@thawhiteazn Sorry but you are very wrong on that one it was the sole operator in that time Petroecuador didn't even exist the state company part of the consortium had another name, yes it was a minor holder but operation wise the only operator.

visit truecostofchevron . com and see that this in not the only case where we find bad practice from Chevron, just tell us why do you think Chevron asked to move this to Ecuador in the first place?

@danman801

Frankly I don't give two shits about McGovern

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801 And I suppose the other two organizations were paid off as well then?

There is plenty of fraud that has been committed by the Judges and other Ecuadorian officials involved against Chevron, why don't you just look at the Times?

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801 And the other two independent environmental organizations?

It was not the sole operator, and was only a minor holder compared with Petroecuador. Just because people from your country want Chevron's money, doesn't make it their fault. And I've seen the Daryl Hannah pics and others in which they were taken to horribly polluted areas, and told it was Chevron's when it was really Petroecuador's land.

@thawhiteazn Seach for US congressman Jim McGovern on Chevron and you will see what is the real perspective of a US official that really went to see the damage in my country

@thawhiteazn i suggest you to watch:Judge Jorge Nunez misconduct video series and you will see who Chevron hired to fix the problem in the way that is less costly for them, which support my point that all the reports and agreements you mentioned are far from being a quality solution and just the product of a company maximizing its profit in a corrupt government

@thawhiteazn as the sole operator Texaco is responsible for what the had left, did you know that Chevron tried to bribe the last judge in this case in order to have him rule on their favor?? The state oil company has a part here, yes but Chevron Texaco has to pay for what they did which is maximize their profit with poor practices and with a remediation that has not fixed the damaged made to the amazon forest. The report mention that all the pits where verified and that is simply on paper

[danman801]

@thawhiteazn all sounds very nice, taken from wikipedia?? why do you think Chevron asked the U.S. court to move this case to Ecuador?? Let me help you because there was easier to bribe authorities as in the the case of the 40M remediation that you mention where some pits were never touched and most were done with low standards. Yes the Ecuador government signed the agreement but the work was not properly done. The actual government is the first to visit the zone

On September 30, 1998, Ecuador's Minister of Energy and Mines, The President of Petroecuador and the General Manager of Petroproduccion signed the "Final Release of Claims and Delivery of Equipment." This 1998 agreement finalized the Government of Ecuador's approval and certification of Texaco Petroleum's environmental remediation work and stated that Texaco Petroleum fully complied with all obligations established in the remediation agreement signed in 1995.
