BP is continuing to work with the U.S. Coast Guard and other federal agencies and contractors to safely and effectively stop the oil flow from the Mississippi Canyon 252 well and to minimize its environmental impact.
As the nation’s leading scientific resource for oil spills, NOAA has been on the scene of the Deepwater Horizon spill from the start, providing coordinated scientific weather and biological response services to federal, state and local organizations.
