E-mail topic: What Happened to the Oil Spill?

In May an oil company had an oil spill. It was in the paper and on the radio when it happened but nothing since then. The bill has exceeded one million dollars and growing. What's the latest and why hasn't there been any updates on this situation from the paper or radio?

Was there not two companies? one that did the cleanup and one that was hired to track the source of the oil? am i correct that the second company hired the first as a contractor? why cant the city public works manager sign contracts? were bills sent to may oil? will taxpayers have to pay for this? why cant we get an answer from the city? it did happen in the city? i have lots of questions

Guess what? They dug it up and burried it! The only thing that can top that is what they paid to have it done! Or is it what we paid a manager to pay a scientist to tell the manager to hire someone to tell someone else to dig it up and bury it somewhere else so the manager can tell the taxpaers he got rid of it but the tax payer will have to pay the consequences because they can't figure out how to squeeze blood out of the turnip that cause all this hysteria. Figuring all that out is why they get the big bucks.

I think you all should call for a full investigation of everyone who holds a public office! Laughable.
