In today's decision on Sturgeon v. Frost, the Supreme Court has held in favor of an Alaskan moose hunter’s right to traverse a river by hovercraft as it passes through a National Park unit, in a remote and largely roadless area of the state. The National Park Service regulations forbid the use of hovercraft within park units, but Mr. Sturgeon successfully argued that the surface of the river is not subject to Park Service regulation under the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. Tony Francois, Senior Attorney with the Pacific Legal Foundation, will join us to discuss this decision.
