Clean Air Act known as the New Source Review, which
requires older plants that belch millions of tons of smog and soot each year to install modern
pollution controls when they are refurbished in a way that increases emissions.
Industry officials complained to the White House that even when they had merely performed
routine maintenance and repairs, the Clinton administration hit them with violations and
multimillion-dollar lawsuits. Cheney's energy task force ordered the EPA to reconsider the
rule.
Whitman had already gone several rounds with the vice president over the issue.
She and Cheney first got to know each other in one of the Nixon administration's anti-poverty
agencies, working under Donald H. Rumsfeld. When Cheney offered her the job in the Bush
administration, the former New Jersey governor marveled at how far both had come. But as
with Treasury Secretary Paul H. O'Neill, another longtime friend who owed his Cabinet post
to Cheney, Whitman's differences with the vice president would lead to her departure.
Sitting through Cheney's task force meetings, Whitman had been stunned by what she viewed
as an unquestioned belief that EPA's regulations were primarily to blame for keeping
companies from building new power plants. "I was upset, mad, offended that there seemed to
be so much head-nodding around the table," she said.
Whitman said she had to fight "tooth and nail" to prevent Cheney's task force from handing
over the job of reforming the New Source Review to the Energy Department, a battle she said
she won only after appealing to White House Chief of Staff Andrew H. Card Jr. This was an
environmental issue with major implications for air quality and health, she believed, and it
shouldn't be driven by a task force primarily concerned with increasing production.
Whitman agreed that the exception for routine maintenance and repair needed to be clarified,
but not in a way that undercut the ongoing Clinton-era lawsuits -- many of which had merit,
she said.
Cheney listened to her arguments, and as usual didn't say much. Whitman said she also met
with the president to "explain my concerns" and to offer an alternative.
She wanted to work a political trade with industry -- eliminating the New Source Review in
return for support of Bush's 2002 "Clear Skies" initiative, which outlined a market-based
approach to reducing emissions over time. But Clear Skies went nowhere. "There was never
any follow-up," Whitman said, and moreover, there was no reason for industry to embrace
even a modest pollution control initiative when the vice president was pushing to change the
rules for nothing.
She decided to go back to Bush one last time. It was a crapshoot -- the EPA administrator had
already been rolled by Cheney when the president reversed himself on a campaign promise to
limit carbon dioxide emissions linked to global warming -- so she came armed with a political
argument.
Whitman said she plunked down two sets of folders filled with news clips. This one, she said,
pointing to a stack about 2-1/2 inches thick, contained articles, mostly negative, about the
administration's controversial proposal to suspend tough new standards governing arsenic in
drinking water. And this one, she said as she pointed to a pile four or five times as thick, are
the articles about the rules on aging power plants and refineries -- and the administration
hadn't even done anything yet.
"If you think arsenic was bad," she recalled telling Bush, "look at what has already been
written about this."
But Whitman left the meeting with the feeling that "the decision had already been made."
Cheney had a clear mandate from the president on all things energy-related, she said, and
while she could take her case directly to Bush, "you leave and the vice president's still there.
So together, they would then shape policy."
What happened next was "a perfect example" of that, she said.
The EPA sent rule revisions to White House officials. The read-back was that they weren't
happy and "wanted something that would be more pro-industry," she said.
The end result, which she said was written at the direction of the White House and announced
in August 2003, vastly broadened the definition of routine maintenance. It allowed some of
the nation's dirtiest plants to make major modifications without installing costly new pollution
controls.
By that time, Whitman had already announced her resignation, saying she wanted to spend
more time with her family. But the real reason, she said, was the new rule.
"I just couldn't sign it," she said. "The president has a right to have an administrator who
could defend it, and I just couldn't."
A federal appeals court has since found that the rule change violated the Clean Air Act. In
their ruling, the judges said that the administration had redefined the law in a way that could
be valid "only in a Humpty-Dumpty world."

Tauzin to Head Drug Trade Group

BYLINE: Judy Sarasohn
SECTION: A Section; A35 , SPECIAL INTERESTS Judy Sarasohn
LENGTH: 960 words
The "Cajun ambassador" is going with the drug industry after all.
The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America announced yesterday that retiring Rep. W.J. "Billy" Tauzin
(R-La.), chairman of the powerful House Committee on Energy and Commerce until he stepped down from that post earlier this year
after complaints about his job hunting, will be the trade group's new chief.
PhRMA, the trade association for the drug industry, had approached Tauzin in January while he was in negotiations for the top
lobbying job at the Motion Picture Association of America. More importantly, the House committee oversees the drug industry as
well as the telecommunications, media and entertainment industries, and Tauzin, whose committee shared jurisdiction over Medicare,
had shortly before helped write and promote a controversial Medicare prescription drug benefit for the elderly.
Tauzin said there were no dealings with the drug industry in exchange for his work on the bill. But he stepped down from the
chairmanship in early February and put off further job talks.
Tauzin, 61, also spent most of the year fighting for his life after he was diagnosed with intestinal cancer. Tauzin told our
colleague Jeff Birnbaum yesterday that he is feeling well and, in fact, is well. He accepted his new job in part because of his illness.
"When you become a patient, you get a sense of how incredibly valuable these medicines are," he said. In a statement released
by the trade group, Tauzin said further, "As I worked through my recovery, I realized that I wanted to work in an industry whose
mission is no less than saving and enhancing lives."
Tauzin's appointment took flak from Public Citizen, the consumer advocacy group. "It's a sad commentary on politics in
Washington that a member of Congress who pushed through a major piece of legislation benefiting the drug industry, gets the job
leading that industry," Public Citizen President Joan Claybrook said in a statement.
The Center for Responsive Politics reported that Tauzin raised more than $218,000 in campaign contributions from
pharmaceutical manufacturers over the past 15 years, with $91,500 of that in the 2002 election cycle, the first cycle for Tauzin as
chairman of the House Energy and Commerce.
Public Citizen called on Congress to prohibit its members from negotiating for jobs while in Congress; increase the waiting
period before a former lawmaker could lobby his former colleagues, from one to three years; and eliminate privileges that give
former lawmakers access to the Senate and House floors and other members-only areas.
Tauzin, who has served stints as a Republican and a Democrat, starts his new job Jan. 3. He succeeds Alan Holmer, who had
announced in January that he would be retiring.

Former Environmental Protection Agency administrator Christine Todd Whitman, who left the Bush administration last year
after bruising fights within the administration, is setting up the Whitman Strategy Group, a consulting shop focusing on, of course,
environmental issues.
The firm is already up and running in New Jersey, the home state of the former GOP governor, and a D.C. office will be opened
next month by EPA officials Jessica Furey and Susan Spencer Mulvaney, who this week announced their plans to resign.
The Whitman group plans to provide policy and regulatory expertise in energy and power, water quality and other issues to
corporations, governments and countries "interested in improving their environmental stewardship," Whitman said.
Creating the company "is a way to stay involved in public policy and make a difference," she said in an interview. The group
will have "the capacity" to lobby "but that's not what we are about."
Whitman actually found herself last month lobbying her former Cabinet colleague Interior Secretary Gale A. Norton on behalf of
Citgo Petroleum Corp., which wants federal protection to preserve Petty's Island, N.J., which it owns. Whitman was called in by her
former chief of staff when governor, Michael Torpey of TCAP Partners.
Besides Furey and Mulvaney, Whitman will be joined by Jane M. Kenny, who managed the EPA's response to the indoor air
quality crisis in Lower Manhattan after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks; and Eileen McGinnis, who was chief of staff to Whitman at the
EPA and the governor's office.
The fact that her first four partners are women, Whitman said, "just worked out that way."
Retiring Rep. Jack Quinn (R-N.Y.), a six-term member, will be joining Cassidy & Associates as president next month. Quinn, a
strong supporter of Amtrak, was chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure subcommittee on railroads and served on the
House Veterans' Affairs Committee.
For those of you who are keeping track: Former House member Marty Russo (D-Ill.), who was president and vice chairman,
assumes the title of chief executive and senior vice chairman, continuing to report directly to chairman Gerald S.J. Cassidy. Gregg
Hartley remains as chief operating officer and assumes the title of vice chairman.
Leaving Cassidy: Jared Craighead, who is going home to Missouri to be senior policy adviser to Gov.-elect Matt Blunt (R).
Craighead is a former aide to Blunt's father, now House Majority Whip Roy Blunt (R-Mo.).
The National Association of Manufacturers has added two new folks -- and they're not strangers to new NAM President John M.
Engler, the former Republican governor of Michigan.
LeAnne Wilson, who managed the state's Washington office for Engler, has signed on as a senior adviser to Engler; and Dana
Lee Cole, former Michigan business ombudsman, comes on board as vice president and corporate secretary.
Engler said Wilson will be "doing a little bit of everything" in her new post at NAM.

after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"We've put together a very talented team who are eager to assist corporations
and governments by providing sound and useful information, policy expertise and
strategic policy and regulatory advice," Whitman said.
Whitman Strategy Group already has New Jersey offices in Peapack and
Gladstone Borough. Its Washington offices will open in January.
Whitman was governor of New Jersey from 1994 to 2001, when she left to become
administrator of the EPA. She resigned from that post last year.

Former EPA Chief Christine Todd Whitman Joins TI

Board of Directors
SECTION: FINANCIAL NEWS
LENGTH: 416 words
DATELINE: DALLAS Dec. 4
Texas Instruments (NYSE: TXN) (TI) today announced that Christine Todd
Whitman, former Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and
former Governor of the state of New Jersey, has been elected to its Board of
Directors.
Gov. Whitman, 57, has had a distinguished career in government at the state
and national levels. Most recently, she served as Administrator of the EPA in
the cabinet of President George W. Bush from January 2001 to June 2003. Prior to
her federal service, she was Governor of New Jersey, serving two terms from
January 1994 to December 2000, where she gained a reputation of combining fiscal
conservatism with moderate social policies.
"TI is fortunate to have a leader of Gov. Whitman's caliber join its Board of
Directors. Her broad executive and administrative experience in managing large,
complex organizations and her pragmatic approach to problem solving will benefit
the deliberations of the TI Board. In addition, her experience on a wide range
of public policy issues -- from education to the environment, from taxes to the
economy -- will be a valuable asset to TI," said TI Chairman, President and CEO
Tom Engibous.
Earlier in her career, Gov. Whitman served on the Somerset County Board of
Freeholders from 1982 to 1988, where she was a county commissioner. In 1988, she
was appointed to head the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities. She resigned the
position in 1990 to run for the U.S. Senate. Her strong showing made her a
leading candidate in the 1993 gubernatorial race, in which she defeated the
incumbent and became New Jersey's first female governor.
Gov. Whitman earned a bachelor's degree in government from Wheaton College
in Massachusetts in 1968.
Texas Instruments Incorporated provides innovative DSP and Analog

technologies to meet our customers' real world signal processing requirements.

EPA recognizes Texas Instruments as a Clean Air

Excellence Award Winner
SECTION: ENVIRONMENTAL EDITORS
LENGTH: 512 words
DATELINE: DALLAS, July 2
There are four categories of awards: clean air technology, community action,
education/outreach, and regulatory policy innovations. TI and Matros
Technologies Inc., (MT) were recognized for innovative clean air technology they
developed jointly, which improves abatement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
in semiconductor manufacturing.
"This year's Clean Air Excellence Award winners' dedication to creating a

cleaner tomorrow is truly a breath of fresh air," said EPA Administrator Stephen
L. Johnson. "From local to state governments, companies to citizen groups, these
award-winners are helping EPA deliver healthier air and healthier lives to all
Americans."
TI and Matros Technology initially collaborated to reduce emissions at three

of TI's semiconductor manufacturing facilities. As a result of the joint
research and development, the companies discovered added environmental benefits.
The installation of the Matros copper-chromium catalyst reduced NOx emissions

and improved VOC performance. The catalyst installation made it possible to
combine the low temperature of catalytic oxidation with the high thermal
efficiency of regenerative heat exchange, providing three primary environmental
benefits.
First, due to the much lower oxidation temperature, the regenerative

catalytic oxidizer operates using 50 to 60 percent less fuel and generates
approximately 40 percent less NOx. Second, due to the nature of the catalyst,
greater than 99 percent destruction efficiency can be maintained longer,
improving energy recuperation and reducing maintenance activities. Finally,
using MT's catalyst reduces the volume of packing material disposed annually.

EPA recognizes Texas Instruments as a Clean Air Excellence Award Winner U.S.
Newswire July 2, 2008 Wednesday 10:00 AM EST
Additionally, this technology reduces the use of natural gas as well as

materials and labor and disposal costs. The collaboration of TI and Matros
Technologies has successfully reduced air emissions and material disposal at TI
and can be applied globally to similar facilities in the industry.
The Clean Air Excellence Awards recognize and honor outstanding, innovative
efforts that make progress in achieving cleaner air. The Awards were established
in 2000, at the recommendation of the Clean Air Act Advisory Committee (CAAAC),
a senior-level policy group that advises EPA on implementing the Clean Air Act.

DATELINE: HARTFORD, Conn. Dec. 10
The United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX) Board of Directors today elected
two new members, expanding the board to 13 and including 11 independent
directors. The new members are Christine Todd Whitman, former U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Administrator and New Jersey Governor, and Harold "Terry"

services, education and business information markets.
"We think Christie Whitman's and Terry McGraw's priorities and experiences
fit exceptionally well with UTC," said UTC Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
George David. "I could not be happier than to welcome them.
"Environmental leadership has marked Christie's public service for a decade.

In New Jersey, she established public-private partnerships that led to
measurably cleaner air, water and land and arose from her conviction that
environmental and economic goals are complementary. UTC's sustainability goals
and performance share this conviction," said David. "During her time at the EPA,
President Bush's Clear Skies initiative was introduced, and landmark brownfields
legislation to revive abandoned industrial sites was passed.
"Under Terry's management, McGraw-Hill has built a strong record of market

leadership and financial performance, including consistent earnings growth and
excellent shareholder returns. The constituent companies, including Standard &
Poor's in the Financial Services segment and BusinessWeek in the Information and
Media Services segment, along with the McGraw-Hill Education companies are
market leaders," David noted.
Whitman, 57, served as EPA administrator from 2001 to 2003 and as New
Jersey's 50th governor from 1993 to 2000. She was the state's first woman
governor, and she appointed its first female attorney general, its first African
American state Supreme Court justice, and the court's first female chief
justice. Prior to her election, she headed the New Jersey Board of Public
Utilities. She holds a bachelor's degree in government from Wheaton College in
Massachusetts and serves on the boards of S.C. Johnson, Texas Instruments, and
the Chicago Climate Exchange, an organization dedicated to reducing greenhouse
gas emissions.

New coalition for nuclear power prepares to debut

next week
BYLINE: Daniel Horner, Washington
SECTION: Pg. 4 Vol. 47 No. 16
LENGTH: 525 words
A new industry-backed coalition, co-chaired by former heads of Greenpeace and

the Environmental Protection Agency, is preparing to add to the push for
increased use of nuclear energy and will be formally launched with a press
conference April 24, a spokesman for the group said this week.
Advance notice of the group ? called the CASEnergy Coalition, for "clean and
safe energy" ? came in an April 16 op-ed piece in the Washington Post by Patrick
Moore, the co-founder of Greenpeace and current chair and chief scientist of
Greenspirit Strategies, a communications consulting firm. Moore was identified
in the byline of the Post piece as co-chair of the new group.
Moore left Greenpeace in 1986. In recent months, he has been an outspoken

advocate of nuclear power (NW, 10 Nov. '05, 1).
The other co-chair is Christine Todd Whitman, the former governor of New
Jersey and head of the EPA in the George W. Bush administration.
The Nuclear Energy Institute provides the coalition's funding, he said. The
group's mission is not redundant with NEI's, he said, because CASEnergy is "more
focused on education." According to its web site ?
http://www.cleansafeenergy.org ? the group "will actively promote nuclear energy
as a clean, safe, dependable source of power." The site says, "Through news
conferences, media events, grassroots advocacy and issues education, the
CASEnergy Coalition will ensure that everyone from consumers to policymakers
will have the necessary tools to make sure they can each make an informed
decision about nuclear energy."
The group's members include many of the major US nuclear utilities, including
Exelon, Entergy, Duke Energy, and Southern. Some nuclear fleet operators ? such
as the Tennessee Valley Authority, Progress Energy, and FirstEnergy ? were not
listed as members. But the spokesman said new members could still be added.

New coalition for nuclear power prepares to debut next week Nucleonics Week
April 20, 2006
In addition to the utilities, the roster also includes major nuclear players
such as USEC and Sandia National Laboratories, as well as organizations whose
ties to nuclear are less obvious.
One member, the 60 Plus Association, describes itself as "a non-partisan

seniors advocacy group with a free enterprise, less government, less taxes
approach to seniors issues." Jim Martin, the group's president, said in an
e-mail to Platts, "I'm asked to join a lot of groups, and if I agree with their
mission (as with CASEnergy Coalition) I usually do so, especially if I see a way
to reduce energy costs to senior citizens and at the same time, advance
ecologically sound practices."
Another member is the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States.
The roster also includes a number of individuals, including two churchmen.

One of them, the Reverend Willie Toone of Detroit's North End Church of God in
Christ, said in a telephone interview he supported "less expensive" energy that
would "enhance the environment."
The CASEnergy spokesman said the coalition had an interest in recruiting

"non-traditional" organizations and was working in many states to attract civic
leaders.
The CASEnergy press conference is scheduled for 11 am Monday at the National

Press Club in Washington, DC, the spokesman said.

Republicans just won; is it 2008 already?;

No time to let the guard down. Two books by GOP
stars chart different courses for the future.
BYLINE: Scott Martelle, Times Staff Writer
SECTION: CALENDAR; Calendar Desk; Part E; Pg. 1
LENGTH: 1405 words
The first confetti has yet to be thrown for President Bush's inauguration
Thursday but two new books are already looking to the 2008 election and what the
Republican Party needs to do to retain power.
The options: Stay true to the socially conservative positions that helped
Republicans win in the short term -- they control the White House and both
houses of Congress. Or adopt more moderate social positions, reduce the
Christian right's influence and try to coax the party more toward the middle in
hopes of dominating the political future.
In the conservative corner stands former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, whose
"Winning the Future" reads like a presidential candidate's manifesto -- which it
might be. Last week, Gingrich fanned speculation about a 2008 run by promising
to take his book tour to Iowa and New Hampshire -- tiny book markets but the
leadoff states in the nominating process.
In the other corner is former Bush cabinet member and past New Jersey Gov.
Christine Todd Whitman, who argues in "It's My Party Too" that the Republicans
could lose their gains of the last decade if they do not distance themselves
from "social fundamentalists" and adopt more moderate positions represented by
popular party figures such as Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), former New York City
Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Both major parties have long endured internal squabbles over how far right
the Republicans should go and how far left the Democrats in a nation where the
key votes are in the center. What's unusual about these two books is their
timing -- the orchestras for the inaugural balls haven't even tuned up yet and
the Republican family fight has already started.
"This is awfully early for a 2008 ideological battle," said Larry J. Sabato,
a political analyst at the University of Virginia. "Usually it's the midterm
[elections] -- that's when you start thinking about the next presidential race."
Page 2
Republicans just won; is it 2008 already?; No time to let the guard down. Two
books by GOP stars chart different courses for the future. Los Angeles Times
It's also significant that Republicans, rather than out-of-power Democrats,

are raising these issues now.
"Normally, it's the party that has lost a couple of elections that introduces
all the books with the wailing and the gnashing of teeth about the future,"
Sabato said.
Democrats and progressives did most of their wailing last year, a banner
season for political titles from both sides of the aisle at a time when reader
interest in politics was high. But that interest has waned. This week's Los
Angeles Times nonfiction bestseller list had one political book, "The Daily
Show's" Jon Stewart's "America," among the top 15. In mid-October, five
political or current events books made the list.
"I find it odd, and not particularly cogent" to market a political book now,
said Doug Dutton, adding that interest in the Gingrich and Whitman books has
been light at his Dutton's bookstores in Brentwood and Beverly Hills. "It
doesn't make any particular sense to me."
Unless, he said, the books are intended to stake out ground for the
politicians' futures -- which is overtly the case for Gingrich but less clear
for Whitman.
During his two decades in Congress, including four years as speaker, Gingrich
built a reputation as a political bomb-thrower. His book continues in a similar
vein, marking the 10th anniversary of his famous "Contract With America" with
this new "21st Century Contract With America," the book's subtitle.
The book begins with a litmus test, asking readers to agree or disagree on a
scale of 1 to 10 with politically loaded statements such as, "Men who assault
pregnant women and kill the unborn child should be prosecuted for murder." Other
statements include "Believe in God" and "We should be allowed to say, 'One
nation under God' in the Pledge of Allegiance." Readers who tally more than 51
points out of a possible 100 are invited to continue reading: "This book is
about how you can protect and defend America's traditions and values."
Gingrich describes a split America. On the one side are people "who know how
integral God is to American exceptionalism," place American national interests
ahead of international concerns, "insist on a judiciary that understands the
centrality of God in American history," and see hard work as the underpinning of
a good economy.
They are opposed by "elites who find it acceptable to drive God out of public
life." Efforts to build a strong economy are "hampered by trial lawyers who seek
their own enrichment instead of justice; by labor unions that insist on special
deals and protection instead of competition; and by bureaucracies that emphasize
process over achievement."
In an echo of President Nixon's famous "silent majority," Gingrich's

conservatives are victims. Gingrich writes: "Since the 1960s, the conservative
majority has been intimidated, manipulated and bullied by the liberal minority.
The liberal elites who dominate academia, the courts, the press, and much of the
government bureaucracy share an essentially European secular-socialist value
system."
Yet since the 1968 election, Republicans have occupied the Oval Office 24
Page 3
years to 12 for the Democrats, the courts are likely to continue a rightward
shift over the next four years and Congress is even more solidly Republican than
two years ago.
Where Gingrich's book is doctrinaire, Whitman's is personal, part memoir and

part analysis of how the Republican party can return to what she sees as the
successes of the Nixon and Reagan eras -- when conservatives and moderates
coexisted under the party's "big umbrella."
Whitman attended her first Republican National Convention in 1956 as the

9-year-old daughter of prominent New Jersey Republicans, and describes her early
political years as a "Rockefeller Republican." She's a fiscal conservative and
supporter of legalized abortion who found herself isolated after accepting
Bush's appointment to head the Environmental Protection Agency. She quit two
years later, getting poor marks from both environmentalists and pro-development
groups.
Whitman believes the party's future is to be found in the past. Despite a

reputation as a conservative, she writes, Nixon presided as a moderate, opening
detente with the Soviet Union and diplomatic relations with China, creating the
EPA, urging creation of a national health insurance plan and increasing funding
for the National Endowment for the Arts.
Whitman includes obligatory slaps at current Democrats, blaming their anger

over the 2000 recount as fuel for the partisanship fire that swept Washington in
2001. But she also blames social conservatives under the "it takes two to fight"
rule, and says the radical right has sought to purge moderates from the party --
including trying to unseat incumbents such as Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania
for not being conservative enough.
"The leaders of these groups seek to impose rigid litmus tests on Republican
candidates and appear determined to drive out of the party anyone who doesn't
subscribe to their beliefs in their entirety," Whitman writes. "As far as
they're concerned, the Republican Party is not my party too; it's their party.
Period."
Even Reagan accepted moderates, she writes, and his electoral coalition of
conservatives and "Reagan Democrats" is the template the party needs to use now.
Whitman argues that if the party fails to move back to more moderate positions
it risks mirroring the Democrats' collapse after that party moved to the left in
the late-1960s and early 1970s.
Since then, only two Democrats have made it to the White House. In 1976,
Jimmy Carter beat President Ford, who hadn't been elected to the office in the
first place, after Ford pardoned Nixon in the Watergate scandal. And Bill
Clinton won a split field in 1992 with a mix of charisma and policies that
appealed to the moderate middle.
Merle Black, a political analyst at Atlanta's Emory University, doubts many

Republicans will heed Whitman's call because the party has far more
conservatives -- the people Whitman believes would rather lose than compromise
-- than centrists. The parties have moved to political poles, Black said, and it
will take more than a book to change such gravitational forces.
For the Republicans, he said, that means playing to the Christian right. And
in this case, politics will likely drive book sales -- at least among the
Page 4
faithful.
"Moderates supplement the conservative base of the party," Black said. "I
think, without having read the books, Gingrich's will resonate more with
Republicans than Whitman's."

WADDELL EVENT A SHOWCASE FOR CENTRIST CAMPAIGN

BYLINE: Jeff E. Schapiro Times-Dispatch Staff Writer Contact Jeff E. Sc
SECTION: AREA/STATE; Pg. B-1
LENGTH: 620 words
Katherine B. Waddell reached across party lines -- and the James River --
last night to round up votes and big bucks for her bid to unseat Del. Bradley P.
Marrs, R-Chesterfield.
Waddell, bolting the Republican Party to challenge Marrs as an independent,

expected to raise $50,000 at a cocktail reception in Richmond's West End
attended by Republicans, Democrats and independents from the city and
Chesterfield County. Waddell depicts herself as a can-do centrist, drawing a
contrast with the sharply conservative Marrs, who drew fire from Republicans and
Democrats last month for spotlighting in a fundraising letter the homosexuality
of one of Waddell's top donors.
While U.S. Sen. George Allen, R-Va., was the headliner at Marrs' kickoff last
month, Waddell enlisted a prominent moderate Republican from outside Virginia:
former Gov. Jane Swift of Massachusetts, that state's first woman chief
executive and the first governor in the nation to give birth while in office.
"My party needs to have broad appeal, and if you look at our success at the
state level, it's because we've had strong moderates," said Swift, now a partner
in a venture-capital firm. She said expanding the centrist Republican presence
occasionally requires "extraordinary tactical decisions" -- such as Waddell's
independent candidacy.
Swift was a stand-in for former Gov. Christine Todd Whitman of New Jersey,
who canceled for undisclosed personal reasons. Head of the Environmental
Protection Agency during President Bush's first term, Whitman started a
political-action committee of moderate Republicans -- It's My Party Too-PAC --
of which Swift is a member of the board of advisors.
The Marrs-Waddell contest in the Richmond-Chesterfield 68th House District is

closely watched because it reflects the fissure within the Republican Party:
social and religious conservatives hostile to taxes, abortion and gay rights
versus Main Street moderates who favor aid for education and roads, support
abortion rights and decry the perceived demonization of homosexuals.
Waddell said in an interview that Marrs, seeking a third term in the

Republican-controlled House of Delegates, is "someone who is representing the

few." Waddell, who worked for Republicans John H. Hager and Jim Gilmore when
they served as lieutenant governor and attorney general, respectively, said
Marrs' political base is "really the minority in the 68th House District."
Waddell said Marrs' disputed fundraising appeal had generated interest in the
campaign: "It has had somewhat of an impact and has brought some positive
attention. Voters don't like to see groups of people discriminated against and
groups of people attacked."
Her supporters believe Marrs, who has raised $93,000 to Waddell's $58,000, is
vulnerable this year because his opposition is no longer split. Marrs was
unopposed in 2003.
When he first ran in 2001, Marrs was elected with 41 percent of the vote.
Former Richmond Vice Mayor John A. Conrad, an independent who played host to the
Waddell reception at his house on Cary Street Road, pulled 24 percent.
Chesterfield County Supervisor Edward B. Barber, a Democrat also backing
Waddell, received 35 percent.
"I think she has an advantage in that it's a two-person race," Conrad said of
Waddell. "Brad has a base of 40 percent. So there's 60 percent in play."
Richmond Councilman William J. Pantele, a Democrat, said many members of his

party will support Waddell because of her centrist credentials.
"Even though it's a state delegate race, it's still in many ways a local
election, and many people in the district are in the moderate range," Pantele
said. "Democrats are looking for someone who will work with the whole .*.*. and
transcend ideological extremes."

More Than Humanitarianism
Task Force Report No. 56
Task Force Report
This Council-sponsored Independent Task Force finds that Africa is of growing strategic importance to the United
States in addition to being an important humanitarian concern. In a world where economic opportunity, security
threats, disease, and even support for democracy transcend borders, a policy based on humanitarian concerns
alone serves neither U.S. interests, nor Africa’s. Furthermore, the Task Force finds that critical humanitarian
interests would be better served by a more comprehensive U.S. approach toward Africa; nor is it valid to treat
Africa more as an object of charity than a diverse continent with partners the United States can work with to
advance shared objectives.

BYLINE: US States News
LENGTH: 499 words
DATELINE: SCHUYKILL HAVEN, Pa.
Pennsylvania State University at Schuykill issued the following news

release:
The final installment in the public series features Governor Christine Todd
Whitman, a highly respected leader and advisor on environmental issues affecting
communities, nations, and private industries. The topic of Governor Whitman's
speech is "A Healthy Environment and A Healthy Economy: Finding the Green in
Being Green". The event will take place at 7 p.m. in the Morgan Auditorium on
campus.
Governor Whitman served in the Cabinet of President George W. Bush as

Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency from 2001 to
2003. Before that, she served for seven years as Governor of New Jersey, the
first woman elected to that position in state history.
As Governor, Christie Whitman earned praise from both Republicans and

Democrats for her commitment to preserve a record amount of New Jersey land as
permanent green space. As EPA Administrator, she promoted common-sense
environmental improvements such as watershed-based water protection policies.
She championed regulations requiring non-road diesel engines to reduce sulfur
emissions by more than 95 percent. She also established the first federal
program to promote redevelopment and reuse of "brownfields", that is, previously
contaminated industrial sites.
Governor Whitman is now the President of the Whitman Strategy Group, a

consulting firm that serves both government and business clients on
environmental and other public policy issues. She is co-chair of the National
Smart Growth Council and is a member of the governors' board of the nonprofit
Oquirrh Institute, which seeks innovative solutions in environmental management
and other critical public policy areas. Governor Whitman serves on the corporate
boards of Texas Instruments, United Technologies, and S.C. Johnson and Son, Inc.
Although she no longer holds public office, Governor Whitman continues to

serve the citizens of the United States. She is a public member of the
seven-member Board of Directors of the Millennium Challenge Corporation. Chaired
by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and U.S. Treasury Secretary John

PR # 192 April 29, 2004
PROMINENT LEADERS JOIN RVCC BOARD TO PROMOTE CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND

VOLUNTEERISM
Prominent leaders in government, business, higher education and community service are serving as
members of a special advisory board formed by Raritan Valley Community College (RVCC) to promote
civic engagement and volunteerism.
The board, which held its first meeting today, will guide the College in developing new and expanded
programs that foster a community that values community leadership, educational and business
partnerships, respect and appreciation for diversity, as well as service and volunteerism.
Earlier this year, the College established a Center for Civic Engagement and Volunteerism. The Center
brings together a number of existing College programs and resources, including the Institute for
Holocaust & Genocide Studies; the Paul Robeson Institute for Ethics, Leadership and Social Justice;
Service Learning; and training programs for government, nonprofit organizations and teachers. New
Center initiatives include the Institute for Business and Government Partnerships, the Institute for
Intercultural Understanding, the Institute for Community Policy Research and a Leadership Program.
Serving as chair of the Civic Engagement and Volunteerism Advisory Board is Catherine Langley,
former publisher of the Hunterdon County Democrat and D. H. Moreau Books. Active with a number of
community groups, Langley has served on the Boards of Directors of such organizations as United Way
of Hunterdon County, Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce, Anderson House, the Flemington
Business Association and the New Jersey Press Association.
She has received numerous awards and distinctions for her contributions to the community, including
the “Woman in Business Award” (Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce, 2002), “Distinguished
Citizen Award” (Central New Jersey Council, Boy Scouts of America, 2000), “Woman of Achievement
Award” (Rolling Hills Girl Scout Council, 1997) and “Citizen of the Year” (B.P.O.E. Lodge #1935,
1996).
“Civic engagement is an essential element of the learning process, as well an obligation of the College to
its communities,” said Dr. G. Jeremiah Ryan, president of RVCC. “The College is committed to
enhancing our civic engagement activities over the next five years. We are honored that distinguished
leaders in government, business, higher education and community service will be supporting and
guiding our efforts. Our goal is to promote greater civic responsibility among the College community
and citizens in the communities we serve.”

For more information, please contact MCC’s Office of Public Affairs.
The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is a United States Government corporation designed to work with some of the poorest
countries in the world. Established in January 2004, MCC is based on the principle that aid is most effective when it reinforces good
governance, economic freedom and investments in people. MCC’s mission is to reduce global poverty through the promotion of sustainable
economic growth.
Before a country can become eligible to receive assistance, MCC looks at their performance on independent and transparent policy
indicators. MCC selects eligible countries for Compact Assistance.
Countries that have demonstrated significant improvement in policy indicators but do not yet qualify for a Compact grant may be eligible for
Threshold Program assistance. Threshold programs are smaller grants designed to help improve performance on specific indicators.
Led by a Chief Executive Officer and overseen by a Board of Directors, MCC is responsible for the stewardship of the Millennium Challenge
Account (MCA), which receives funds appropriated by Congress every year.
Reducing
Poverty Through
Economic Growth
The MCC focuses specifically on promoting sustainable economic growth to reduce poverty through investments in areas such as
transportation, water and industrial infrastructure, agriculture, education, private sector development, and capacity building.
Good Policies Matter

Using objective indicators, countries are selected to receive assistance based on their performance in governing justly, investing in
their citizens, and encouraging economic freedom. Because corruption undermines every aspect of sustainable development, MCC has
made fighting it one of its highest priorities.
Country Ownership
MCC works in partnership with eligible countries which are responsible for identifying the greatest barriers to their own development;
for developing their own priorities for a compact, with input from the public, as well as civil, political, and private sector actors; and
for implementing compact programs once they have been approved. Participation in the MCA program requires high-level engagement
and leadership by the partner government, as well as civil society and other domestic stakeholders to ensure the effectiveness and
sustainability of an MCC investment.
Focus on Results
Assistance goes to those countries that have developed well-designed programs with clear objectives, benchmarks to measure progress,
procedures to ensure fiscal accountability for the use of our grants, and a plan for effective monitoring and objective evaluation of
results. Programs are designed to enable sustainable progress even after the funding under the Compact has ended, and each Compact
is designed to be finished in less then five years.

Whitman visits New Brunswick to seek recruits to

battle cancer
BYLINE: SHARON WATERS STAFF WRITER
SECTION: B; Pg. 1
LENGTH: 537 words
NEW BRUNSWICK: Former Gov. Christie Whitman hit the streets of New Brunswick
yesterday to campaign - not for a political cause but for cancer prevention and
awareness.
The effort marked the creation of The Cancer Institute of New Jersey
Leadership Council, which aims to raise awareness of the institute's programs
and increase participation of underserved populations in cancer clinical trials.
"It's better than doing it for a political campaign. It's for a good cause,"
said Whitman as she stood in front of the New Brunswick train station
distributing cards with information about cancer prevention and the institute.
The Leadership Council is comprised of Whitman and 24 other women from

industry, government, advocacy and philanthropy. The group's first objective is
to increase by 25 percent the participation of underserved populations in
treatment and prevention trials before the end of 2006.
"It is these clinical trials ... that develop the breakthrough therapies that
we hope for and that we all applaud when they occur," said Dr. William N. Hait,
director of the Cancer Institute.
The initiative, which aims to reach minorities and low-income people, must
dispel the suspicion of some groups that clinical trials equate to experiments,
said Hait.
Cancer survivor Rhonda Berry spoke yesterday about how she didn't want to be
a "guinea pig" in a clinical trial. But as she faced stage-four breast cancer,
she agreed to participate in trials at the Cancer Institute.
"The most important thing to me was surviving. I wanted to live," said Berry,
a Trenton resident who now encourages other African-American women to consider
clinical trials.
About 15 percent of the patients in clinical trials at the Cancer Institute

are African-American, said Hait. The representation is greater than the
percentage of African Americans in the area and the state, but the institute
still has "a long way to go to where we want to be," he said.

(East Brunswick, NJ) September 15, 2004 Wednesday
Besides the Leadership Council efforts, the institute reaches out to

underserved populations by coordinating with the Eric B. Chandler Health Center
in New Brunswick, accepting patients regardless of their ability to pay and
doing research on the best approach for describing clinical trials to
minorities, Hait said.
The campaign to increase minority participation in clinical trials will focus

on a 10-mile radius of the Cancer Institute.
"We felt it was important to take care of the community that is right here in
our very own back yard," said ladies professional golfer and Leadership Council
co-chair Val Skinner.
A dozen volunteers, including Whitman, fanned out in downtown New Brunswick

to distribute 500 informational cards. North Brunswick resident Verna Ingram,
20, was happy to accept a card from the former Republican governor and head of
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
"It's appropriate. She's out with the people, going around. You don't see
that too often, and if you do, it's usually for a political campaign," said
Ingram, a student at Hofstra University.
More information about clinical trials and cancer prevention and treatment is
available at 1-866-654-9898 or www.nj ctc.org.

FINAL EDITION
National group taps Whitman for its anti-sprawl

efforts
BYLINE: STEVE CHAMBERS, STAR-LEDGER STAFF
SECTION: NEW JERSEY; Pg. 22
LENGTH: 629 words
When Smart Growth America decided to put together a high-powered council to

help the nonprofit group wage war on sprawl, New Jersey quite logically figured
into the national search.
After all, the state spawned some of the nation's first upscale suburbs and
planned developments, not to mention hundreds of cookie-cutter suburbs and
cul-de-sacs. No state is more developed or more densely populated.
This morning, when the National Smart Growth Council meets for the first
time in Washington, D.C., former Gov. Christie Whitman will co-chair the
gathering with former Maryland Gov. Parris Glendening.
Whitman, who resigned last year as administrator of the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency, said yesterday that she expects to devote a lot of time to
the effort.
"You see the impact every day of bad planning," she said. "As head of the
EPA, I would see as I flew into every city the layer of smog, the traffic
backup. It's an issue we need to deal with."
Don Chen, executive director and CEO of Smart Growth America, a nationwide
coalition of groups working to promote pedestrian-friendly development, said the
council was an effort to "kick it up a notch."
The group also stresses open-space preservation, concentrating development

around mass transit, urban redevelopment and affordable housing.
"This is new territory for us," said Chen. "Mostly we've been policy wonks
like me. This is an opportunity to engage some prominent people, an opportunity
for them to get together and advocate for smarter growth."
The 17-member council includes other high-profile political figures such as

Henry Cisneros, secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development under President Bill Clinton, and William Hudnut, a former
congressman and mayor of Indianapolis with respected urban redevelopment

credentials.
It also includes business leaders James Dodge, CEO of Providence Energy

Corp., and Robin Chase, a co-founder of Zipcar, which allows urban residents to
"borrow" cars parks around metropolitan areas for a by-the-hour charge.
Chen said the organization was pleased that Whitman accepted its invitation
to join the council because she was "great at EPA. She was a powerful advocate
for smart growth." Whitman, who had a sometimes- contentious relationship with
environmentalists while governor, championed a 1998 bond initiative that brought
$2 billion for open-space deals. She later stressed some important smart-growth
favorites, such as policy changes that relaxed building codes when older
buildings are redeveloped.
Gov. James E. McGreevey has publicly embraced smart growth and worked to
strengthen the State Plan, which seeks to channel growth into cities, older
suburbs and newly defined rural centers.
Whitman said that while she ordered state departments to prioritize projects
that fit the State Plan, she never felt comfortable making it mandatory.
"The minute you force it down people's throats, then they get their backs up
and you lose the ability to have dialogue," she said.
Chen said the organization never considered McGreevey for the council, in
part, because it wanted a bipartisan group. Glendening, who won national
recognition for cracking down on state subsidies for sprawling development, is a
Democrat, and Whitman is a Republican.
Whitman has gained a high national profile - and her share of conservative
critics - for espousing moderate positions within the party. In January, she
will publish a book, "It's My Party, Too."
As for the council, she said she is hopeful it will be able to create new
partnerships between business and forward-thinking government.
"These are well-respected officials with constituencies who have put smart
growth principles into practice successfully," she said. "The point is to show
people these things can work."

GLACIER BAY NATIONAL PARK & PRESERVE
LETTER FROM THE BOARD CHAIR AND PRESIDENT
This year was full of victories for NPCA and, more importantly, for the parks themselves. We
helped to shape and catalyze an ambitious initiative that will increase investments in our nation-
al parks in anticipation of their centennial anniversary in 2016. Following our encouragement
and guidance, the Bush Administration’s 2008 federal budget proposed a ten-year “Centennial
Initiative” to begin restoring our national parks in preparation for their second century.
© CRAIG OBEY / NPCA

Thanks to strong bipartisan support from Congress, which NPCA helped to generate, the
parks ultimately received an operations increase exceeding $122 million—one of the largest in
decades. After a year of debate involving the Bush Administration, NPCA, and park friends
groups, Congress also approved $25 million to begin funding an envisioned 10-year program to
match private philanthropy for the parks with additional federal support.
This centennial initiative has been launched, but it’s far from completed—or sufficient. Between
now and 2016, we must continue to advocate for increased funding from Congress to further reduce the $800 million annual funding shortfall while also expanding the scope
of this centennial initiative beyond financial matters. We must use the momentum we have generated to examine the role that national parks should play in American society
during the next hundred years. As our nation anticipates demographic shifts, the growing impacts of climate change, increasing development, and technology’s evolving role in
our lives, we have a chance to design and implement an even more central role for our beloved national parks in the daily lives of all Americans. If ever there were a time for our
country to take broad, far-reaching action to protect our national parks, this is it.
Moving from the bigger picture to the individual parks, a quick survey of some of our other prominent achievements reveals the breadth of NPCA’s advocacy. When rainstorms
and flooding ravaged Mt. Rainier and Olympic National Parks in the Northwest, NPCA led an effort to organize recovery and restoration of the parks. In North Carolina, we
helped secure a financial settlement that will likely end a 60-year dispute, satisfy the local community, and keep a road out of the most remote parts of the Great Smoky Moun-
tains National Park. We won lawsuits to retain the water rights in Colorado’s Black Canyon of the Gunnison and to limit use of off-road vehicles in Alaska’s Wrangell-St. Elias
National Park and Preserve. We produced scientific reports that illustrated air pollution’s impact on the national parks and offered ten clear ways to do something about it. And
we showed Congress and the media how national parks generate economic benefits that exceed the federal government’s investment in them by a factor of at least four.
This year, we also opened a new Midwest Regional office in Chicago to bolster our efforts to protect parks along the shores of the Great Lakes and beyond. And several experi-
enced members of our staff established field offices in North Carolina, Texas, and West Virginia to extend our reach in these important states.
Of course, these highlights and the stories in this report represent only a sample of the work NPCA does around the country to take care of our parks. Whether or not one of
our projects is heralded here or elsewhere, one thing is undoubtedly true: We couldn’t have achieved any of these victories without all of the help, guidance, and support we
receive from you.
Sincerely,

outside interests that could jeopardize what makes
our national parks so special.
The End of the Road
A 60-year-old plan to build a road through the wildest part of the Great Smokies
took a giant step toward closure with the release of an environmental impact state-
ment last fall. The Department of Interior supports a financial settlement for Swain
County, North Carolina, rather than construction of the long-debated road, a deci-
sion that NPCA had been pursuing for years.
In 1943, people living near the Great Smokies were promised a road to replace
the one that was flooded when the Tennessee Valley Authority built a dam to meet
the country’s wartime energy needs. Despite some valiant efforts, the North Shore
Road, a.k.a. “The Road to Nowhere,” was never completed because the Park Service
determined that the cost of construction and the cost to the environment couldn’t
be justified. With leadership from NPCA and our coalition, this decades-long debate
has finally concluded in favor of the park’s health.
The North Shore Road was slated for construction in the park’s dense Appalachian

BY THE NUMBERS
NPCA assesses the health of our national parks and

park management, then educates decisionmakers and
the public about the importance of preserving our
collective natural and cultural heritage.
An Economic Engine
In November 2006, NPCA commissioned a report that aimed to quantify the

economic importance of each and every national park, to encourage the federal
government to see the wisdom of increased funding for the parks. The U.S. National
Park System: An Economic Asset at Risk used standard cost-benefit analysis to reveal
that the park system generates at least $4 in value to the public for every tax dollar
invested in its annual budget. Park units like Acadia National Park and Point Reyes
National Seashore actually generate more than 14 times the economic value invested
in their budget each year.
By looking at hard economic evidence, economists determined that parks sup-
port $13.3 billion of local private-sector economic activity in addition to 267,000
private-sector jobs. The report concludes that cutting park funding “undermines a
public economic asset that will result in negative economic repercussions for U.S.
citizens.”
Of course, national parks provide myriad benefits to our nation, many of which
defy easy quantification. Caring for these places is a duty, not simply an investment.
But even the most fiscally conservative members of Congress should recognize that
an annual $800-million operating shortfall puts these economic engines at risk,
while jeopardizing treasures whose true value can never be measured.

Something in the Air
Air pollution is a serious threat that jeopardizes nearly everything important about
our national parks. Habitats for plants and wildlife, chances for healthy outdoor
recreation, and inspiring vistas and horizons all stand to be diminished further by
the degradation of the air quality in and around the national parks. Turning Point,

National Park Friends Alliance
Colorado’s Federal District Court recently sided with NPCA and others to stop
a plan that would have diverted water from the Black Canyon of the Gunnison
to feed urban sprawl hundreds of miles away. According to a 2003 agreement
reached between the Department of Interior and the state of Colorado, the river’s
peak flows in the spring would have been sacrificed for other purposes, putting
the park’s plant life and other natural resources in jeopardy.
NPCA and others recognized that the move would not leave enough water to
protect the health of the park’s natural systems and its fish and wildlife. So in
2004, NPCA joined with Environmental Defense, Trout Unlimited, and other
conservation organizations to insist that the park has a legal right to that water.
In September 2006, the Federal District Court in Colorado delivered a major
victory to NPCA and its allies, upholding the claim that the Park Service and
Department of Interior failed in their responsibility to protect the resources of the
Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, and that the agreement must be
renegotiated. NPCA is actively involved in discussions to ensure that the park’s
water will continue to nourish the area’s plants and animals and provide recreation

wilderness experience, and NPCA’s legal team has helped ensure that it will stay
that way by limiting the use of off-road vehicles.
Because access to the forbidding Alaska landscape can pose challenges to visi-
tors, the Park Service had allowed recreational all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) to pass
through northern parts of Wrangell. When the weather turns cold and the ice
grows thick, that’s rarely a problem, but when the temperature rises and the ice
melts, ATVs scar the landscape and plant life by creating deep, muddy furrows in
the soil.
In response, NPCA and our conservation allies brought a suit against the Park
Service to stop the destructive use of ATVs in the park. In May 2007, the Park

Park Service is now conducting research to determine if ATVs can safely be used
in several other areas without violating the original intent of the park.
