ExxonMobil and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have both taken former EPA head, Dr Vincent Adams, to task over his recollection of ‘full liability coverage’ for the ongoing oil and gas projects offshore Guyana.
In a letter published in the Stabroek News on August 2 and at an Alliance For Change press conference on Friday, Dr Adams lodged accusations against both the EPA and ExxonMobil. In his letter, he said that former Exxon Guyana President Rod Henson agreed to, and signed the documents including the EPA Permits committing to unlimited liability coverage comprising of insurance plus a parent company guarantee for coverage of all liabilities above the insurance limit.
