According to this link, going after oil companies for bird deaths started occuring in the 1970s.Awkward...
Not really.
The questions are how has it been enforced and have there been amendments to the Act?
My guess - and its just a guess - is that oil companies weren't being prosecuted under the Act for a handful of birds dying in refuse pits 80 years ago. But I might be wrong, I don't know.

So, blaming it on the current administration is simply partisan hackery.
Toro is not blaming it on the current administration, he is blaming it on regulatory overreach. That makes you the partisan hack, something we already knew.
