" simple tests could miss subtle but important details.
For example, some of the ingredients in a seemingly acceptable dispersant called Sea Brat #4
may degrade into nonylphenol, an endocrine disrupter
that could bioaccumulate in ever-higher concentrations up the food chain."

LOL. That factor is exactly why BP refused to use it.

It’s already in the food chain. Is this an extinction level event?

I live near Pass Christian. The county supervisor says he can’t stop the EPA from using the local dump for this hazardous waste which could leach into people well water. Just yesterday, MS has closed the Sound to all fishing. Why? because the fish are contaminated. It’s been raining everyday. Today it’s forming right over us raining microparticulates rising from the surface of the contaminated gulf.

How far will this go? The guy next door has 25 head of cattle. I’m imagining corexit raindrops falling on the grass that his cattle will eat causing bioaccumulated contamination of beef in the food chain. Yea, seems very real.

You should see Lake Ponchartrain from the TwinSpan Bridge it’s covered in steams of corexit slicks, while local radio programs are promoting purchase of Lake crabs and fish.
