The decision to ground the ships is under intense scrutiny after Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal expressed his deep frustration with the decision Thursday. “You got men on the barges in the oil, and they have been told by the Coast Guard, ‘Cease and desist. Stop sucking up that oil,’” Jindal said to ABC News. Brassel said the barges are now “back in operating order.” On Thursday night, the Incident Commander in Houma, Roger Laferriere, decided with the captain of the port in New Orleans to inspect the barges when they realized the ships did not have a certificate of inspection to demonstrate safety equipment on board. Thursday morning, the ships were inspected and grounded because they did not have the proper fire-fighting and life-saving equipment. There were also concerns about the stability of the barges. During the day Thursday, the problems were fixed, and the barges are back out on the water today. Brassel’s defense of the decision, he said, was based on the “general Coast Guard perspective” on safety matters. Brassel repeatedly declined to say whether the Coast Guard balances safety considerations in an urgent, disaster response scenario like what is happening in the Gulf versus ordinary circumstances when time is not of the essence. Other local authorities have also decried the Coast Guard’s actions in responding to the spill. For instance, county commissioner Wayne Harris, whose Okaloosa county has gone rogue on the oil spill, said Coast Guard ships ran over booms the county had set up to stop the invading oil.

To: Badeye (#0) So the barges catch fire and crew die by flame and drowning or the barges fall apart and begin to leak and Boofer is here saying that the CG is responsible because in an effort to catch up what they fell behind on they are compromising safety. #67.

What are the chances of that happening? lucysmom  posted on  2010-06-18   13:22:46 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #5. To: go65 (#3) Really? The Coast Guard would have been criticized about another nation's ships and barges? Doubt it, but that didn't happen. What did happen is the Coast Guard stopped the ships, while the oil spill continued to grow with each passing minute. Thats the important point, not what you want to fantasize about here.
