From slippin2darknezz: Correct efforts to stop the leak by turning the operations over to the Navy should have happened a long time ago.



 No no, I work for the Navy, nothing would happen until the funding is in place, then the engineers would do a study, come up with a plan and then turn it over to contracts who would advertize it for thirty days, then take a few more monthes to review the bids and then the contract would be awarded to the lowest bidder. More than likely some of the higher bidders would protest the award and we would go back to square one.


 I’m sure BP would love to pass this buck to someone else and just pay the bill if it didn’t mean losing their wellhead.
