I really don't understand why any of you are reading into this all that much??

Common sense tells you that there is a chaotic amount of shite going on around that area and there is ALOT of helicopter and plane traffic already.... So why would you allow every Tom, Dick & Harry out there to go buzz around and inflame the situation and get in the way??

Anyone with any brains should know how bad this is. The 24hr news cyle is doing a good job of letting everyone know how bad this is.

I don't think most people understand how crowded/busy it is in the MC 252 (well site) area. They have 4 huge drilling rigs (with a few yes few more on the way), several huge ROV support vessels, a number of service vessels, a couple huge tranker/production vessels on the way, and a VERY high amount of air traffic.

If every swinging dick with a boat/helicopter/plane was allowed in there then it would be a SAFETY/LOGISTICAL NIGHTMARE bc you know the media has no regard for whats going on. They just want to "break the story". This is NOT a ploy to keep the media out. This is to allow the job at hand to get completed safely and as quick as possible.
