“after Seattle ruled that the city’s port must apply for a permit for the company to use it as a hub for drilling rigs.”

I hope so! (And I’m near Seattle - screw ‘em).

Just like the idiot union dock workers. They were having a big strike a month or more ago. The main container company, after the strike was over, closed their operations in the Port of Tacoma.

Shell has been planning to base a drilling rig and tug boats in Seattle before heading up Arctic waters off Alaska.
Seattle is all hot on making $15 the minimum wage for working at McDonald's while turning away high paying energy sector and marine transit jobs.
