Oil in Yellowstone
« on: July 03, 2011, 05:53:29 PM »
Heard on NPR that 1000 barrels of Exxon oil spilled into the Yellowstone.

Anyone know how it's affecting the watershed in that region?

It's a sad occurrence but it happened near Billings, which is below most of the trout water. Probably killed a bunch of paddlefish though.

I read yesterday that they felt like most it could be recaptured. I hope so...

I heard only about 15% to 20% will be recaptured...its flowing too fast to set up traps. Alot will dissipate but if I was a farmer on the banks of that river I would be really concerned.  Drill baby drill...
