FILE - This September, 2001 file photo shows a moose crossing a logging road near the West Branch of the Penobscot River in Maine's North Woods. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has proposed changing the rules on applying to stormwater running off logging roads, blunting a landmark court ruling that found the muddy water running into salmon streams and drinking water reservoirs should be regulated like industrial pollution.
