SCOTUS declines to rule on Roadless Area Conservation Rule

The United States Supreme Court decided to let stand a 10th Circuit decision that upheld the viability of the roadless rule.  The state of Wyoming and the mining industry urged the Court to hear the case, along with eight other states.  The decision not to hear the case lets the Clinton-era rule stand for now, as well as the millions acres of forest the rule aims to protect.
