An Honest Police Chief

New U.S. Park Police Chief Named

 

March 28, 2005 – Just days before their response is due to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB), the Department of the Interior and National Park Service have named a new chief of the United States Park Police. In naming a person to fill this position, leadership at the Department of the Interior and the National Park Service have once again snubbed the MSPB, whose members are currently reviewing Chief Chambers’ case. This is the second time the Department of the Interior and the National Park Service have taken a significant personnel action without giving the MSPB an opportunity to act. In July of 2004, within four hours of Chief Chambers’ legal team filing a detailed Motion with the MSPB to “stay” the proposed discipline against her, the Department of the Interior notified Chief Chambers that her termination would be effective the next day. Now, with its response due to the MSPB on April 1, 2005, regarding Chief Chambers’ Petition for Review, the Department of the Interior has ignored the authority of the Board to remedy this matter and has, instead, filled the position once held by Chief Chambers.
