Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on the creation of Maine's first ecological reserves, which is being hailed as a significant first step toward protecting biological diversity. The 13 reserves, all on public reserved unit land, cover 68,974 acres. Critics say less than half the acreage recommended was set aside by the Bureau of Parks and Lands, and funding is short for a complete resource inventory of the initial group of reserves.
