The Associated Press is reporting that the Obama administration would like to lift the moratorium on deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico soon — well before the ban expires Nov. 30.
According to AP:
Michael Bromwich, who is director of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement, said he and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar are gathering information to decide whether to revise or even lift the ban, which has shut down drilling at 33 ocean wells in the wake of the BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
