Judge: Clinton Green Regs Violated Law

April 6, 2001 - BOISE - A federal judge says the Forest Service violated federal law, before approving a plan to put millions of acres of forestland nationwide off-limits to logging.

Ordered in the closing months of the administration, it bans roads on 58 million acres across the nation. Six million acres of Montana forest would be affected.

The judge in Idaho says there is strong evidence the process was hurried, and the Forest Service was not prepared to produce a coherent proposal or meaningful dialogue.

U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge says it looks like the end result was predetermined. He says the Forest Service violated the National Environmental Policy Act.

The judge says he'll decide whether to block the plan, after reviewing a report next month from the Bush administration.
