Since the April 20th British Petroleum (BP) oilrig explosion, more than 800,000 gallons of dispersants have been dumped off the Texas coast.Dispersants break up the spilled oil into droplets more quickly than natural processes, but they spread the oil farther. Dispersants have never been used in the large quantities that BP has used them, and BP has been steadfast in defending its use of some of the most toxic dispersants tested.The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) asked BP to stop using COREXIT 9500 and COREXIT EC9527A dispersants, and switch to less-toxic dispersants, but BP did not comply. Both the EPA and the Coast Guard have started to press BP to scale down its use of COREXIT dispersants by as much as 50 to 80 percent. The Obama Administration has also begun to restrict BP's use of dispersants that are threatening human health and marine life off the coast of Louisiana.EPA data shows that 12 dispersants were more effective on southern Louisiana crude than COREXIT 9500, which can be four times more toxic than the oil itself. EPA tests also show that seven dispersants are less toxic to shrimp, and at least 14 dispersants are less toxic to fish than...more
