OIL SPILL MEDIA BRIEFINGS


The oil is still out there

August 17, 2010 | Dr. Samantha Joye, Professor of Marine Sciences at the University of Georgia's Franklin College of Arts and Sciences, and Dr. Charles Hopkinson, Director of Georgia Sea Grant, conducted a media briefing to follow up on the report released the previous day, which concluded that up to 79 percent of the oil released into the Gulf of Mexico from the Deepwater Horizon well has not been recovered and remains a threat to the ecosystem.
