In this episode of The Tactics Meeting, we dive into Washington State's 2025 Best Achievable Protection (BAP) initiative—a comprehensive effort to update oil spill contingency planning regulations under WAC 173-182 and WAC 173-186. Host Dan Smiley explains how the Department of Ecology kicked off the process with a well-attended online meeting and public survey, inviting input on ways to strengthen spill response planning. The episode explores the four key topic areas identified for technical workgroups: Non-Floating Oil Response Whale and Wildlife Deterrence Shoreline Cleanup and Assessment Techniques (SCAT) Aerial Surveillance of Oil Spills You'll learn what Best Achievable Protection means under Washington law, how it drives rulemaking, and why this cycle presents an opportunity for meaningful change in response readiness.  

On this day in 1989, an Exxon supertanker crashes, causing an oil spill which is now considered to be one of the worst in U.S. history. The supertanker, known as the Exxon Valdez, was owned and operated by the Exxon Corporation when it crashed on a reef in southern Alaska.

A Russian national has been identified as the captain of the Solong ship, which collided with a tanker carrying jet fuel earlier this week. Wildlife experts say the oil spill could have a devastating effect on wildlife. We speak to Chief Executive of the Marine Conservation Society Sandy Luk about the impact of the jet fuel spill off the Yorkshire coast.Also in this episode:London sees highest rise in ADHD prescriptions since pandemicAre slushies dangerous for kids?

A Nigerian analyst says the landmark court case in London against oil giant Shell and its Nigerian subsidiary for decades of alleged oil spills in the Niger Delta is an attempt by the affected communities to seek justice. Shell, however, says most spills were caused by illegal third-party interference, such as pipeline sabotage and theft, which is rife in the region. Patrick Nwinyokpugi, a lecturer at the Rivers State University, told me that Shell needs to do a better job of responding to oil spills affecting the Niger Delts

It's Sarah's birthday month, and Susie is debating what to get the woman who only wants snow. We discuss the SNL documentary, and hear why auditioning for the show is a nightmare, we all need more cowbell, and there is one very weird season of the show that almost ended its run forever. Plus, we predict the show will have much more daming documentaries that come out later. We hear about a man who gave up automobiles after an oil spill in the 70s, took a vow of silence that went on for a VERY long time, got a PhD, and changed the world. Susie shares a disturbing new product to hit the market: soup hard candy. Progresso is making lozenges that taste like chicken noodle soup for all the sickos out there who should see a physician rather than eat soup candy. We explain why "flaking" (cancelling plans) is on the rise, why Susie says people shouldn't do it, and how mental health is used as a shield from accountability. We discuss the reality tv show, The Swan, twenty years after its airing, why it was worse than we remembered, and the surprising reason the contestants don't regret doing it.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Visit https://cozyearth.com and use our exclusive 40% off code BRAINCANDY Get 25% off your first month at https://ritual.com/braincandySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The craft beer craze may be coming to an end with more breweries closed than opened across the nation last year. And, frigid temperatures and sub zero wind chills are blanketing the state, but that could change by the end of the week.

A valve failure on an Enbridge Energy oil pipeline in Jefferson County caused a spill that dumped nearly 70,000 gallons of oil into the ground. Senate Minority Leader Dianne Hesselbein is hopeful there will be more bipartisan support in the next legislative session. And, the U.S. Supreme Court is taking up a religious rights case questioning whether the Catholic Charities Bureau in Superior should pay state employment tax.

It turns out that on the same week that Enbridge won approval to reroute an oil pipeline around the Bad River reservation, another one of its pipelines was leaking west of Milwaukee—to the tune of 70,000 gallons by the time it was discovered.

Every environmental organization down in the Gulf during the BP oil disaster had to abide by a 5-year moratorium on ALL of their eye-witness information except as BP allowed. National Audubon did way more than honor BP's rules--they publicly parroted all of BP's false claims minimizing how bad the disaster was.

At the time of the BP oil spill, Laura thought some important organizations were complying with BP more than they should have. Now, as she explains, she realizes that most of them weren't cowardly.

Who can we trust after a major disaster?

Laura visited one of the four rehab centers allowed to treat birds oiled in the Deepwater Horizon spill.

Thousands of ships loaded with oil were sunk during the fierce sea battles of the Second World War. That means they've been sitting underwater for eight decades, with no maintenance or protection. Scientists fear many of these wrecks are now close to collapse — and that a spike in catastrophic oil spills may be on the horizon.

Laura talks about the extremely low-tech and ineffective way BP tried to protect beaches and islands after the spill, and the even worse way they approached cleanup. There are many photos and a video on the accompanying blog post at (https://lauraerickson.substack.com/p/getting-away-with-murder-part-2)

The BP oil spill was when Laura learned just how much power a corporation has over individuals; well-meaning and well-respected organizations and institutions; and our government.

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss what to expect from Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and Dana Bash now that Harris is finally agreeing to an interview. They also weigh in on Democrats and environmentalists ignoring a massive oil spill in the Red Sea caused by Iranian proxies and Politico being horrified that JD Vance is connecting Harris to the performance of the Biden administration.First, Jim is glad to see Harris finally agree to any interview after 37 days of ducking formal, on-camera interviews and press conferences. He and Greg also consider how CNN's Dana Bash will approach the event and which questions need to be asked.Next, they scratch their heads as the Biden administration, national Democrats and prominent environmental groups remain awfully quiet after the Iran-backed Houthis attacked an oil tanker in the Red Sea, triggering an exponentially bigger spill than the Exxon Valdez suffered back in 1989.Finally, they hammer Politico for reporting that GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance "tries to tether Harris to Biden during Michigan rally." Uh, she's the sitting Vice President of the United States. And Jim and Greg remark on how the media and the left are trying to convince Americans that Harris has no political past or involvement in the very unpopular policies of the Biden presidency.Please visit our great sponsors:Zbioticshttps://zbiotics.com/3MLUse code 3ML at checkout to save 15% off your first order.
