The Coast Guard has stopped barges that Louisiana sent out to suck up oil and shut them down until they confirm all of them have the proper emergency equipment and the barges manufacture meets government specifications.
They report difficulty in contacting some of the manufacturers.
I wonder if they checked all other vessels so well.
In the end, after the governor contacted the White House, the Coast Guard allowed the barges to return to work 24 hours later.
