Ohio residents seek $3.3 million over 250 trees cut from protected forest

The federal trial, which began on November 9, centres on a 1986 agreement to keep the forest substantially undisturbed. Residents say the greenbelt also helps shield their community from buried toxic coal ash near drinking-water sources.
