Supreme Court sides with Navy in sonar dispute

The U.S. Supreme Court is lifting restrictions on the Navy's use of

environmental groups who say the sonar can harm whales. The court voted
5-4 that the Navy needs to conduct realistic training exercises to
respond to potential threats by enemy submarines.
