Bush proposes 1.96 million acres of Utah wilderness
President Bush asks Congress to designate nearly two million acres as wilderness in Utah while excluding about 1.3 million acres. The plan, based on a Bureau of Land Management study, prompts environmentalist criticism for being insufficient and rushing a full Utah review. Jane Leeson of the Wilderness Society dismisses the plan as a sham and says it liquidates wilderness resources.
