First, the Environmental Protection Agency can relax restrictions on the amount of oil in discharged water, currently limited to 15 parts per million. In normal times, this rule sensibly controls the amount of pollution that can be added to relatively clean ocean water. But this is not a normal time.
Various skimmers and tankers (some of them very large) are available that could eliminate most of the oil from seawater, discharging the mostly clean water while storing the oil onboard. While this would clean vast amounts of water efficiently, the EPA is unwilling to grant a temporary waiver of its regulations.

Because Barack Obama is feeding to the max black racism against innocent whites by taking payback on southern states.
Oh, its way more sinister that that, but you all aren’t ready for it.
Ah, Obama logic: 100% oil in the water is better than 1% percent oil in the water.
Well ,that makes perfect sense... For a Chicago thug/community organizer.
Who is responsible for these BS decisions?
That's a rhetorical question, right?
From the beginning of his presidency it has been Barack’s sole mission to destoy White Christian America.
Isn’t 99.99% of a loaf better than none?
Pray for America
On the bright side, if America is ever struck by a national crisis involving slighted deflated basketballs, or wilting arugula lettuce, we've got our guy for the job.
Where the hell are the Environmentalists? Where the hell are the wimpy azzed Republicans?
This country is lost and it isn’t going to recover. The Elections this November will mean absolutely NOTHING.
Prepare!
Stupid government tricks.
Wow. It happens like fifty times a day that we see stories of stupidity in government. Its a good thing they aren;t in charge of healthcare....
these people are pardoy proofing themselves by being crazier than people would believe.

and I believe it was Will Rogers who said, “it’s a good thing we don’t get all the government we pay for.”
You know, they would clean the oil up.
...but Bush got elected. It’s all his fault.
So enjoy your oil....

They don't want to stop this. This is the BEST fund-raising tool they've had in decades. Plus, it's not quite bad enough yet. Unlike the Valdez, there aren't enough pictures of black-oil covered beaches and drowning whales/porpoises/birds/turtles.
For 20 years (or longer), environmentalist couldn't care less about the environment. They care about the price of oil, and the higher that price the better, for them. They want Americans out of cars, and into trains where they can be controlled. I honestly believe that is what all this is about - $7/gallon gas.
That’s just the wrong thing to say.
“Stupid government tricks.”
O’s version of Letterman’s Stupid pet tricks.
You’re exactly right. On every count.
