    The BP oil company, which provided the video, says it has been siphoning about 2000 barrels of oil a day using a narrow tube inserted in the well. But Barbara Boxer, the chair of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, says too little progress is being made.

    "This is an ongoing nightmare. And if ever we are going to reform, you know, it's now." The California Democrat wants ________________________to be more effective.

    The lead agency is the Minerals Management Service or MMS, which is part of the Interior Department. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar admits there have been lapses, and that federal regulators have been too sympathetic in the past to the oil industry. But he told the Senate panel that things are changing.
