Yes, it was signed off early last year, 1 1/2 months into Obama's administration. The whole of MMS is corrupt. It did not suddenly become so January 20, 2009. It became so under the oil men of the Bush administration. But Salazar did little to nothing about it after he was appointed director of MMS when Obama became President.

I don't think it was high on the to-do list, considering Obama inherited an impending depression and two wars - but that is not an excuse for no change occurring within that agency in the past 16 months.
