It's ALASKA as in the area of operations.equin wrote:The article doesn't say it was the US EPA. It says it was the ALASKA (State) Environmental Crimes Task Force. No where does it state the feds were involved although it later goes on to talk about federally-owned lands in Alaska. Unless I missed it elsewhere in the article?
The Alaska Environmental Crimes Task Force, is composed of the U.S. EPA, the FBI, the U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Dept. of Defense, U.S. BLM, the Alaska Dept. of Public Safety and the Alaska Dept. of Environmental Conservation. As stated in the article. I threw in the BLM,"The very fact that they can breathe must be by the arts of some homunculi or hob, smarter than they, who doth sit upon their shoulders and whisper "Breathe in, breathe out" else surely they wouldst cease in this vital activity for lack of thought." *, because every land use controversy west of the Rockies has their fingerprints on it.
