USA/ALASKA: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed that an air quality permit be issued to Shell Offshore that would regulate air emissions from the Kulluk floating Arctic drilling rig. Shell wants to use the Kulluk rig to explore for oil and gas in the Beaufort Sea, north of Alaska.
The EPA has determined that air emissions authorized by the permit would not adversely affect the health of those in nearby Arctic communities. The “minor” permit limits emissions of any single air pollutant to 245 tons per year for activities associated with the drill site. Without the limit set by the permit, the drilling project could trigger “major” permitting, which requires a more rigorous permitting process and technology review.
Shell originally applied for two minor permits, but recently scaled back drilling plans in the Beaufort Sea to one rig due to a court order blocking the plans. The Environmental Appeals Board of the EPA also appealed the two permits and ordered the EPA to provide a basis for its decision to treat individual drill sites separated by 1,640 feet (500 m) as separate minor sources, or modify its source determination. The EPA modified its determination as to what constitutes a single stationary source, revised the ambient air impact analysis, and added or modified permit terms and conditions.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
