Louisiana Governor Sues Federal Agency Over Offshore Environmental Damage
Governor Kathleen Blanco sued the federal government on Thursday in an effort to increase Louisiana's cut of the federal royalties generated by oil production off the state's coast. The suit seeks to block the federal Mineral Management Service from holding a scheduled lease sale of 4,000 blocks in the western Gulf of Mexico for oil and gas exploration.
