GAO report cites Angelle for progress during his leadership at Bureau
A U.S. General Accounting Office report cites leadership improvements at the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement during Scott Angelle’s tenure.
Angelle, of Breaux Bridge, served from May 2017 to this January as the agency’s fourth director.
The Bureau was created in October 2011 in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. Eleven people died and 17 were injured in the incident. About 4.9 million barrels of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico.
Prior to Angelle, the Bureau was cited as high risk by the GAO.
