Answer:

<em>The Minerals Management Service (MMS)</em>

Explanation:

In 2010  Deepwater Horizon project exploded and killed 11 people causing also the largest oil spill in US history.

The MMS was the federal agency responsible for overseeing offshore drilling, however, they had received financial favors (bribes) from oil companies and had a severe conflict of interest, they ignored science and underestimated environmental impacts in order to ensure the speedy approval of oil industry projects among other acts of negligence. The MMS was in part responsible for this event, or at the very least for not handling correctly.
