"The department has been monitoring the situation and crafting a spill-response plan with Cooke (Aquaculture), [Ron] Warren said."  It is incomprehensible that there is no spill-response plan in place . . . and foreseeable that this escapement is probable with any operation.  Why aren't aquaculture businesses REQUIRED to have a spill response plan on file, with evidence of the needed repair and recovery equipment on standby?  This is about as dumb as it gets.  I wonder if the taxpayers of WA state will review Mr. Warren's performance and the responsibilities of his position?
