US-OIL-ENVIRONMENT-POLLUTION-CONTAINMENT
This still image from a live BP video feed shows oil gushing from a leaking BP oil well-pipe in the early hour of July 10, 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico. Energy giant BP was expected to begin a new effort July 10, 2010 to contain a Gulf of Mexico oil spill by placing a better cap over the gushing well in hopes to stop the flow of oil completely. Admiral Thad Allen, who oversees the government's spill response, said late July 9, 2010 he had approved the plan to simultaneously install the Helix Producer and "capping stack" containment mechanisms over the well. However, the operation will require temporary suspension of the current top hat containment system, which will mean the oil will again be flowing uncontrollably into the sea.
