BP is not allowing scientists to go into the waters nearby and make important measurements: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/16/us/16oil.html?hp """ BP has resisted entreaties from scientists that they be allowed to use sophisticated instruments at the ocean floor that would give a far more accurate picture of how much oil is really gushing from the well. “The answer is no to that,” a BP spokesman, Tom Mueller, said on Saturday. “We’re not going to take any extra efforts now to calculate flow there at this point. It’s not relevant to the response effort, and it might even detract from the response effort.” """ its not clear how that NO is being enforced. but its clear the Obama administration is doing what it has to do to keep things business as usual.
