Multi-Use advocates join Forest Service lawsuit
In a classic David versus Goliath tale, two grassroots organizations have joined forces to battle powerful environmental groups that hope to use the courts to expand the boundaries of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) beyond the lines designated by the 1978 BWCAW Act. The Arrowhead Coalition for Multiple Use (ACMU) of Cook County and the Conservationists with Common Sense (CWCS) of Ely have hired Attorney David Oberstar of the law firm Fryberger, Buchanan, Smith, & Frederick, PA. to help the groups intervene with the US Forest Service on a lawsuit it is involved in, initiated by the Izaak Walton League, the Sierra Club North Star Chapter, Wilderness Watch, and the Northeastern Minnesotans for Wilderness.
