Friday, March 07, 2008
Senator Lautenberg (D-NJ) introduced a bill (S. 2700) to amend the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 to double liability limits for single-hull tankers and tank barges for 2009, and for other purposes. This bill, as introduced, is worded in a strange manner and may not have the intended effect. (HK Law).
