Not One Drop : Betrayal And Courage In The Wake Of The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill

Attribution
Riki OttPublication Details
BookChelsea Green Pub2008Description
In the early 1970s, Alaska Senator Ted Stevens promised Cordova fishermen “not one drop” of oil would be spilled in Prince William Sound from proposed tanker traffic and the trans-Alaska pipeline project. Contrasting hard-won spill prevention and response measures in the Sound to dangerous conditions on the trans-Alaska pipeline, Ott critically examines shifts in scientific understanding of oil spill effects on communities and ecosystems, exposing fundamental flaws in governance and the legal system.
