Another highly critical view of the Governor’s surprise firing of the head of the Puget Sound Partnership, and the installation of a new, more outspoken one. The takeaway here is that author Todd Meyers believes that we are in for more politics and less science. Not sure we are so skeptical. Many of the projects that the Partnership faces are ones involving engineering on a scale that the Corps is familiar with, such as the eventual replacement of old fashioned highway culverts that block returning salmon. We’re willing to withhold judgment on the Director while he finds his feet, and shows us what he made of.
