Abstract
- The article discusses a revised development project planned by the Plum Creek Timber Co. for several areas in Maine. The project was announced during a press conference in April 2006. In revising its original plan, the real estate investment trust allegedly ignored the public's plea that the development be centered in and around the existing lakeside communities of Greenville and Rockwood and not include the wildest sections of the watershed. The project received criticisms from many conservationists. Publisher Jon Lund claims that the project signifies the lack of control over the economic value of hunting, fishing and tourist activities in the north woods.
