Forest
Service Considers Outsourcing Two-Thirds of Workforce
WASHINGTON, DC, February 27, 2006 (ENS) - The U.S. Forest Service is
studying how to contract out more than two-thirds of its total workforce by
2009, according to agency planning documents released today by Public
Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), the national association of
workers in natural resources agencies.
In addition to Bush administration plans to sell off 300,000 acres of
Forest Service land included in the Fiscal Year 2007 budget proposal to
Congress, the agency is also seeking to privatize environmental, law
enforcement, firefighting, engineering, and research positions.
