Cancel Shells Arctic Drilling Permit

  • by: Kelly Rogers
  • recipient:  Linda Jackson, EPA Administrator

Despite public outcry against Arctic oil drilling, Shell is just weeks away from beginning a major offshore drilling project there. To make matters worse, Shell has recently admitted that the company has known since 2010 that its drilling rigs would be incapable of meeting the required air quality standards for this project but did not bring this to the attention of the EPA until now.  This is not the first issue with Shell’s new project, but despite problems with a runaway barge and a spill containment vessel that is unfit for use, the company has been allowed to continue with their drilling plans to date.
