nouvelles du front : Salazar indique qu’il a perdu confiance dans la nouvelle dirlo du MMS... il serait temps de s’en apercevoir... elle vient de démissionner !


http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/05/28/AR2010052804855_2.html?hpid=topnews&sid=ST2010052805077

extraits :

Salazar, a politically savvy former senator from Colorado, responded that he had lost confidence in Elizabeth Birnbaum, the director of the Minerals Management Service, adding that he would soon be making changes. The next morning, Salazar and hisdeputy secretary David Hayes knocked on Birnbaum’s office door and told her they planned to move her to another job ; she resigned instead.

tout le service est POURRI :
« It’s like focusing on low-hanging fruit while ignoring orchard blight, » said Jeff Ruch, executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility.

But Birnbaum’s abrupt departure, coming just 10 months after she had taken the agency’s helm, says more about the Obama administration’s inability to improve MMS and the industry it regulates than Birnbaum herself. Facing a historically troubled agency, Salazar and his top deputies focused first on promoting easy-to-achieve changes and offshore wind development rather than conducting a broad agency overhaul.

on cherche une tête à claques semble-t-il :

« They needed someone to visibly take the fall, » said a former Interior official who worked with Birnbaum and did not want to comment publicly on a personnel matter. « She was the director, and that’s what happens when something goes wrong. »
