One of the parish presidents had suggested that a sand berm be built outside the barrier islands to stop the oil from getting in the marshes. The Corp of Engineers and the EPA are ‘studying the enviornemental impact’ of the plan. Duh!! What is a worse impact? Millions of gallons of oil in the fragile marshes or dredging the sea floor to block the oil?
Reagan was right; all too often government is the problem.
One of the scientists that was on the team to figure out the best way of dealing with this was kicked off the team due to his feelings opposing homosexuality.
The feds have also forced BP to stop spreading a certain dispersant.
Just watch.
After the oil has completely rolled in, they will give permission to dredge!
