An Alaska Native corporation temporarily halted plans to clear timber from land it owns in Homer after protests from local residents.

Cook Inlet Region Inc. admitted it was clearing the land in order to avoid future land-use regulations that could limit its activities. A reported 50 protesters had to be separated from loggers working for CIRI.
