The Minerals Management Service estimates that the outer continental shelf (OCS) contains 86 billion barrels of oil and 420 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. All of which is currently off-limits. VA and SC want to get together and work on a way to tap part of the Atlantic OCS. NC Republicans want their executive office to join in with the two states, and Bev "I was for offshore-drilling before those nasty Republicans tried to force me to support offshore-drilling" Perdue has a hissy fit about the constitutionality of the legislature forcing the governor into a compact with other states.
