A court ruling that opens the door for energy development on a roadless area of the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest located adjacent to Glacier National Park, the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex, and the Blackfeet Indian Reservation has drawn criticism from tribes and conservation groups who have appealed the decision.
At issue is an energy lease that had been canceled in the Badger-Two Medicine area of the national forest. The judge in early September reinstated the Solenex, LLC lease, ruling that it had been properly issued and so not subject to cancellation.
