Trump, Scott Angelle rolled back blowout preventer rules in 2019. Biden wants to revive them.

By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor​ ​ ​

Good morning, Acadiana. Let's get down to business this morning.

The Biden administration is proposing to strengthen a set of rules that governs safety requirements for blowout preventers and failures at offshore oil and gas rigs in federal waters.

Those rules were rolled back by the Trump administration in 2019, when Scott Angelle — a former Louisiana Department of Natural Resources secretary, Public Service Commission member and lieutenant governor — led the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, the agency that oversees the regulations.

Have a great day and see you back here Wednesday morning.
