Anonymous Coward User ID: 56085894 Portugal 03/25/2014 06:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated Galveston Bay Oil Spill: Wildlife Damage Expected to Get 'Much Worse'; 100 Ships, Barges At Standstill
March 25, 2014
The nearly 170,000 gallons of oil that has spilled into Texas' Galveston Bay has put one of the nation's most crucial bird habitats at risk, experts say.
Biologists said they have found dozens of oiled birds on parts of the Bolivar Peninsula.
"We expect this to get much worse," Jessica Jubin, a spokeswoman for the Houston Audubon Society, which manages the Bolivar Flats preserve where the birds were found, told the Houston Chronicle.
Environmental groups said the spill occurred at an especially sensitive time and place. The channel in Texas City, about 45 miles southeast of Houston, has shorebird habitat on both sides, and tens of thousands of wintering birds are still in the area.
At least 50 birds of six species have needed treatment due to the oil, said Richard Gibbons, conservation director of the Houston Audubon Society.
Crews have being working around the clock to contain the spill, but traces of oil have still been detected as far out as 12 miles in the Gulf of Mexico.
Crews lined the sand on Galveston Bay Monday, capturing tar balls as strong tides kept pushing more onto the beach, The Associated Press reported.
The best-case scenario is for most of the slick to remain in the Gulf for at least several days and congeal into small tar balls that wash up further south on the Texas coast, where they could be picked up and removed, said Jerry Patterson, commissioner of the Texas General Land Office, the lead state agency on the response to the spill.
However, officials said Monday night that changing currents, winds and weather were pushing the oil not only further into the Gulf, but also southwest along Galveston Island, resulting in expanded oil recovery efforts.
"Winds will shift southeasterly on Wednesday, with gusts up to 40 mph possible. Thursday into Friday, south winds will slowly diminish from peak values seen Wednesday," sayidweather.com senior meteorologist Jonathan Erdman (Twitter | Google+). Seas are expected to build to 6-8 feet near the Texas coast later Wednesday, with higher than average tides, according to the National Weather Service in League City, Texas.
About 100 barges and other ships were waiting to enter or leave through the channel that connects the Gulf with Houston and other parts of Southeast Texas, U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Andy Kendrick said.
The Coast Guard hopes to reopen the channel to at least some traffic Tuesday, but Kendrick reiterated earlier statements that officials needed to ensure that the water and the ships moving through them are free of oil.
Traffic through the channel includes ships serving refineries key to American oil production.
Refineries in Texas City appeared to have enough crude oil on hand to continue operating until the ship channel can re-open, Patterson said.
Parts of Galveston Island were closed to the public as the cleanup entered its fourth day.

Seawolf Park in Galveston, a popular spot for fishermen and tourists, was closed after small amounts of oil were spotted in the water, manager John McMichael said.
"Anytime you shut down the park, it's going to have an economic impact," McMichael said. "How much, we don't know because we don't know how long the park will be closed."
Jim Guidry, executive vice president of Houston-based Kirby Inland Marine Corp., which owned the barge, has said the company — the nation's largest operator of inland barges — would pay for any cleanup costs.
"We're very concerned. We're focused on cleaning up," he said. |
