Deepwater Horizon Inspections: MMS Skipped Monthly Inspections On Doomed Rig
Monday, May 17, 2010
There actually has been an investigation, the result of which Salazar came up with the plan to split the MMS into 2 agencies.
These people were found to be literally and figuratively sleeping with Big Oil, and Salazar's solution is to separate the agency's functions so that there wouldn't be a conflict of interest.
Here's another example of non-action by Obama and Salazar on this:
Obama announces that there will be a freeze on drilling offshore. No new permits will be awarded. In the past two weeks, 5 new permits were awarded. The spokesperson for MMS, when asked about the 5 new permits insisted that no permits had been awarded.
Surely the permits have signatures and files on record. Why aren't heads rolling?
