Offshore drilling ban lifted!

[dmayers]

I just heard this on the radio, from Washington, ban on offshore drilling is lifted! I hope this is true, Its great if so.

Bout time they did something right..

[BARRY J]

Just saw it on Fox News. It is lifted, but with all the new regulations and inspections, it will be a few weeks before drilling will resume.

[dmayers]

Guess we'll find out for sure on the news...

I see you saw it on the news Barry...

[BARRY J]

It was on about 30 minutes ago. Wonder if having an election in three weeks had anything to do with it.

Now Barry, you know that kinda stuff never happens in Louisiana..

[BARRY J]

It was set to expire in November. They announced today that all the regulations are in place so they lifted it early. The rigs can start drilling after complying with the new regulations. One of the new regulations is that that they have to prove that they can handle a worst case spill. Good luck on that one.
