LOS ANGELES — Conservationists on Wednesday blasted President Bush's decision to exempt the Navy from an environmental law so it can continue using high-power sonar in its training off Southern California _ a practice they say harms whales and other marine mammals.

The president's action by itself won't allow the anti-submarine warfare training to go forward because an injunction is in place, but the Navy believes it will significantly strengthen its argument in court. A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco had been expected to make a determination on the future of the Navy exercises on Friday.

However, late Wednesday, the appeals court sent the issue back to the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles to consider first.

The White House announced Bush signed the exemption Tuesday while traveling in the Middle East. In his memorandum, Bush said the Navy training exercises "are in the paramount interest of the United States" and its national security.

Judge Issues Temporary, Partial Stay in Sonar Case
Original Injunction Remains Mostly Intact

LOS ANGELES (January 17, 2008) – A federal judge this afternoon temporarily stayed part of her own injunction requiring the Navy to protect whales from high-intensity sonar during upcoming training exercises in Southern California waters.

The two-page order by Judge Florence-Marie Cooper keeps most of her original injunction intact, including a 12-nautical-mile no-sonar buffer zone along the coast, a no-sonar zone between Catalina and San Clemente islands, additional monitoring for marine mammals during exercises and additional training for monitors.

The order temporarily lifts a requirement for the Navy to shut off sonar if marine mammals are detected within 2,000 meters of a sonar source, and the requirement to shut off sonar during surface ducting conditions, which allow sound to travel underwater a greater distance than it normally would.

“We’re optimistic that we will prevail when the issue of the presidential waivers is fully briefed next week,” said Joel Reynolds, a senior attorney and director of the Marine Mammal Protection Project at the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), which brought the lawsuit against the Navy.

The Bush administration on Tuesday issued two waivers purporting to exempt the Navy from the statutes on which Judge Cooper’s injunction was based -- the Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

The Natural Resources Defense Council is a national, nonprofit organization of scientists, lawyers and environmental specialists dedicated to protecting public health and the environment. Founded in 1970, NRDC has 1.2 million members and online activists, served from offices in New York, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Beijing.
