The pipeline is controversial, & over the past 6 yrs, various lower federal court decisions have interrupted & delayed its construction. In the current round of #litigation, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals issued an order that temporarily blocked completion of the #pipeline while the court reviewed #ForestService & #BureauOfLandManagement authorizations for the pipeline's completion.

Thank you for highlighting the #UpperCheatRiver project that is #clearcutting #OldGrowth #forest, just like other #ForestService projects in the East. e.g. the #TelephoneGap project. #WorthMoreStanding

(IMO this project will only provide access to public lands for the very wealthy and will have negative impacts on most human Montanans and on the integrity of Montana ecosystems and biodiversity.)

The new owner of a private parcel of adjacent to the forest has closed off a swath of #publiclands, infuriating local residents while local and federal officers say there may or may not be any recourse.

Wednesday's edition of the #DemingHeadlight is PACKED, and there's breaking news on DemingHeadlight.com, too. In this issue: A strange story from #ColumbusNM, #NewMexico Special Auditor orders exam of #DemingNM utilities, the #ForestService is sued to prevent aerial shooting of feral cattle in the #Gila wilderness, high school sports, and #NMleg updates from the state Legislature. I love this paper. #localnews #newspapers

“Studies elsewhere have suggested #cattle can be managed to minimize impacts on #riparian areas, but that requires keeping cows out of the streams in the spring and summer, extensive fencing, alternative water projects and other more intensive management approaches.
The Forest Service in a letter to The Western Watershed Project concluded, “the new EA must better define the proposed action and alternatives, clearly describe the existing conditions, clearly disclose the potential site-specific resource effects of the actions for each alternative and describe the actions that may be take under an adaptive management strategy as well as the resource conditions that trigger those actions.”
