Of course they did. Fixing it would cut into profits and hurt their "clean green" image so they didn't do anything.

In a sane world, fossil fuel companies-- by the very nature of the enterprise-- would operate under constant risk of triggers for severely punitive regulations or lawsuits. It says a lot about our national priorities that they aren't worried the costs of ignoring these things on any level.
