Please note that last sentence.Cleanup workers are currently using boom to contain the spill, but oil is still shooting 20 feet in the air from the severed pipe. A contractor who handles wild wells is also on the way, said Bonano.Federal officials do not know who owns the well.
For the love of Pete. Is anybody in charge of anything any more?
Less regulation! That's what we need!
A tugboat or other workboat collided with the well near Bayou St. Dennis, La., shearing off its valve structure and releasing pressurized natural gas and light oil, DHS official Deano Bonano told Fox News.[...]
Oil is spewing about 20 feet in the air from the severed 4-inch pipe, a contractor who flew over the leak told Fox News. The area has been evacuated and civilian boats are being told not to enter the scene, where "a fair bit of oil" is leaking out, the contractor said.
