U.S. Government Web Sites--Department of the Interior

Entire Department of Interior Site Taken Offline
Interior Dept. Still Down (Wired News)
From the article, "Responding to a court order, the Interior Department has cut itself off from the Internet, crippling the ability of Interior employees to communicate by e-mail and blocking access to information gathered by the department that is routinely used by other agencies and the public. The shutdown occurred Thursday afternoon on the order of U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth, who is presiding over a long-running lawsuit alleging decades of mismanagement by the federal government in the handling of trust funds for American Indians."
Update: As of 12/13 @ Midnight EST http://www.doi.gov and http://www.ngs.gov were not back online.
