Gulf Oil Mess: Huge Skimmer Standing By for Approval

Reported as Giant skimmer waits for GoM go ahead:
As of this morning (1 July 10) Nobu Su's giant skimmer, the converted 319,869 dwt ore/oil carrier A Whale, was in the Venice, La. area awaiting word on whether the Coast Guard and EPA would allow it to go to work on the Deepwater Horizon spill.
It may work, but we won't know until it's tried.



Hat tip to Lee.

  1. Yes, because we all know how busy the fine folks at the EPA are, dealing with problems much larger than the Gulf Oil Spill, like with 'climate change'...
