News Alert: Gulf of Mexico Oil Slick Appears to Vanish Quickly
Gulf of Mexico Oil Slick Appears to Vanish Quickly
The oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico appears to be dissolving
far more rapidly than anyone expected, a piece of good news
that raises tricky new questions about how fast the
government should scale back its response to the Deepwater
Horizon disaster.
The immense patches of surface oil that covered thousands of
square miles of the gulf after the April 20 oil rig explosion
are largely gone, though there continue to be sightings of
tar balls and emulsified oil here and there.
Reporters flying over the area Sunday spotted only a few
patches of sheen and an occasional streak of thicker oil, and
radar images taken since then suggest that these few
remaining patches are quickly breaking down in the warm
surface waters of the gulf.
