The agency also says that for the last 13 years, Chevron's average annual revenue in California was $3.34 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two environmentalists who have followed Chevron's problems in the Cymric Oil Field described the penalty as a drop in the bucket for a multinational oil company with big pockets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People shell out more per gallon at the pump for this industry's product than the company will pay for this massive spill,\" said Hollin Kretzmann, a staff attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Oil companies should get more than a slap on the wrist for a million-gallon spill,\" Kretzmann said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gustavo Aguirre Jr., a Bakersfield project coordinator with the Central California Environmental Justice Network, agreed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For a company at the scale of Chevron, I know they can continue to do business as usual,\" Aguirre said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he applauded DOGGR, criticized in the past as being a weak regulator, for taking action, something that Ann Alexander, a senior attorney at the Natural Resources Defense Council, emphasized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"DOGGR's significant penalty is a first step toward trying to prevent future spills,\" Alexander said. \"The state now needs to follow up with not only better oversight, but also addressing the important transition away from the dirty, carbon-intensive crude production that risks these accidents,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chevron can appeal the state's fine.

"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>Federal judges on Tuesday challenged government lawyers over the legality of a Trump administration rule that denies asylum to people who don't come through a designated port of entry, even though the law specifically allows them to apply — regardless of where they enter the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration' label='Related Coverage']The exchange was part of a hearing before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on two cases challenging Trump administration policies restricting access to asylum protections for tens of thousands of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. The hearing in San Francisco addressed both the “port of entry” rule and another policy that forces most non-Mexicans who seek asylum at the border to wait in Mexico while their cases are heard in U.S. immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration has sought to deter the growing number of families and others seeking safe haven in the United States, many of whom say they are fleeing violence in Central America from which their government fails to protect them. The policies are part of a larger effort by the administration to restrict immigration overall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the first case, Justice Department attorney Scott Stewart asked the three-judge panel to overturn a lower court ruling last December that blocked the “port of entry” rule. The government has said the restriction is “an important rule designed to address a crisis at our southern border that is overwhelming our asylum system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In court, Stewart said the rule is valid because it still allows people who don’t come through a port of entry to apply for asylum — even if none of them will be granted it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This ability to apply for asylum, your honor, doesn’t guarantee any substantive outcome,” Stewart told the judges. “This authority to grant asylum is imbued with discretion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge Richard Paez cut him off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It seems kind of odd that Congress has pretty specifically set out when an alien can apply — whether or not at a designated port of entry — and then the agency comes along and promulgates a regulation that basically just wipes that out. How is that consistent with the text of the statute?” asked Paez, who was appointed to the bench by President Bill Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representing a group of immigrant legal service organizations challenging the “port of entry” rule, ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt argued that the asylum restriction was in blatant violation with the language of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not think it would have made sense for Congress to say — and twice now, 1980 and 1996 — you may apply regardless,” said Gelernt. “Congress looked at this issue, understood how dangerous it was to eliminate asylum for people who couldn't make it to a port of entry, and put that language in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second case before the 9th Circuit Tuesday dealt with the Trump administration’s Migration Protection Protocols, known as the “Remain in Mexico” policy. It requires many non-Mexicans who seek asylum at the border to wait in Mexico for their cases to be heard in U.S. immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg in San Francisco blocked the policy. But the following month, the 9th Circuit allowed it to take effect while the government appeals Seeborg’s preliminary injunction. As of late August, 38,000 people had been ordered to remain in Mexico while their asylum cases proceed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='asylum-seekers' label='More Coverage']ACLU attorney Judy Rabinovitz argued that the forced return to Mexico was illegal and asked the court to allow the lower court’s injunction to block it. In particular, she said it was urgent to stop the U.S. from returning asylum-seekers to a country where they could face danger — a requirement of international law known by the French term “non-refoulement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The greatest suffering is with respect to those individuals who are being returned to persecution or torture despite the non-refoulement obligation,” said Rabinovitz. “Our concern is just to ensure that we get relief for those people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge William Fletcher, another Clinton appointee, challenged Department of Justice attorney Stewart, suggesting that the interview used to place migrants into the Remain in Mexico program is flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t even ask if they have any kind of fear,” said Fletcher. “You're not even asking them the key question with respect to refoulement, that is to say, ‘Are you afraid?’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stewart replied that the government doesn’t need to ask because asylum-seekers can volunteer that they fear being sent back to Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Douglas Oviedo, an evangelical pastor from Honduras, is one of the plaintiffs in the Remain in Mexico case. He is one of a few people who have won asylum through that program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking after the hearing, Oviedo said he spent 11 months in a Tijuana migrant shelter, unable to work. Central American migrants face discrimination in Mexico but, even worse, they are preyed upon by local gangs and drug cartels and also by the Mexican police. Women are raped and young people are extorted, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Women and children are hiding in the shelters,” he said. “Migrants don’t leave because they’re afraid to go out in the streets.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Farida Jhabvala Romero contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>The exchange was part of a hearing before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on two cases challenging Trump administration policies restricting access to asylum protections for tens of thousands of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. The hearing in San Francisco addressed both the “port of entry” rule and another policy that forces most non-Mexicans who seek asylum at the border to wait in Mexico while their cases are heard in U.S. immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration has sought to deter the growing number of families and others seeking safe haven in the United States, many of whom say they are fleeing violence in Central America from which their government fails to protect them. The policies are part of a larger effort by the administration to restrict immigration overall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the first case, Justice Department attorney Scott Stewart asked the three-judge panel to overturn a lower court ruling last December that blocked the “port of entry” rule. The government has said the restriction is “an important rule designed to address a crisis at our southern border that is overwhelming our asylum system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In court, Stewart said the rule is valid because it still allows people who don’t come through a port of entry to apply for asylum — even if none of them will be granted it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

How is that consistent with the text of the statute?” asked Paez, who was appointed to the bench by President Bill Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representing a group of immigrant legal service organizations challenging the “port of entry” rule, ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt argued that the asylum restriction was in blatant violation with the language of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not think it would have made sense for Congress to say — and twice now, 1980 and 1996 — you may apply regardless,” said Gelernt. “Congress looked at this issue, understood how dangerous it was to eliminate asylum for people who couldn't make it to a port of entry, and put that language in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second case before the 9th Circuit Tuesday dealt with the Trump administration’s Migration Protection Protocols, known as the “Remain in Mexico” policy. It requires many non-Mexicans who seek asylum at the border to wait in Mexico for their cases to be heard in U.S. immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg in San Francisco blocked the policy. But the following month, the 9th Circuit allowed it to take effect while the government appeals Seeborg’s preliminary injunction. As of late August, 38,000 people had been ordered to remain in Mexico while their asylum cases proceed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In particular, she said it was urgent to stop the U.S. from returning asylum-seekers to a country where they could face danger — a requirement of international law known by the French term “non-refoulement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The greatest suffering is with respect to those individuals who are being returned to persecution or torture despite the non-refoulement obligation,” said Rabinovitz. “Our concern is just to ensure that we get relief for those people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge William Fletcher, another Clinton appointee, challenged Department of Justice attorney Stewart, suggesting that the interview used to place migrants into the Remain in Mexico program is flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t even ask if they have any kind of fear,” said Fletcher. “You're not even asking them the key question with respect to refoulement, that is to say, ‘Are you afraid?’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stewart replied that the government doesn’t need to ask because asylum-seekers can volunteer that they fear being sent back to Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Douglas Oviedo, an evangelical pastor from Honduras, is one of the plaintiffs in the Remain in Mexico case. He is one of a few people who have won asylum through that program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking after the hearing, Oviedo said he spent 11 months in a Tijuana migrant shelter, unable to work. Central American migrants face discrimination in Mexico but, even worse, they are preyed upon by local gangs and drug cartels and also by the Mexican police. Women are raped and young people are extorted, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Women and children are hiding in the shelters,” he said. “Migrants don’t leave because they’re afraid to go out in the streets.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Farida Jhabvala Romero contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

U.S. government officials announced Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Attorney David L. Anderson accused Xuehua Edward Peng, 56, of a \"combination of age-old spycraft and modern technology.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The charges announced today provide a rare glimpse into the secret efforts of the People's Republic of China to obtain classified national security information from the United States,\" Anderson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. is engaged in a trade war with China, but John Bennett, the FBI agent in charge of San Francisco, said international politics had nothing to do with the arrest and charges against Peng.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have criminal spies that are running around in our area of responsibility and it's the FBI's mission to stop this, so what's going on in the rest of the world, it doesn't matter to us,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>FBI Director Christopher Wray has said China poses a more serious counterintelligence threat to the United States than any other country, including Russia. In July, he testified before a Senate panel that the FBI had more than 1,000 investigations involving economic espionage and attempted intellectual property theft, nearly all of which lead back to China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department has brought multiple cases in the last year involving Chinese espionage and has also brought charges against operatives working with the Ministry of State Security as law enforcement officials grapple with how to deal with an increasing threat of China trying to steal information from American companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last October, prosecutors charged a Chinese spy with attempting to steal trade secrets from several American aviation and aerospace companies, the first time an MSS operative was extradited to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anderson did not say how long Peng had been operating as a spy for China's Ministry of State Security, only that the FBI employed a double agent in 2015 who conducted exchanges with Peng in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Columbus, Georgia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over six occasions between 2015 and 2018, Peng would secure a hotel room and leave up to $20,000 there, authorities said in the driminal complaint. The double agent would then get a key to the room, take the cash and leave a digital card containing information, it said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peng would then take the card and travel to Beijing to meet Chinese intelligence officers, authorities said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peng was arrested at his home in Hayward Friday and ordered held without bond at a hearing before U.S. Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Spero. He is scheduled to return to court Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The criminal complaint says Peng is a naturalized U.S. citizen who entered the country on a temporary business visitor visa and became a permanent resident in 2006. Peng was naturalized in September 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He holds an acupuncturist license from the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If convicted, he could face up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post will be updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read the complaint below:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
