There's a mix of jurisdictions, but ocean beaches would ultimately fall under federal oversight as a national border, whereas highways are nominally state entities (think of the armtwisting that the fed had to go through to get states to agree to 55 MPH speed limits). Most highways and all interstates, however, are covered by the commerce clause and largely funded via the Federal Highway Administration.
Not sure I completely buy that, since beaches down to the waterline in California can be private whereas Oregon state law prohibits the privatization of beaches believing they're to be held in public trust and no one can own them.

Thomas Jefferson proposed giving coastal states a 3 mile buffer own owned rights. This was enacted by Congress in the 1953 Submerged Lands Act, stipulating that states had rights over sea and seabed extending from the mean low water mark out to 3nm before the federal government took over jurisdiction out to a further 9mi from the mean low water mark, for a total 12nm of territorial waters.

Federal management starts at 12nm from the coastline and extends out to territorial waters and further out to the exclusive economic zone (200nm) where foreign flagged vessels, in air, on and under sea may not be prohibited from transiting.


May be able to further clarify this. ORS 390.605 governs public use lands and ORS 390.770 defines the landward limit of public use as the vegetation line.

I've tended to shop at Albertsons over Safeway. The Safeway nearest to me seems to be a little more expensive and definitely more crowded, primarily by college students. Lines are long and slow, never enough checkers. I also don't care much for Winco, though I have purchased dry goods there before, much the same situation, lines are way too long, and slow and the times that I have bought fresh produce there, specifically meat & vegetables they've gone bad way too quickly. Specifically the deli sliced lunch meat had turned in 3 days and had a sour smell when I went to use it. No thanks! :shrug:

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:

This is absurd, since they don't clear the sidewalks wherever the motorcade might pass by, and that offers a much better position than "eyesight of the rail". If we're going to accept total paranoia why not just issue a total curfew for the metro area whenever the President is in town?

Hell, there's only like 160 light-rail cars or so in the whole system anyway. Just stick a couple National Guard soldiers on each car.
I'm going to speculate it's more a concern of the motorcade being held up at a level crossing either because of normal train operation (the trains don't/can't just stop) or because of nefarious reasons, attempting to disable a train to delay the motorcade or even just disable a train so that normal traffic cannot take that route, thus making people divert to an alternate route, perhaps one that the motorcade has designated a primary or secondary route leaving that much more congested for the motorcade to deal with.

The ongoing situation in Malheur country right now is complete poo poo. The BLM/F&W are some of the most completely corrupt gov. departments I've had the displeasure of working for/with. As much as people love to dismiss anything east of Troutdale as rednecks being rednecks, the BLM and ODFW are railroading that family, and need to be held accountable for cutting off easements and public right of ways to, well.. the public especially since they were granted continued access rights to their land.
