Inside Tucson Business - Recently, environmental writer Ted Williams had a commentary in the Tucson Weekly about how the Center for Biological Diversity generates lots of legal fees from suing the federal government. Williams' take: By harassing the feds to make a profit, the Center for Biological Diversity makes environmentalists look bad. He wrote that in 2009, the Center for Biological Diversity reported income of $1,173,517 in "legal settlement." Further, "The center also shakes down taxpayers directly from Interior Department funds under the Equal Access to Justice Act, and for missed deadlines when the agency can't keep up with the broadside of Freedom of Information Act requests."
