MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 2001 The Bush administration is defending US Fish and Wildlife nominee Steven Williams, who was fired from his job at the Pennsylvania Game Commission after being connected to a payroll scandal. As second in command at the commission, Williams allegedly had a subordinate alter payroll records to boost his salary. After an investigation, he and the subordinate were fired more than six years ago. Williams, however, was never charged. The Interior Department has a letter which officials say exonerates him.
