Governor signs BWCAW land swap bill over objections | Duluth News Tribune | Duluth, Minnesota
Legislation that would trade away state-owned land that’s now locked inside the federal Boundary Waters was signed into law Friday by Gov. Mark Dayton after clearing the House and Senate earlier this week.
The bill opens the door for the state to trade more than 86,000 acres of state school trust fund land in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness for an equal value of federal land outside the 1.1 million acre wilderness.
