The EPA allowed BP to use 650,000 gallons of Corexit,
even when it knew the stuff was banned in Britain, before deciding they should use something less toxic?

Although if he would fire that crazy b*&^ch it would be the first thing he has done that I approve of

I heard that the COE is demanding an environmental study. So no permit is what I take that to mean. By the time you wait on an environmental study to come out the marsh will be long gone.

He did not directly address widely broadcast news reports that more than 100,000 gallons of an alternative dispersant chemical call Sea-Brat 4 was stockpiled near Houston and available for application.

may be something behind the scenes as to why BP is doing this

I understand that completely. But it seems as if their attitude about it is one of "we're going to do what we want, how we want it."

That goes from them not allowing people other than what BP has on payroll to have any sort of insight into how much they are spilling, what the adverse side effects of corexit is, and why they are not looking harder at the alternative.

If corexit is banned overseas, and they do drilling over there, obviously they have some other alternative for cleaning up spills that is safer than what is being used. There is nothing wrong with wanting explanations about what is being used in the GOM, or for that matter, not used.
