Despite plan, not a single fire boom on hand on Gulf Coast at time of oil spill
If U.S. officials had followed up on a 1994 response plan for a major Gulf oil spill, it is possible that the spill could have been kept under control and far from land.
The problem: The federal government did not have a single fire boom on hand.

Do we hear ghosts of Katrina? :ssst:
Why wasn't these fire booms on hand like the federal government had planned?
What is the potential damage from this failure?
