Subject: [NYHIST-L] Adirondack Lands
Colleagues,
Has anyone seen a printed notice in the last few days concerning the
consummation of a complicated land deal involving about 260,000 acres
of International Paper Co. Lands in the Adirondacks? The state and
IP reached an agreement about purchase of fee title and/or easements
a couple of years ago, but it was held up when some of the towns
exercised their veto rights as provided for in the law creating the
Environmental Protection Fund in 1993. In the meantime, IP sold the
land (encumbered with the easements) to Lyme Timber Co. of Hanover,
New Hampshire. I have been told orally that the deal was to be
finally completed last Wednesday, but I can't find any published
reports. If you have seen anything, would you please supply name and
date of paper?
thanks,
phil
