$40 Million isn't enough!!!!!

Fine the company for sure but shouldn't an actual person or persons be charged for these offenses? A little jail time seems appropriate to me.

Totally agreed KV1. If a licensed member of the Deck Department (e.g. Karl Lilgert on the Queen of the North) can be held criminally responsible for their actions - why can't the Engine Room?
