This look is by the same people who comprised the National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling. They decided to track the progress made on their recommendations in the fifteen months since their final report.
Interestingly, they try to give a succinct indicator of progress by assigning an alphabetic grade to the players. The recommendations were divided into the following five categories and scored accordingly:
- Safety and Environmental Protection B
- Spill Response and Containment B-
- Impacts and Restoration C
- Ensuring Adequate Resources D
- Frontier Areas—The Arctic C
They also graded the players
- Administration B
- Industry C+
- Congress D
It's a good sign that the members of this commission took the time and effort to evaluate just how well or poorly their recommendations were implemented. May others do likewise.
