Watt confirmation faces Senate despite protests
Washington AP report notes Watt draws warm reception from the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee amid strong environmental objections from Audubon Sierra Club and Friends of the Earth. Senators predict confirmation, citing Watt’s Western environmental concerns, while critics warn of conflicts of interest with Mountain States Legal Foundation and federal land access cases. Separately, 120 SAT booklets stolen from a test supervisor in Los Angeles trigger a nationwide recall ordered by ETS.
