Plum Creek negotiates new easements with state of Montana

As Plum Creek Timber http://www.plumcreek.com/ repositions itself as a real estate company, it is working with the state of Montana to expand its logging road easements, so it can bring improved access and underground utilities to land that it can later subdivide into rural communities.
The state negotiations may shed some light on private talks held between Plum Creek and the U.S. Forest Service.
DNRC director Mary Sexton says the state has upgraded Plum Creek’s traditional 40-foot right-of-way deeds across state lands to 60-foot right of ways. The state is adding additional “all-lawful-purposes” rights to easements originally granted for natural resource uses such as logging.
