Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on the termination of Tim Caverly as supervisor for the Bureau of Parks and Lands' (BPL) Allagash Wilderness Waterway. According to his notice of dismissal, Caverly was fired because of investigations into the spending of money for the historic Tramway railroad project and allegations of continued harassment and retaliation against ranger Kim Allen, which indicate a pattern of continued insubordination and intentional failure on Caverly's part to comply with directives, offenses for which Caverly had been disciplined progressively in the past. Caverly has filed a grievance against the department, and the Washington group, Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, is looking into the possibility of litigation on his behalf. BPL director Tom Morrison said Mike Leighton, the assistant regional manager for the northern region, will be in charge of the waterway pending the appointment of Caverly's replacement.
