NOAA's final answer for fleet is still Oregon

NOAA's final answer for fleet is still Oregon: "GRANTS PASS, Ore. -- The nation's ocean research agency has given its final answer on the new home base for its West Coast research fleet, and it is the same as the first answer: the port of Newport on the central Oregon Coast.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued its final determination Thursday in the long-running political battle over where the ships would be based after a 2006 dock fire ruled out keeping them in Seattle."
