Was there any doubt?
Seriously. For NRO payloads, Cape Canaveral is GSO and West Coast is polar orbit.

High inclination "Heavy" payloads have flow from the cape in the past. Lacrosse comes to mind.

Delay. ULA:
Delta IV Heavy NRO Mission Rescheduled for Nov. 19
Cape Canaveral AFS, Fla. (Nov. 17, 2010) - The launch of the United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy with a National Reconnaissance Office payload is rescheduled for Nov. 19, at 6:06 p.m. EST. During closeout processing of the launch system in preparation for flight, engineers detected that the installation of some ground support equipment pyrotechnic ordnance lines did not meet requirements. These ordnance lines fire the “hold down bolts” at liftoff releasing the Delta IV Heavy for flight. Mission managers have delayed the launch 24 hours, which allows time for new ordnance lines to be installed that meet all flight requirements.
The Delta IV Heavy rocket and NRO payload are safe and secure. The current weather forecast calls for a 90 percent chance of acceptable weather for Nov. 19.
