Counties sue over spotted owl listing in four-state coalition
A coalition of 14 counties from New Mexico and Arizona sue Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt and the U S Fish and Wildlife Service in U S District Court arguing there is no scientific basis for listing the Mexican spotted owl as threatened and that protections have harmed local economies. The suit contends the listing violated the Endangered Species Act NEPA and the Administrative Procedures Act and seeks a ruling to overturn or modify the protections. Judge Martha Vazquez is assigned to the case in Santa Fe.

Geologists Date Aramis Hominid Fossils at 4.4 Million Years
Los Alamos scientists Giday Wolde Gabrel and Grant Heiken dated the Australopithecus ramidus fossils from Aramis Ethiopia using volcanic ash layers and glass analysis to establish a 4.4 million year age. The find, linked to UC Berkeley researchers, places the species about 800,000 years older than Lucy and describes a forested, dunged habitat with monkeys and antelope.

Boy Scouts lose United Way funds over discrimination policy
In Santa Fe the Great Southwest Council faces loss of United Way funding after the local chapter adopted an anti discrimination policy. Executive director Phil Bevins says the national ban on homosexuals will prevent funding while United Way officials stress adherence to the local policy and non discrimination standards. About 600 to 800 local scouts are served across New Mexico and nearby states. this year's United Way support amounts to roughly $12,000. Donors may designate allocations and four to five other United Way groups have acted similarly.
