EFFORTS TO STANCH OIL SPILL CONTINUE

News-Press- Undersea operations continued Monday to block the oil spill just reaching the Gulf Shores. Deep sea engineers suggested a number of options for BP to stop the well, including:

Pumping methanol and heated seawater into a smaller leak dome to prevent iced-over pumping.

Finishing a relief well to help plug the leak

Injecting drilling mud to other materials to gum up the leak

Also, workers placed absorbent booms on the beach to guard against the oil coming ashore to Grand Isle.

Florida prepares for legal fight over the oil in the near future.
