The FBI and Building Industry Association of Washington are offering $100,000 for the conviction individuals responsible for criminal acts claimed by the Earth Liberation Front (ELF).
"While ELF has targeted cities around the country, the West Coast has been particularly hard hit.
In Washington alone, ELF terrorists have embarked upon an arson spree that has caused nearly $8 million in property damage since 1996. Much of the damage has occurred in residential developments.
California has sustained more than $53 million in damage, and Oregon has been hit with more than $3 million in losses. Nationally, ELF has claimed responsibility for acts of sabotage in 14 states that have destroyed nearly $100 million in property."
