Pipeline Through Wildlife Refuge Sparks Hearing Fight
Washington AP reports a split in plans to route a natural gas pipeline through an Arctic wildlife refuge in Alaska. El Paso Alaska Co. seeks an 809 mile line from Prudhoe Bay to Point Gravina, then liquefy and ship gas to California. Alaskan Arctic Gas Pipeline would span 2625 miles via Arctic refuge and Yukon to California and Pennsylvania, arguing lower costs. Environmental groups caution wildlife disruption while proponents claim lower gas prices and a cheaper system overall. Hearings before Administrative Law Judge Nahum Litt begin addressing tech and policy, then environmental issues, with decisions expected next autumn.

In Necedah Wisconsin the Catholic Church pressed its two year dispute with Mary Ann Van Hoof by issuing personal interdicts to her and six followers. Bishop Freking said the act is uncommon but aims to separate the Maria vision group from church authority while allowing belief.
