Plum Creek Maine Timberlands, LLC v. Vermont Dep’t of Forests,
About This Legal Opinion
A key issue was whether the residual basal area should be measured with respect to an entire stand, as Plum Creek contended, or only the harvested area, as gov’t contended. The trial court held for Plum Creek. VT Supreme Court reversed and remanded, finding substantial deference to gov’t.
