Cantwell, others ‘troubled’ by NOAA’s planned move to Oregon - Puget Sound Business Journal (Seattle):: "A letter sent to Gary Locke, Department of Commerce Secretary (and former governor of Washington), was signed by Cantwell and the state’s other Democratic senator, Patty Murray, as well as six of the state’s nine U.S. Representatives. The eight ask Locke why NOAA was allowed to select the Newport site, which is located in a floodplain development, without conducting environmental assessments of the site that they say are required."
