Reply #6: You used a link but wrote your own narrative

In the link it clearly states :

John Dickerson, guest host of CBS' "Face the Nation," asked Allen about BP's plans: "Earlier in the week there was a little bit of confusion and a message from BP that maybe the relief well might not be necessary?"

"There was an inference early on that there might be an option," Allen said. "That is not the case. I've discussed this with Bob Dudley. The relief well will be finished."

>

The company had been mulling alternate uses of the relief well, but federal officials have insisted it should be used for the bottom kill. Allen's comments Sunday seemed to close the book on the matter.

Something about that you can't quite grasp ? The previous reference BP made and then almost immediately retracted was in relation to possibly drilling elsewhere in the Macondo field.
