“I thought you were talking about the oil under the surface of the sand or mud where the shellfish live.”

thats one of the areas of concern. I fail to see how that oil will disperse in 2-3 years without some kind of manual intervention.

Cleaning up that sand for the hundreds of miles of affected coastline is a monumental challenge.

That sounds like a job for The EPA. They're just sitting around picking their noses and looking at porn anyway.

They need to send every employee of that worthless agency down there with hand tools and have them earn their oversized paychecks.

There was a larger spill that this in 1984 that hit the Texas coast. The natural bio organism team cleaned it up in months and the long term “damage” was minimal and no longer noticeable.
