> From day one, the Bush Administration has set about the task of  
systematically and unilaterally dismantling over thirty years of  
environmental and natural resources law. It started with the "Card  
Memo"  and the Anything But Clinton ("ABC") rule, which first  
quarantined and then quietly put to sleep, scores of regulations  
issued by the previous administration‹everything from arsenic in  
drinking water, to fuel efficiency standards, to snowmobiles in  
Yellowstone National Park. Since then, the anti-Clinton reaction has  
grown into a full-fledged ideological crusade to deregulate polluters,  
privatize public resources, limit public participation, manipulate  
science, and abdicate federal responsibility for tackling national and  
global environmental problems. While the American public has been  
preoccupied with the issues of jobs, health care, and the "War on  
Terrorism," the Bush Administration has enjoyed a rare window of  
opportunity to roll back environmental policies and regulations.
