From Times Wire Services
Seven logging protesters will face trial in Humboldt County on trespassing charges after some of them last week locked themselves to a 55-gallon drum full of concrete, blocking a road in Carlotta and holding up logging trucks.
The trials are set for Dec. 6. On that day, the Environmental Protection Information Center will ask the court for a preliminary injunction against six logging plans in the Van Duzen and Bear Creek watersheds that seek to cut young trees and some areas of old-growth forests.
