Seems they've actually put the fox (head of agencies) to guard the henhouse.
The head of agencies and secretaries appointed were the ones who used to work for the companies they are supposed to regulate. How many secretaries have resigned for embarrassing scandals and corruptions.
Better to have a supposed Green expert who has never actually lived off a patch of blacktop run them?
Agency heads, who are known to actually be running the agencies and funding, who are screened by the Congress is about the best you can hope for, otherwise you get a greenpeace activist with money and power attempting to feed tourist to the bears in Katmai National Park. Or a mining engineer that wants to look for the next Kimberly Pipe under Yellowstone.
If the Department heads are selected with the idea being preservation of the Parks, and they are directly accountable for explaining their actions most problems will work out.
