  @tubetime my understanding is that the biden administration didn't appoint anyone new there, so this is a "they both suck (and happen to collaborate)" kind of thing

  it's really sad. besides being excellent investigators, they're also excellent communicators to the general public, publishing numerous videos on their YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@USCSB

    The CSB is an independent federal agency charged with investigating incidents and hazards that result, or may result, in the catastrophic release of extremely hazardous substances. The agency’s core mission activities include conducting incident investigations; formulating preventive or mitigative recommendations based on investigation findings and advocating for their implementation; issuing reports containing the findings, conclusions, and recommendations arising from incident investigations; and conducting studies on chemical hazards. The agency's board members are appointed by the president subject to Senate confirmation. The Board does not issue citations or fines but makes safety recommendations to companies, industry organizations, labor groups, and regulatory agencies such as OSHA and EPA. Please visit our website, www.csb.gov.

  This has links to the whole saga. They put out an article everytime someone joins or leaves as it is of interest to the chemical industry

  @whitequark @tubetime This is VERY incorrect. The only Trump appointment left a while ago. Biden appointed enough people to bring them up to normal members and gave them funding to help clear their backlog.
  I can look up the Chemical and Engineering News articles on it if you'd like.
