"Interior Increases Targets For Layoffs" [1]

"An internal document shows that the department has expanded the number of units where federal employees could face dismissals based on details like performance evaluations and tenure." 

"The Interior Department is expanding its targets for layoffs to include more than 1,400 “competitive areas” — an increase of hundreds of categories since its first notice this spring — including new units within the Bureau of Reclamation, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, and Office of the Secretary, according to an internal document.

The newly released list of offices or units that could face layoffs was obtained by the National Parks Conservation Association and shared with POLITICO’s E&E News.

The Interior Department declined to comment Friday afternoon."
