@emptywheel@SarahBurris@MikeElk Sure, but that was not really the question. Who would be day to day primary, my guess is the state agency. -
@bmaz Again, PSM designed to prevent things like Bhopal (& this). In my expe TX cos just chose to pay fines instead.@SarahBurris@MikeElk -
@emptywheel@SarahBurris@MikeElk I am not disagreeing, but that was not the question I asked. -
@bmaz If the most strict regulations--ones designed to prevent this not being enforced--then lack of inspectors issue@SarahBurris@MikeElk -
@emptywheel@SarahBurris@MikeElk Again, that was NOT my question. I understand it is your answer, but its an answer to different question -
@bmaz You seem to have a poor understanding of how reg compliance is supposed to work, though.@SarahBurris@MikeElk -
@emptywheel@SarahBurris@MikeElk Really? My only question is who had the primary day to day regulatory authority. You insist on answering -
@bmaz Reg compliance is based on compliance w/plans tied to PSM. It builds from that.@SarahBurris@MikeElk - 2 more replies
