Video from last night taking a sample of the oil found on Santa Rosa Beach. This is not just a few little tar balls, but a whole sheet of oil inches thick and 15 feet long... and that was just what was exposed on the surface. Demand that the oil is removed from our beaches and that offshore tarmats are mapped and removed. Leaving it, breaking it into small pieces, or covering it up with sand are not acceptable.

  • On the front page of the paper today it said noaa delays dolphin testing. no tissue

    samples have been sent to any laboratory, says federal scientist, who blames complications related to oil spill litigation for the slow pace. Bull crap, do your job and test them or stop taking my tax dollars so you can protect B.P. oops I meant american citizens.

  • The UV light they are using is made in the USA by the Vertek Division of Applied Research Associates. It is one of the Low Voltage Ultra Violet (LVUV) series Oil Fluorescing Spotlights. You can read more about fuel fluorescence at uvoil.com.

    We are currently working on subsurface technology that can characterize the tar layers on the beaches and also the subsea tar mats without disturbing the sand/sediment.
