Obama plans fewer cleanups

Bush completed more Superfund sites

WASHINGTON (AP) - For years, the Bush administration was criticized for not cleaning up enough of the nation's most contaminated waste sites. The Obama administration plans to do even less.

Environmental groups and some Democratic congressmen railed against President George W. Bush's cleanup record. But this time, they are shying away from speaking out against a popular president who is considered an ally in the fight to clean up the environment.
