"MSNBC reported that allegations about BP's maintenance practices have been so persistent that a criminal investigation is under way into whether BP has for years deliberately shortchanged maintenance and falsified records to cover it up. Further, that current BP employees claim they've been told to cut back chemical applications ordinarily put into the system to retard rust and corrosion, and to falsify records. That a federal official confirmed that many of these workers have also talked to the FBI.

In announcing the shutdown BP acknowledged that a key maintenance procedure to check for sludge otherwise known as "pigging" had not been performed for more than a decade."

They only made $7.27 billion profit in the second quarter, you expect them to inspect pipelines with that money?
