A federal judge extends temporary order keeping a Coast Guard helicopter in Newport, Oregon, for two more weeks amid safety concerns.
A federal judge has extended a temporary restraining order, keeping a U.S. Coast Guard search and rescue helicopter in Newport, Oregon, for at least two more weeks.
The decision maintains the aircraft’s presence during the critical Dungeness crabbing season, following a lawsuit by local officials and community groups who argue its removal would jeopardize emergency response and coastal safety.
The Coast Guard had relocated the helicopter to North Bend due to staffing and equipment issues, but returned it after court intervention.
Federal attorneys say the helicopter may be reassessed for relocation in spring, though it will remain in Newport through at least spring.
The case centers on concerns over compliance with congressional notice requirements and the impact of federal operational changes on rural communities.
