WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2003 Environmentalists and government attorneys have come to an agreement that spares Secretary of Interior Gale Norton of another contempt citation, The Bonita Daily-Times reports. Angered over delays regarding the protection of manatees in Florida, a federal judge last year ordered Norton to show cause why she shouldn't be held in contempt. The paper says the two sides have agreed to the establishment of certain zones to protect the animals, so the contempt order will be lifted. Get the Story:
