Economic And Environmental Impact Of BP Gulf Oil Spill Deepens

A controlled burn of oil is conducted near the source of the BP Plc Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana, U.S., on Thursday, July 15, 2010. BP Plc said that a pressure test on its damaged Macondo well halted the flow of oil into the Gulf for the first time in three months. The oil spill, the biggest in U.S. history, had been spewing 35,000 to 60,000 barrels of oil a day since the drilling rig exploded on April 20. Photographer: Derick E.
