 Well, an environmental group has sued the U.S. Forest Service to block it from swapping land for the planned Polymet Copper Nickel Mine in Northeastern Minnesota. Polymet needs the land for its mine near Babet in Hoyt Lakes. The deal calls for trading 6,650 acres of federal land for a similar amount of private land. But Paula McCabe, an attorney for Water Legacy, says the Forest Service seriously undervalued the land when it agreed to the exchange because it ignored what the land would be worth as a mine. The complaint filed in federal court today says the government valued it at $550 per acre, as if it were timberland instead of mining land worth much more. Polymet says it's confident in the accuracy of how the Forest Service appraised the land.
