Oil Floating To Surface Of Water Brick NJ

This Video was taken on July 7th, 2010 behind my lagoon at 35 Perry Drive Brick NJ.

It shows the water full tiny droplets of oil.

The really weird thing is the oil is floating to the surface from under the water, for example around 2:40 in the video.

As on past occasions the oil was in my lagoon, the next block over and even at the Mantoloking Bridge Miles away.

This video was taken the day before I found tar balls washing ashore Windward Beach in Brick NJ.

Could the same white globs in the current videos from the BP rovers be the same stuff floating to the surface in your video?

Heh, I was initially wondering, "What the heck is a water brick?" ;-)

That sucks that the oil has spread that far. I hope you're staying away from the beaches for now. We'll get through this. :)

Get samples of that and keep some. Have a few tested at labs who've tested Gulf water to confirm it's from the BP spill. This needs to be confirmed because FedGov says it won't come around the east coast.

I am so sad that this is happening. This is a nightmare.

using online current charts, I estimated that oil would reach New England beaches by July 4th... water from the Gulf of Mexico is what warms Cape Cod's southside beaches...of course this oil could be from another source, but lets be realistic. The oil will continue to spread throughout the oceans, even if the gusher is "capped" the damage from poisonous oil+dispersants is ongoing. I would not swim in ANY east coast waters without getting the water tested for toxic dispersants first.
