Gulf oil spill evoked sense of deja vu for Alaskan on presidential commission
ANCHORAGE, Alaska – President Obama in June tapped University of Alaska Anchorage Chancellor Fran Ulmer for the presidential commission investigating the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explosion, and as crude oil continued to spew from the Macondo well 40 miles from shore in the Gulf of Mexico, Alaska’s former lieutenant governor found herself in a helicopter sizing up the spill.

Question by Dead Parrot Society☮: Do you think that Judge Martin Feldman makes a logical argument when comparing BP oil spill w/ Exxon Valdez?
He said:

“If some drilling equipment parts are flawed, is it rational to say all are?” he asked. “Are all airplanes a danger because one was? All oil tankers like Exxon Valdez? All trains? All mines? That sort of thinking seems heavy-handed, and rather overbearing.”

This doesn’t make sense to me. All of these situations don’t acknowledge the possibility of another occurrence, and the Exxon Valdez was caused by a drunk captain.

Just curious from a legal standpoint.

Thanks.
Wow, Abbs, I never thought of that! Too funny.

30 June 2008 Exxon Valdez leaked more than 40 million litres of crude oil into Alaska’s pristine waterways nineteen years ago. Today, oil is still polluting the shores and bankrupted fishermen are still waiting for the billion payout granted in 1994. After a series of appeals by the company, billion became .5. Now that the case has reached the increasingly pro-business US Supreme Court, fishermen fear they could end up with nothing. While ExxonMobil claims the area has returned to robust health, locals tell of vastly depleted fish stocks, which almost disappeared after the spill. ExxonMobil claims the fish fell victim to a virus, a theory disputed by the fishermen, who are backed by scientific evidence: ‘The fish can’t disappear like they’re telling the public. [Exxon's] explanation just isn’t practical,’ says an expert. As the legal case drags on, a fifth of the plaintiffs have died and the rest have lost hope. For them, Exxon has already won no matter what. Yet the oil giant keeps repeating that the spill was a tragic accident and that the company has acted responsibly towards the local communities. Fishermen whose livelihoods were wrecked feel cheated: ‘Exxon says that everything’s coming back and everything’s fine– it’s a lie.’ Produced by ABC Australia Distributed by Journeyman Pictures

Question by Shaun: How was the Exxon Valdez spill cleaned?
I know the current spill is more of a “spew” but what technique did the country use to clean the Exxon Valdez spill… all this BP nonsense got me thinking :)

Answer by fizixx
As I recall it wasn’t cleaned very well, it was rather half-aѕѕed. In fact there’s still oil up there several inches below the surface of some of the beaches.

Wednesday, June 25, 2008 ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Alaskans are describing Wednesday’s ruling in Exxon v. Baker, the case over punitive damages from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill, as a bitter disappointment and justice undelivered. In the ruling the amount of money Exxon Mobil would have been required to pay Alaskans affected by the oil spill was slashed about 80 percent, from $2.5 billion to $507.5 million. Exxon argued before the court that all punitive damages awarded by an Anchorage jury and then reduced by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals should be tossed out altogether. The company argued that punitive damages were not applicable under maritime law. Exxon lost on that point, likely because a Justice Samuel Alito — thought to be favorable to Exxon’s position — recused himself from the debate since he owns company stock. Alito’s recusal paved the way for a 4-4 split among justices. Consequently, the issue turned to damages. If Exxon was to be required to pay damages, how much should they pay? The court decided on a 1:1 ratio of punitive damages to compensatory damages, a number decided by the court itself and one that Alaskans feel was a lowball. Justice David Souter wrote for the court that punitive damages may not exceed what the company already paid to compensate victims for economic losses. Relapsed alcoholic ship captain Joseph Hazlewood’s 1989 tanker crash sent millions of gallons of crude oil gushing into Prince William Sound and launched angry, adamant calls …
