More than 50 conservation and community organizations have signed a letter urging the Oregon Legislature to reject House Bill 3382 which would eliminate land use review of dredging and development proposals in the state’s five deepwater ports: Coos Bay, Newport, Astoria, St. Helens, and Portland. It would eviscerate land use protections for key estuaries, among the coast’s most critical and productive habitat areas.
