OFF PAGE ONE East Oregonian Page 6A Thursday, June 28, 2018 Justice Kennedy retiring, giving Trump major high court pick Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Justice Anthony Kennedy, the Supreme Court’s decisive man in the middle on abor- tion, gay rights and other con- tentious issues, announced his retirement Wednesday, giv- ing President Donald Trump a golden chance to cement conservative control of the nation’s highest court. The 81-year-old Kennedy, often a voice of moderation over three decades on the court, provided the key vote on such closely divided issues as affirmative action, guns, campaign finance and vot- ing rights in addition to same- sex marriage and the right to abortion. Kennedy informed his colleagues of his plans, then went to the White House to meet with Trump, where the president said they talked for half an hour about a poten- tial successor and other top- ics. The retirement will take effect at the end of July. Trump praised Kennedy as a man of “tremendous vision” and said his search for a new justice would begin “immediately.” Without Kennedy, the court will be split between four liberal justices who were appointed by Democratic presidents and four conser- vatives who were nominee, Neil named by Republi- Gorsuch, was cans.

Abortion is likely to be Trump’s first high court one of the flash points in the TRAIN: Using existing rail reduces cost Continued from 1A the I-5 corridor, Nuxoll said additional rail options are a much more effective way of relieving traffic than adding lanes to a highway. Eastern Oregon might be a world away from the Wil- lamette Valley, but Nux- oll said he often travels to Boise to visit family. If he had the option, he’d prefer a train to the eight-hour drive. As a La Grande resident, association Vice President David Arnold is familiar with transportation chal- lenges of the east side of the state. Tucked between Ladd Canyon and Cabbage Hill, Arnold said La Grande res- idents often find themselves trapped in town during the winter, when the Oregon Department of Transporta- tion closes down Interstate 84. A train would help local residents bypass the roads on a preferred alternative mode of transportation. Perhaps the biggest hur- dle to overcome for the association is finding a way to fund the new train route. When federal fund- ing dried up for the Pio- neer line in 1997, Amtrak tried to appeal to the Ore- gon Legislature to keep it running, but lawmakers passed on Amtrak’s funding proposals. In 2009, Amtrak put out a report that looked at reviving the Pioneer line and some possible routes it could take. Although each route was more expansive than the association’s proposal, Amtrak found it would take between $379 million and $493 million in implemen- tation and capital costs. Arnold said the associa- tion has not yet done a cost study for its proposal, but admitted it would take “mil- lions of dollars” to get done. While a new rail line would have a significant price tag, Nuxoll said all transportation is publicly subsidized. Whether it’s a gas tax for road repairs for vehicular travel or the fed- eral Essential Air Service subsidy for Pendleton pas- senger flight, taxpayers bear part of the cost. The association is trying to keep the project feasible by using existing rail used by Union Pacific Railroad, although there will probably be a need for additional rail capacity and signage. Under the knowledge that the group will even- tually approach the Legis- lature for funding, the rail passenger summit at EOU is meant to galvanize public and political support for the association’s plans. Arnold said the association is look- ing to attract politicians who have previously supported passenger rail like Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Sen. Mike Crapo of Idaho, as well as state legislators and local politicians from both sides of the border. While rail service for Eastern Oregon hasn’t been a priority in Salem, it has been on their radar. Published in 2014, the Oregon State Rail Plan states that due to strong growth projections for Umatilla and Morrow counties, restoring the Pioneer line “would pro- vide direct access to eastern Oregon and reconnect Port- land with the major cities of the mountain west.” Arnold added that between bus services from Kayak Public Transit and Northeast Oregon Pub- lic Transit, there would be additional connectivity between buses and trains. nomination fight. Kennedy has mainly supported abor- tion rights in his time on the court, and Trump has made clear he would try to choose justices who want to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. Such a dramatic ruling may not be immedi- ately likely, but a more con- servative court might be more willing to sustain abortion restrictions. “If Donald Trump, who has promised to overturn Roe v. Wade, picks someone who is anti-choice, the future of Roe v. Wade is very much in question,” said David Cole, national legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union. Interest groups across the political spectrum are expected to mobilize to sup- port and fight the nomination because it is so likely to push the court to the right. Republicans currently hold a bare 51-49 majority in the Senate, although that includes the ailing Sen. John McCain of Arizona. If Dem- ocrats stand united in opposi- tion to Trump’s choice, Sen- ate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky can lose no more than one vote. If the Senate divides 50-50, Vice President Mike Pence could break a tie to confirm the nominee. DAIRY: Poised to become 2nd largest Continued from 1A able including civil penal- ties to gain compliance,” said ODA Director Alexis Taylor in a statement. “We believe the owner is not willing or unable to meet the conditions of his permit that helps protect human health and the environment.” Te Velde did not imme- diately return calls for com- ment. He may appeal the revocation within 60 days and request a contested case hearing before an adminis- trative judge. Lost Valley was poised to become the second-larg- est dairy in Oregon, behind neighboring Threemile Canyon Farms. In 2002, te Velde established Willow Creek Dairy on land leased from Threemile Canyon, selling milk to Columbia River Processing, a subsid- iary of Tillamook County Creamery Association at the Port of Morrow. By 2015, te Velde was ready to strike out on his own, purchasing 7,288 acres of the former Board- man Tree Farm to start his new business. After a lengthy and contentious hearing process that gar- nered more than 4,200 pub- lic comments, ODA and DEQ granted Lost Valley a permit to handle roughly 187 million gallons of liq- uid manure each year. Almost immediately, the dairy began racking up per- mit violations related to dis- charging liquid and solid waste. Lost Valley is within the Lower Umatilla Basin Groundwater Management Area, established in 1990 by DEQ due to elevated groundwater nitrates. ODA sued to shut down Lost Valley in March, and while that case was ulti- mately settled, the state claims the dairy contin- ued to defy its permit. The notice of revocation notes that the facility violated specific conditions related to waste storage at least 32 times from June 28, 2017, to May 9, 2018, along with a laundry list of other infrac- tions related to maintenance and record-keeping. “(Lost Valley’s) numer- ous, repeated and seri- ous permit violations have allowed wastewater and manure to be placed directly on the soil and land surfaces where they are likely to leach into groundwater,” the document states. “The ODA has information that leads it to conclude that violation of the permit’s terms, even absent an indication that nitrate levels in the ground- water have increased, pose a threat to human health or welfare.” Wym Matthews, who manages the Oregon CAFO program, said revocation is an extremely rare step for the agency to take. Of 509 facilities and 880 inspec- tions in 2017, less than 1 percent resulted in viola- tions that led to civil penal- ties or injunctive relief. “It’s an extremely low percentage of activities for us to get to this point,” Mat- thews said. Lauren Goldberg, staff attorney with the environ- mental group Columbia Riverkeeper, said the deci- sion was a common-sense move to protect Orego- nians’ right to clean water. “This facility never should have had the green light to operate in Oregon,” Goldberg said. “Now is the time to step back and learn lessons to make sure this public health and environ- mental disaster never hap- pens again.” T HURSDAY A FTERNOON & E VENING ABC NBC CBS FOX 12 PM 12:30 1 PM (11) KFFX KPTV (19) KEPR KOIN (25) KNDU KGW (42) KVEW KATU 2 19 6 8 4 C PBS KTNW OPB FIFA Soccer World Divorce Paid Court Program Wendy Williams Funn- Bold & The Talk (N) yAsk B.
