Bush appoints Governor Leavitt of Utah to head EPA

<snip>
President Bush has picked Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt, an advocate of shifting environmental regulation to the states, to become head of the Environmental Protection Agency, a senior administration official said Monday.
Leavitt, a three-term Republican governor, would succeed Christie Whitman, a former New Jersey governor who held the post of EPA administrator for the first 2½ years of the administration before resigning in May.

Mike Leavitt is NOT a friend of the environment. Sad day although I have to admit we are DELIGHTED to be rid of him here in Utah.
