Documentary film maker James Fox has released a new video, shot on location in and around Grand Isle, Louisiana.  In the video, James and his crew collected numerous water samples, water with a visible oil presence. One of the water samples collected was from twenty miles off shore, while others were taken from the beach on Grand Isle.

The footage also showed the oil caked hulls of boats from the area, a grim reminder of the true reality we are currently facing in and around the gulf.

Corexit 9500 and 9527A are both being applied daily, with little to no intervention by the EPA. Samples have shown high concentrations of Propylene Glycol, between 360 and 440 parts per million. Keep in mind that 25 parts per million is the excepted toxic limit for fish. This would indicate that some of the samples were 150 times the toxic limit!

Oil and water samples were taken from both the Shores of Grand Isle and from 20 miles out. The preliminary analysis was done at an academic analytical chemistry laboratory. Looking for the likely pollutants from the deep water Horizon Oil spill. It was focused on the detection of benzene and propylene glycol. Benzene and other highly toxic contaminants were very low however the concentration of propylene glycol was between 360 and 440 parts per million.

Just 25 parts per million is know to kill most fish and propylene glycol is just one of many ingredients found in Corexit. In short, the Gulf is being poisoned by BP’s usage of the dispersants even after the EPA asked them to stop back in May. We are willing to provide ANY respected/known laboratory these samples or provide them with more. This is very serious to all people and marine life in and around the Gulf. James Fox

The bottom line is that the situation is out of control and only compounding day by day, hour by hour. The potential for an even larger problem looms on the horizon, due to the possibility that these toxins may reach our water supply in the very near future. As time marches on, the gulf oil spill is proving to be one of the worst disasters in history, one that may end up effecting not just the gulf, but the entire world.
