Do you think these oil companies wanted to use the best science available in their pre-drilling environmental assessments?

They might well not.  The basis of Mr Ford's complaint is the lack of standardization in requirements for these studies.  There aren't sufficient rules to follow, to set forth what "the best science available" even means when putting these impact studies together. That's what Mr Ford is calling for.
