The Colorado spill would have been avoided had the EPA team checked on water levels inside the inactive Gold King Mine before digging into its collapsed and leaking entrance, a team of engineers from Interior's Bureau of Reclamation concluded in a 132-page report released Thursday.

Of course it was. It was also completely managed situation until they became involved.

Anyone else notice how that spill disappeared from the news within a couple of days?? Was it because we learned that EPA workers actually caused that spill, and the media can’t abide anything that would reflect badly on the Obama administration, on Obama’s EPA people????

So, the EPA people were accurately portrayed by the EPA guy in Ghostbusters who turned off the ghost containment unit.

They did it on purpose. They need the superfund money.

Paychecks and supervisors on one side of the conference table, lawyers on the other side, Obama at one end and Loretta Lynch on the other.

I see you started with the E’s....The rest of the alphabet should offer up some interesting opportunities also.

You mean to tell me they didn't check to see what was behind the berm before digging into it? Idiots! These are the same kind of Darwin-nominees who end up getting shot while cleaning their firearms 'cause they couldn't be bothered to ensure they're clear. "Look in the mine first? Too simple Gomer, let's just start digging..."

That is almost, almost too stupid to believe. You could make a pretty good case that no-one who can feed and clothe themselves without assistance could be that stupid. That it had to be intentional. Though having seen some incredibly stupid things...I could be convinced either way.

Apparently the EPA never saw or heard one of those public service ads that run constantly here in CO ...

“call before you dig.”

Seems simple. Why did they need more than a two page report to say it?
