Plan to manage Sumter National Forest sparks clash
Conservation groups and U S Forest Service officials disagree on a new 10 to 15 year plan for Sumter National Forest. The plan increases protected acreage but raises timber cutting in other areas, drawing criticism from observers like Butch Clay of South Carolina Forest Watch who say it harms irreplaceable treasures. Conservation groups say the plan prioritizes logging and commercial development over protection and notes years of development prior to release.
