What I am about to
tell you is and has
to do with one of
the largest
corporations in the
world and thier
lies.I am a licensed
Master Coast Guard
Captain.This all
started in the
Spring of 1989 in
Prince William Sound
,Alaska when the
super tanker the
Exxon Valdez ran
aground on Bligh
reef.At the time I
was working in
Alaska at various
ports , then the
Exxon Valdez ran
aground spilling
crude oil in one of
the biggest oil
spills in North
American
history.What
happened the next
several years in the
oil spill clean up
is one if not the
biggest cover ups
and lies of our
time.Just after the
crude oil had spread
through out Prince
William Sound and
the Kenai Peninsula
Exxon decided the
magnatude of the
oilspill was just
too big to use hot
water spraying to
disapate the crude
oil off the beaches
so Exxon
incorporated the use
of Chemicals to try
and further clean
the most beautiful
place in North
America ,Prince
William Sound . I
was hired to
transport the
chemical "INIPOL" on
a vessel so the
beach workers could
spray the crude oil
in what Exxon
believed would clean
the beaches alot
faster and alot
better.Exxon bought
the chemical "INIPOL"
from a French
company that had
used the INIPOL on a
spill years before
in Europe. The MSDS
(material safety
data sheet) from the
French company (
which I obtained
from undisclosed
sources )said that
the chemical "INIPOL"
was a very hazardous
to anyone or
anything that came
in contact with it
without protection ,
the sheet went on to
say that labortory
mice exposed to the
chemical also came
down with cancerous
tumors. Now when
Exxon bought the
rights to "INIPOL"
they wrote their own
MSDS sheet that said
that the chemical
was not hazardous if
you were exposed to
it, that is a lie
and we the people
that were in contact
with "INIPOL" have
since the beginning
of the oil spill and
the use of the
chemicals have
endured major
medical problems ,
such as cancerous
tumors ,major blood
clotting problems
just to name a few
and we have gone
unheard of because
nobody such as
lawyers have enough
gall to go up
against the Exxon
empire. I am a
living example of
what has happened ,I
had cancerous tumors
removed from my
stomach in 1994 and
now I have major
blood problems and
am 100% disabled
because of Exxon's
lies. There are
hundreds of us ,
possibly thousands
that were exposed
and now have major
problems .All I want
to do is bring light
to this problem that
Senators and
Congress men and
women including the
EPA ,OSHA ,and
countless others I
have told and
written to over the
years have ignored
because no doubt
Exxon has them in
their pocket. I know
first hand that
there have been some
deaths as well as
deformed babies
because Exxon
covered up and still
is ignoring that
countless people
whom worked to
return Alaskan
Beaches to their
once pristine beauty
after they caused
one of the largest
if not the largest
oil spills in North
American history and
then lied about it.
I feel some what
responsible because
the vessel I
operated and
Captained for Exxon
supplied the deadly
Chemical "INIPOL"
and now there are
alot of sick people
and I should have
known better but I
never got the real
truth until it was
to late.I thank you
for reading this and
I am telling you the
truth , believe me I
do not have anything
to lose and if
enough people know
the truth then maybe
in some weird way we
can make big
corporations like
Exxon stand
accountable for
their lies. Thank
You for your time .
