IDBillzFan Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Word is coming out on ABC News right now that a judge in Louisiana has overturned the WH 6-month drilling moratorium. Ouch. Look forward to the details on this. EDIT: Got this bit from Huffington Post here: NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- A federal judge in New Orleans has blocked a six-month moratorium on new deepwater drilling projects that was imposed in response to the massive Gulf oil spill. Several companies that ferry people and supplies and provide other services to offshore drilling rigs had asked U.S. District Judge Martin Feldman in New Orleans to overturn the moratorium. President Barack Obama's administration has halted the approval of any new permits for deepwater drilling and suspended drilling at 33 exploratory wells in the Gulf. Feldman says in his ruling that the Interior Department failed to provide adequate reasoning for the moratorium. He says it seems to assume that because one rig failed, all companies and rigs doing deepwater drilling pose an imminent danger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
