The lousiana governor was just citing off what the federal commission had said. Its nice to see he actually bothers to see what other powers above him are saying.

Offshore environmental impacts as a result of hurricane events in the [Gulf of Mexico Regional Office] have typically been minor due to the downhole safety valves at wells and operating practices conducted by the oil and gas industry with respect to platforms and pipelines in advance of approaching hurricanes... While cleanup was required, the volume of oil spilled and impacts to shore from offshore infrastructure were categorized as minor.
Feel free to take your anger out on the MMS, Jindal was just a mouthpiece for them.
