WASHINGTON — Edwin G. Foulke Jr., U.S. Assistant Secretary of Labor for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), today issued the following statement on the Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board's report:
"Today's report confirms OSHA's investigative findings that BP did not make safety and health a priority at its Texas City, Texas, facility.
