Saying "goodbye" to a beach near you!


Before the Spill

After all of my previous postings castigating British Petroleum (BP) and its management for its 'less than transparent' actions post-April 20th, BP pulls another even grosser stunt. It seems their CEO, Tony Hayward, can't get enough of my angry postings; he wants more.

In perhaps the most galling stunt by British Petroleum, the feisty oil company has threatened to invoke "trade secrets" to stop the US Environmental Protection Agency from making public its written response to the agency's order to cease using the highly toxic Corexit dispersant. In a report published in the UK newspaper The Independent, the EPA is said to be "evaluating all legal options" to force them to reconsider, "so Americans can get a full picture".

US EPA data on Corexit show it to be one of the most toxic of the alternatives. I wonder if Mr. Obama can twist Dick Cheney's arm a mite to have him talk to his buddies at BP.

I know the reason I moved to Ocean Shores was because of the beaches and waves and Ocean and the wildlife so I will be very upset to see it gone and then their will be know reason for the people to come to the beaches and then their won't be any money coming in to perserve its beauty and we will have to go bankrupt and it is not just Ocean Shores's beaches, its all beaches.
