U.S. Park Service

In another example, the State of Maryland has a public park that was formerly a Civil War fort. At a meeting with the U.S. Park Service, which owns the site, the Corps of Engineers representative stated that the military found a map (sketch) showing munitions burial pits in a line. A geophysical survey confirmed the presence of ferrous metal anomalies compatible with the map. The State of Maryland has been trying to get a copy of that map for over a year at last report. Apparently, the sketch has been so closely held by Huntsville that it was never made part of the FUDS file at the Corps of Engineers. Moreover, the existence of some information regarding munitions burials must exist or Huntsville would not have flown a UXO technician with a metal detector to the site in the first place.

Full-time firefighters are also hired by federal and state government agencies to protect government-owned property and special facilities. For example, the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Park Service offer both year-round and seasonal fire service jobs to protect the country s national parks, forests, and other lands.

Additionally, these diversifications may represent sources of distraction for senior management, which can be exacerbated if the companies are publicly traded. A recent example is the diversification of the contract service organization aaiPharma (Wilmington, NC, U.S.A.) into a specialty pharmaceutical manufacturer. Quintiles (Research Triangle Park, NC, U.S.A.) also diversified aggressively in the 1990s and the acquisition of a patient billing company was problematic.
