Technology and Collaboration in Washington The New York Times calls Governor Leavitt a "get-along voice" for the EPA.  The editorial also calls the Governor a "formidable" negotiator.  That is true.  I think he will also find ways to enhance collaboration and communication through the use of technology.  Last year, I sat in a videoconferencing session between the Governor and the US Department of Energy where he gave a very effective power point presentation on why Energy should deny moving forward on the Skull Valley nuclear waste proposal.  It saved a lot of time and money.  I expect Governor Leavitt will find many ways to introduce efficiency while making the EPA even more effective in fulfilling its mission of protecting the environment. more press ACC welcomes confirmation of Gov.
