Oregon sues Coast Guard over sudden helicopter move, citing safety risks and procedural violations.
A federal lawsuit has been filed by Newport Fishermen’s Wives, Lincoln County, and the state of Oregon challenging the U.S. Coast Guard’s relocation of a search-and-rescue helicopter from Newport to North Bend, Oregon, in November 2025.
The move, made without public notice or required risk analysis, is accused of violating federal law requiring 18 months’ notice and public input before reducing air operations.
Critics say the shift endangers lives, particularly during the upcoming Dungeness crab season, by increasing emergency response times in cold Pacific waters.
The state plans to file a separate lawsuit, and Senator Dick Anderson has urged the temporary return of the MH-65 Dolphin helicopter by December 1, 2025, citing life-threatening risks for fishermen.
The outcome hinges on whether proper procedures were followed.
