REDSKIN OWNER TREE-CUTTING WHISTLEBLOWER CASE RESOLVED

Special Counsel Mediation Brings Happy Ending for Park Service Ranger Danno


Washington, DC — The long ordeal of Chief Ranger Robert Danno, who blew the whistle on illegal tree cutting by Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder, is over, as indicated in the following joint statement:

“Ranger Danno and the National Park Service resolved his complaint filed under the Whistleblower Protection Act through the Office of Special Counsel’s Alternative Dispute Resolution Program to the mutual satisfaction and the best interest of both parties. While the terms of the settlement are confidential, Ranger Danno has begun a new assignment at the Arthur Carhart National Wilderness Training Center in Missoula, Montana.”

Although we may not say more, Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) could not be more pleased at the outcome and are proud to have been of assistance.
