NOAA has eye on Newport, Astoria - OregonLive.com

NOAA has eye on Newport, Astoria - OregonLive.com: "NEWPORT -- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is looking for the next home port for its Pacific fleet, and at least two Oregon communities are in the running.

The ports of Astoria and Newport say they were asked in January by the federal agency to complete a questionnaire about their facilities as potential sites for the fleet. A short time after completing the questionnaire, NOAA called to say it would be visiting, said Ron Larsen, acting general manager of the Port of Astoria."
