Forest ban on wilderness land pushed by appeals court
The U S Court of Appeals kept in force a 40 million acre wilderness development ban in national forests. The Sierra Club and three groups secured a temporary restraining order blocking road building and logging until environmental impact statements, studies, and public hearings are completed. Most land lies in the Far West and the ruling awaits circuit resolution or district court transfer.
