Remarkably researched; my compliments!

I've not anything to add except for a quick footnote. Ann Gorsuch was apparently quickly replaced by Bill Ruckelshaus, who had been Nixon's first EP administrator. From the dawn of EPA to the 1990s, according to a recent On The Media episode, the environment was more of a people vs. big business issue, and not a Democrat vs. Republican issue. Gorsuch's son now sits awaiting a confirmation to the Supreme Court. It is difficult to imagine him being a staunch defender of the environment, although none of us shares our parents' views entirely.
