New Jersey Governor Chris Christie wants to settle an environmental claim with a major oil company. That settlement is far less than the original estimate of damages. Foxs Rick Leventhal on how some say this whole thing doesnt add up. Reporter environmentalists say there are millions of gallons of Petroleum Waste in the ground and marshes surrounding this former exxon refinery in bayonne, new jersey and another site in nearby linden. A total of 1500 acres of wetlands soiled by exxon according to the state which sued the oil giant for 8. 9 billion more than 10 years ago to cover damages and cleanup costs. But last month, republican Governor Chris Christies Administration unexpectedly settled the case for 225 million which some democrats called appalling and disturbing. Just on its face when you see 3 cents on dollar based on the state damages claim you take a step back and show concern. Reporter roll call please. On thursday, the democratic controlled state legislature held a hearing on the proposed cement vowing to fight the dole. Suggesting the governor gave what is now exxon mobil a break because the energy firm donating half a Million Dollars to the Republican Governors Association four times more than exxon gave democrats. And christie potential president ial candidate in 2016 might need exxons support. But christie call the criticism absurd since the settlement also requires exxon to pay for the cleanup with no cap. So how much this is going to cost them i dont know but heres the other thing. Neither do they. Because were the ones who ultimately decide either its cleaned up or its not cleaned up and they have to keep going until we say its cleaned up. Anyone who thinks that exxon mobil will complete a comprehensive cleanup of these sites is dreaming. I just dont trust the large corporations to be responsible enough to clean up. I dont trust them any more i would trust my 884 old daughter to clean her room. Reporter lawmakers may still hold more hearings and the matter is open to Public Comments for 30 days.
