Exxon Valedes anyone .... this is every bit as catastropic for the Kimberley coast and ocean fishing in the area , and still has the potential impact on Kimberley coast beaches , inshore (as well as offshore reels) and the pristine riverine systems in that area ... .
If this had happened off Melbourne , or Sydney , or Brisbane or anywhere that wasn't out sight of 95% of the Australian population , Canberra would be screaming blue murder , and the media would baying for the blood of the CO , the board and the company.... why is the Fed govt treading so softly on this .... ?
The company should be made an example of , made to pay to cleanup totally , and booted out and never allowed to return to oil and gas drilling / extraction in Australia .... the way they handled this has been totally inadequate and imcompetent.
