Plans for seismic tests off Virginia coast rejected by federal officials

"Plans for seismic testing for oil and gas deposits off the Atlantic coast have been shot down, the latest in a series of decisions by the Obama administration that pleased environmentalists but rankled companies pushing for offshore energy development."
"Oil and gas companies had argued that the surveys should be allowed to go forward, and say there’s no proof airgun blasts harm marine creatures.
They’re hoping the incoming Trump administration will allow drilling in the Atlantic, and say higher-powered computing and modeling now used likely would enable more potential deposits to be identified than when the last seismic surveys were done more than 30 years ago".
I could only hope that this administration would at the least...equal the past administration with regards to all. Obama did a good job with regards to the Oil and gas Industry.
