Public and private sectors were closely connectedin all stages of the accident in the Gulf of Mexico.

We can distinct a couple of phases of the oil spill:

1) Actual accidentwhen the oil rig

occurred

2)The attempts toclose the well andstop additional oilleaking, combined

with the use ofdifferent methods of

safeguarding thesurrounding areaaffected by the oil

spill:

3)Removal of thespilled oil after thecap has been sealedassessing the size of

the damage anddealing with guilty

parties

AT THE TIME

SPILL

HAPPENED

In this case only the states that were affected but not the

whole country had legal jurisdiction.

WHAT WAS

THE

PROBLEM?

Direction of the expansion of the oil spill over the

legislative borders could not be predicted and limited.

WHAT

SHOULD HAVE

BEEN DONE?

In extreme cases such as BP oil spill it should have beenthe matter of national government with preventive and

direct legislation acts of the Congress.


6/9

After BP oil spill the way toward restoration is still long and difficult. Huge losses interms of profits and jobs have damaged local communities.

After a year and a half from the environmmental disaster, the overall economic situationis still facing difficluties in restarting.
