I wish it were easier to blast out obstructions without mega paperwork and obstacles. Once done, sea life would replace any damage in a short period of time. If sea life and grow on toxic bottom paint in a few short weeks, it would re-establish itself on the bottom in less time. Sometimes the environment recovers, sometimes not. What's wrong?

Once done, sea life would replace any damage in a short period of time. If sea life and grow on toxic bottom paint in a few short weeks, it would re-establish itself on the bottom in less time. The last time a permit was issued to lay a new pipeline in the LIS, the public was assured that the bottom would quickly restore itself after the trenching and laying was completed. More than 15 years later, the path of that pipeline is a well lnown "deadzone" with nothing living along it. No fish swim there. It's dead Bart. Destroyed. This is not a secret. The simple fact is that you can't replace in a few years, what evolved over hundreds or thousands of years. So what are you saying the pipeline is leaking? I don't see why it won't restore itself if it was not. |
