      WASHINGTON, DC--Vowing to "restore the pristine splendor of America's 
natural treasures," President Bush Monday unveiled "Project: National Parks 
Clean-Up," an ambitious program to remove all toxic petrochemical deposits 
from national parks by 2004.

      "Places like Yellowstone and Yosemite were once pure, unspoiled 
wilderness," Bush said at a White House press conference. "But over the 
course of the past 10 million years, we have allowed them to become polluted 
with toxic fossil-fuel deposits, turning a blind eye to the steady build-up 
of vast quantities of dangerous pollutants. It's time to end this terrible 
neglect."
