BP/Gulf Oil Gusher

All Operational Hard Boom Removed from Mississippi, Alabama and the Florida Panhandle

MOBILE, Ala.–(ENEWSPF)–Sept. 7, 2010.  All of the hard (containment) boom deployed as part of the federal-led response but now potentially posing more risk than it offers protection for vital shorelines in Mississippi, Alabama and the Florida Panhandle has now been recovered. The Incident Command Post (ICP) at Mobile announced that more than 1.6 million feet of hard boom has been removed from those state waters. Crews are currently in the process of removing the remaining fragments of storm-damaged hard boom from areas where it was stranded.
