The DDIII is clearing out debris that fell in the bottom of the relief well when crews had to evacuate the [Deepwater Horizon] site last week because of Tropical Storm Bonnie.Once the debris is cleared, engineers plan to start as early as Monday on the static kill, which involves pumping mud and possibly cement into the blown-out well through the temporary cap. If it works, it will take less time to complete another procedure known as a bottom kill, the last step to permanently sealing the well by pumping mud and then cement in from the bottom, which could happen by mid- to late August.
