Three weeks after Katrina, 500 specialists are working to clean up 44 oil spills the Coast Guard said, going far beyond initial reports of just two significant spills south of New Orleans.
The Coast Guard estimates more than 7 million gallons spilled from industrial plants, storage depots and other facilities around southeast Louisiana. The oil could threaten the region’s fragile coastal marshes. Crews recovered or contained nearly 4.3 million gallons.
