Four Weeks of Spilling Oil While Solution Rots in Warehouse

Oil boom manufacture Packgen has miles of floating oil containment boom in warehouse right now and they say they can make lots more on short notice. Packgen owner John Lapoint said his company is ramping up production to make 90,000 feet of oil boom per day.

The company notified the government 4 weeks ago that they have oil boom but they they won’t buy it. BP sent representatives 4 weeks ago to check out the manufacturer and they are going to send representatives again this week. The boom is sitting in a warehouse as the coastline is inundated with pollution.

The company can produce more boom than anyone in the US and abroad.
