Here is at least one, and it might be the worst spill in US history. It has been all over the news over the past couple of weeks and was a very easy google away. The EPA along with other organizations like the Coast Guard were lied to by the company that owns the well and also seemingly looked the other way for the most part under the guise that it wasn't really that big of a leak so it's fine to let it continue to fester. Clearly however, they were not doing the envrionmental protection part of their name.
