Environmentalists push to spare Congaree Swamp trees
In Columbia South Carolina environmentalists urge a moratorium on logging to preserve the Congaree Swamp, arguing the 70 000 acre forest is a near pristine resource and essential to regional life support systems while opponents warn of job losses and tax impacts from a national park preserve. The Beidler tract and a 14 000 acre core area draw focus as debates over conservation versus private timber interests intensify among state officials, business leaders, and the forestry association.
