"The Interior Department is resisting congressional oversight by failing to comply with House Natural Resources Committee requests for documents, according to Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.).
Of 24 formal requests for documents, the committee has received three complete, or nearly complete, responses, Grijalva said during a committee oversight hearing Sept. 26.
Interior says it has produced thousands of pages of documents. But Grijalva accused the department of “padding” their numbers, submitting a printed 12,000-page spreadsheet that was already available online, and hundreds of pages full of “unintelligible symbols.”
Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.) also called it “offensive” that Interior would send 12,000 “wasted” pages of blank documents."
