Boyden Gray, who served in both Bush administrations and helped author the 1990 Clean Air Act amendments. "On the surface it's an odd pairing, but Boyden is an enthusiastic advocate and always has been and has a tremendous grasp of the Clean Air Act and of Washington regulatory politics," Bookbinder said.
