Re: dose limits for members of the public (use of savings)

This raises an interesting option for many of us.  while we probably cannot influence where Federal agency money goes, or is diverted to or from, we can influence at a state and local level.  For example, the State of New Mexico funds (from the general revenue) a "DOE Oversight Group" in the Environment Department.   Is such oversight necessary?  (By the way, the group is not concerned with things like personnel actions or even occupational safety).  That is state money, and could better be spent on overseeing the cleanup of industrial superfund and similar sites, and that's how it would be spent if it were diverted.
