Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on a lawsuit filed in Superior Court on Nov. 30 to block a boat launch site that the Bureau of Parks and Lands plans to build on the Allagash Wilderness Waterway at John's Bridge. The lawsuit was filed by a coalition of seven conservation groups and individuals after the Land Use Regulation Commission (LURC) approved the new access site on Nov. 1. The suit alleges that LURC failed to follow its own rules for protecting remote areas, as well as the 1966 Maine law creating the waterway and the 1968 Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.
