Big Polluter claims Corexit is the best dispersant it has for the Deepwater Horizon blowout, tells EPA it's not going to change, and isn't interested in how this is affecting deep-sea dispersal, or anything other than trying to make the surface look a little less oily.
So far, the sound from EPA? Crickets.
Meanwhile, BP's Chief Extortion/Excuses Officer Tony Haywood says next week's "top kill" may well not work! The one tenuous silver lining is that this makes deepwater offshore drilling less and less trustworthy without MASSIVE new regulations.
Meanwhile, the real, slick oil now hitting beaches may be impossible to fully clean up out of Louisiana's entangled wetlands. Prince William Sound in Alaska had bare beaches, not thickets of subtropical flora.
