D.C. 20549 DATE: July 15, 1981 edar River Watershed Area DIGEST: Although prior decision rendered at request of Forest Service holds that easement which grants to Government use of road system within watershed to transport timber from its lands within watershed or tributary thereto permits transport of Government timber from outside lands not in immediate proximity to watershed, new information indi- cates matter is much more complex than it first appeared. However, no clear showing has been made that prior decision was erroneous. Consequently GAO denies request to modify or overrule prior decision. Mountain Tree Farm and the City of Seattle request that our decision, Cedar River Watershed Area, B-189970, December 16, 1977, 77-2 CPD 473, be reversed or vacated on grounds it fails to consider relevant evidence, mis- takenly evaluates evidence which was considered and is contrary to law. Mountain Tree Farm is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Scott Paper Company and Weyerhaeuser Company which join in the request but, for convenience, the three companies will be referred to as Mountain Tree Farm. As pointed out in our initial decision, the Cedar River Watershed area is subject to the Cedar River Watershed Cooperative Agreement (Cooperative Agreement), dated May 28, 1962, entered into by the U.S. Forest Service, Department of Agriculture, the City of Seattle and Mountain Tree Farm for the * * * coordinated and orderly management of the participating forest properties A 1 e'-j ~.1 I Aj DECISION
