"Bernhardt, David" <^^^^M(mios.doi.gov> Gareth, David's recusals do not prohibit him from meeting with Mr. Kightlinger. However, even though neither the CVP, nor the CWF, is a party matter, there are countless party matters associated with them. David must be careful not to discuss any party matters in which BHFS or any of his former clients is or represents a party. Thanks, Ed - Stewardship for America with Integrity and Excellence - -- Please note that a current or former employee who discloses information to an agency ethics official or a Government attorney does not personally enjoy an attorney-client privilege with respect to such communications. Additionally, reliance on the oral or written advice of an agency ethics official cannot ensure that an employee will not be prosecuted for a violation of Title 18 of the United States Code. However, good faith reliance on such advice is a factor that may be taken into account by the Department of Justice in the selection of cases for prosecution. -- Ed McDonnell Alternate Designated Agency Ethics Official/Deputy Designated Agency Ethics Official U.S. Department of the Interior D0l_00011511_00010099 Departmental Ethics Office Office of the Solicitor E-mail: edward.mcdonnell@soLdoi.gov Fax: (202) 208-5515 (Please call or e-mail me to let me know you've sent me a fax as the fax machine is in a separate room.)
