West Virginia Criticizes Lawmakers Black Forest Trip
Ted Fearnow of Berkeley Springs, head of national affairs for the West Virginia Wildlife Federation, calls a planned $5,000 trip by three lawmakers to Germany's Black Forest to study clear cutting a waste of public funds. He says a Tucker County experimental forest would better inform Appalachian hardwood management. Del Charles Lohr, a trip advocate, seeks data to resist U S Forest Service clear cutting. Fearnow notes Lohr's opposition to clear cutting in the Monongahela National Forest and questions the trip's value. Farnow, a former biologist and forester, leads regional environmental work among four states.

Gov Moore wants broad scope including ancillary matters and consumer credit, while leaders fear a vague bill may be challenged or watered down. Committees aim to resolve wording to avoid court challenge and preserve the bill from defeat.
