Title: UPDATE
Source: Texas Brine Company, LLC
Date: December 26, 2012
[...] The sinkhole released vegetative debris to the surface last night. Very little liquid hydrocarbon accompanied the debris, all of which was contained within the boom that is secured around the perimeter. Clean-up crews were able to remove a large portion of the debris and liquid hydrocarbon today. [...]

Tyvm, Rainbow.

If you get a chance, Rainbow, can you film from Hwy. 70 again? The Flyover seems to be intentionally NOT showing the North side, and it can only be for a reason.
Not asking you to go out of your way, but I believe you will find it is much higher.

hey freedom….there would be no point right now. We've had heavy heavy rains and there is water everywhere, so it would not be an accurate video right now.

Actually, the 'Wings of Care' video did show it, and it looks to be diverting towards the TB gate up to Hwy. 70, and not more towards the spot you can see it from. I was worried ya'll would get tornadoes, but I see they went north of you…

This is what they call 'contained'? Unreal. Small amount of oil? Better take a closer look and not just at the ramp!

Oh yeah, saw that Kali. Just don't know how to work that into a story…yet. Very interesting characters indeed. Bobby Jindal material to be sure..

Interesting Freedom…..but, those results are from almost 3 months ago. It would be even more interesting to see those results from recent tests.

Sure, Rain. You go right up to that trailer and demand those test results!
Good luck with that, but honestly, do you believe it will be any better now? All of those pools, ponds, as well as the swamps and bayous are now in direct communication. I hope no one is left in Grand Bayou at all, because it is completley contaminated to the south.
When is the next 'Liars Club' meeting? I mean, 'Resident's Meeting'?

Lessons from Fukushima. Look up at the screen. Gives a much better look at where the oil is. First at .15 in, see the oval globs, small ones, in the southern newly flooded areas and in the same area close to the boom, you see the fresh stuff. Then as the flyover continues, you seen quite a bit of oil and a lot of bubbling in the center, sheen as well as on the northern side. On the northern side, the hwy 70 side, to both sides of the booms, looks like it might be bubbling and oil. See what you think. And the flyover never pans out to show you the HEALTH trees..we only see the grey ones. "Move on,nothing to see here". Some needs to compare. Rainbeaudais, are the trees normally so grey looking and without foliage? Yes, its winter in the swampy area but other places look a lot more vibrant. Thank you !

Jec,
This one was taken by Wings of Care on Xmas Eve. It shows it all. Also looks like some bubbling on the NW side , but could just be a bobbing boom. It looks to me about a foot more of subsidence. Look at water level on the trees.
