Dick Yarbrough: Lawyer knows her sea turtles, and other random thoughts
Placeholder Image
Lawyers, like kids, can say the darnedest things. One example came during a recent hearing in Atlanta regarding an appeal by environmental groups of a permit allowing the Sea Island Company to construct a 350-foot long rock barrier, known as a groin, that would jut out from the island’s shoreline. It would create a new beach at the posh resort, yet opponents said the project would be detrimental to the local wildlife — particularly endangered sea turtles.
