U.S. will "push" out BP if spill response falls short

"If we find they're not doing what they're supposed to be doing, we'll push them out of the way appropriately," Salazar said, but he did not specify at what point this would occur or what might be the trigger for it.

 

"This is an existential crisis for one of the world's largest companies," he said, in a reference to the billions of dollars of cleanup and damages costs that BP faces.

Salazar also said BP had agreed to pay cleanup costs beyond the $75 million liability limit set by current U.S. law.
