House overturns Haley's port veto (+ emails)
South Carolina House Republicans and Democrats alike blasted Gov. Nikki Haley on Tuesday for vetoing their resolution expressing displeasure with a state agency's move to clear the way for the deepening of Georgia's Port of Savannah.
The House overrode Haley's veto of that resolution by a 111-to-1 vote.
"This is a political ploy," state Rep. Jim Merrill, R-Berkeley, said of Haley's veto. "Once again, (Haley) is working more on behalf of Georgia, when it comes to this permit and this issue, than she is on South Carolina."
At issue is a water-quality permit for the Savannah port that was issued by the Haley-appointed board of the state Department of Health and Environmental Control. Lawmakers have charged the permit, which helps clear the way for deepening the Georgia port, hurts South Carolina, where the port of Charleston also needs to be deepened.
Earlier this month, both the House and the Senate unanimously passed a resolution disavowing DHEC's permitting decision and claiming the board lacked the authority to issue the permit.
Haley has defended the DHEC board's decision. In her veto message, she said the Legislature is overstepping its authority by trying to influence the issue.
Only one House member, state Rep. Ralph Norman, R-York, voted to uphold Haley's veto of that resolution.
The vote came on the same day that documents were released showing sharp differences between the state's two environmental agencies over the Savannah harbor-dredging proposal.
Internal records show the S.C. Department of Natural Resources still thinks the more than $600 million project threatens fish and wildlife and plans to offset the environmental impact were poorly drawn.
Because DHEC never asked Natural Resources for its opinion on a compromise that allowed the dredging, water quality and wildlife will suffer, according to records released through the office of state Sen. Brad Hutto, D-Orangeburg.
"DNR was not consulted relative to the last minute negotiations, nor was DNR asked to play any role in crafting or reviewing the final agency decision,'' read a Dec. 9 email from Bob Perry, a DNR permitting official. "We believe the document is severely flawed and does not protect water quality or other natural resources.''
A key concern is the use of equipment to inject oxygen into the Savannah River, an attempt to offset the effect of dredging on water quality. The system "will not work ... and it will be doomed to failure at the peril of aquatic resources,'' a Dec. 5 email from Perry to a state Senate staff member said.
The records also show Natural Resources was adamant in opposing a DHEC plan to smooth over differences between the state agencies after the Nov. 10 Savannah port deal was announced.
"We will not alter our position to provide cover for their board and staff decisions,'' Natural Resources director John Frampton wrote in an internal email dated Nov. 18.

Fred Eychaneris one of the most powerful political players and tycoons you've never heard of.
Hillary Clinton, the leading Democratic presidential candidate, collected $250,000 when she visited the Chicago mansion ofFred Eychanerin May for a fundraising event. The occasion prompted a rare bit of media coverage of the multimillionaire mogul usually described as "reclusive" or "secretive" in media accounts because he avoids interviews and cameras.
"Everybody working together needs to make Hillary the next president," the 70-year-oldEychanertold the gathering of rich Democrats.
Most Americans haven't heard ofEychaner(pronounced Eye-can-er). Those versed in media giants are certainly familiar with Rupert Murdoch or Arthur "Pinch" Sulzberger. Those who know the political donor class know about George Soros, the Koch brothers and Tom Steyer. Eychaner is a media mogul political donor who manages to operate under the radar.

Not since the years before the Watergate scandal has a small cadre of mega-donors influenced our elections as much as wealthy givers such as casino tycoon Sheldon Adelson, DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg, Texas homebuilder Bob Perry, and Chicago media mogul Fred Eychaner did in 2012. These men and a few dozen others pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into super-PACs and shadowy nonprofits and raised tens of millions more for presidential and Congressional campaigns.

Alphawood Foundation chairman Fred Eychaner charges developers at the FDR Four Freedoms Park reneged on their promise of a prominent public display acknowledging his generosity.
Who Is Fred Eychaner, the Left's Most Reclusive Mega-Donor?
While Democrats attack the rich across the country to gin up votes as part of their 2014 election strategy, one self-described "progressive" Democrat donor is so secretive with his wealth that Forbes magazine isn't sure if he is even a billionaire.
Meet Fred Eychaner (pronounced Eye-can-er), a gay-rights activist and possible billionaire from Chicago who has given $4 million to Harry Reid's Super PAC attacking shadowy billionaires. Eychaner gave so much money directly to federal candidates thathe violated the legal maximum for 2012,according to Public Integrity. He donated $14.1 million in total to super PACs last cycle and has given a total of $5.8 million so far this cycle - more than any donor who supports Republicans.
Eychaner routinely ranks as one of the top three largest donors in America, after only fellow liberals Michael Bloomberg and Tom Steyer. But while Steyer and Bloomberg are if not household names then well-known in the political class, Eychaner has eluded scrutiny. National Journal tracked Eychaner down in May, but he has remained out of the spotlight for nine years.
Just how much money does Eychaner have? Even Forbes Magazine isn't quite sure.
Pete Newcomb, senior editor for Forbes, was asked, "do you have some individuals that you suspect should be on the [Forbes billionaire] list but who won't confirm it?"
Newcomb's reply:
Yes, we profiled someone in the current issue named Fred Eychaner, a media mogul from Chicago. My hunch is that he's got a lot more than $500 million we attributed to him. He has a lot of investments in various media properties. He's given away well over $100 million (over the past couple years). People who give away that kind of money tend to have a lot more.
Eychaner has been involved in progressive causes for much of the last twenty years. In addition to the Reid SuperPAC money, Eychaner also gave the leftist House Majority PAC $1 million in early May. He hasvisited the Obama White House at least seven times,and he gave at least $500,000 to a SuperPAC supporting Obama's reelection. Obama keynoted a $35,800-per-couple dinner at Eychaner's Lakeview home.
In 2000 Bill Clinton thanked Eychaner and his live-in partner Ken Lee "for opening their beautiful home"; Eychaner gave $25 million to the Clinton Foundation and $100,000 to Clinton buddyTerry McAuliffein his bid for Virginia governorship.
The largest donor to the AIDS Foundation of Chicago, Eychaner, who founded Newsweb Corp. in the 1970s, got his start publishing alternative media, likethe Chicago Reader newspaper that launched President Barack Obama's political career with a 4,400 word feature in 1995.[4,400??]
The lion's share of the fortune of the man who refuses to be called the "progressive Koch brother" comes from Rupert Murdoch, who bought Newsweb's WPWR-TV station in 2003. Eychaner was listed as the "reclusive" owner of Air America's Chicago outlet and routinely comes up among the top 20 Democratic donors. He is listed on the boards of the Joffrey Ballet and the Art Institute of Chicago.
Eychaner has also been strategic about who he has hired for his Alphawood Foundation. In 2012, he hired Sun-Times Media general counselJames McDonoughin a move to avoid media scrutiny. When the Chicago media writes about him at all, it's usually praise for some gift he has given or for his support of same-sex marriage in Illinois.
Eychaner gave an $11 million gift to honor Franklin Delano Roosevelt in Manhattan - and then sued to make sure a plaque with his own name would be on the monument. He reportedly gave money to ACORN, according to former employee Anita MonCrief.
In 2005, the Chicago Tribune reported that "Eychanerranks fifth nationally as a lifetime donor to the Democratic National Committee and related committeesbetween 1978 and January 2004." But the Tribune noted that Eychaner "refused repeated requests to allow a reporter inside his home or office.
Eychaner alsorefuses to be photographed.
Who is the left's shadowy mega-donor, and what does he want?
Maybe if the media weren't so obsessed with the Kochs, we would know the answer.
