Federal judge turns down Bush administration plans to increase logging in the Giant Sequoia National Monument which contains up to two-thirds of the world's giant seqoias.
"A federal judge rejected the Bush administration's plan Tuesday to allow increased logging in the Giant Sequoia National Monument, saying the government had 'trampled the applicable environmental laws.'
U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer of San Francisco ...said the administration's plan to increase the size and number of trees that could be cut, while claiming to adhere to the monument's preservationist standards, was incomprehensible.
Breyer ordered the U.S. Forest Service to develop a new management plan for the monument, which was established in 2000 by President Bill Clinton to protect groves that contain half to two-thirds of the world's giant sequoias, the largest trees on the planet."
