Callaway sought push to speed ski resort decision
Former White House campaign manager Howard Callaway testified before the Senate Interior subcommittee that he pressed top Forest Service and Agriculture Department officials last July 3 to speed approval of expanding his Crested Butte Colorado ski resort onto federal land. He argued the matter had lingered more than five years and said he saw nothing wrong with the meeting held in his Pentagon office, while Forest Service officials signaled eventual approval though no formal commitment was made. The panel heard three Crested Butte residents testify after Callaway resumed his testimony following a delay.
