FEBRUARY 28, 2001 A number of environmental groups are seeking to intervene in a lawsuit filed by Alaska Governor Tony Knowles over the US Forest Service's controversial roadless forest initiative. The plan was finalized by President Clinton last month, setting off a wave of criticism and lawsuits mostly by Republican lawmakers and Western Governors. Tribes have voiced opposition as well and the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho has joined a lawsuit in the state. Conservation groups have also sought intervenor status in Idaho. Get the Story:
