The Inspector General’s findings led the Fish and Wildlife Service to reopen endangered species decisions made under MacDonald’s supervision. The agency’s director H. Dale Hall, called MacDonald’s conduct “a blemish on the scientific integrity of the Fish and Wildlife Service and the Department of the Interior.” Hall reopened the agency’s assessment of the southwest willow flycatcher after alleging that MacDonald had told field personnel to reduce the bird’s natural nesting range from 2.1 miles to 1.8 miles. Hall also told the inspector general that MacDonald had altered range estimates for the willow flycatcher because a critical habitat designation might impact family property in California. However, MacDonald maintained that the property is nearly 300 miles from flycatcher habitat, and that her alteration of the bird’s range was approved by agency experts, including Hall, a former wildlife biologist.
