Some questions:

Can anyone remember the exact date that the holding tank for Murphy floated
off its foundation?  What parts of the parish was still underwater when this
happened?  Which tank floated? (north side of judge perez or south side)(if
north side, close to judge perez or the 40 arpert canal?)

 

There was web page from I believe from the Coast Guard that advised which
oil spills had taken place after Katrina, and how much oil was spilled.  In
this article Murphy was listed as loosing over 100,000 gallons of oil, now
it is reported that only 25,000 gallons were lost.  Does anyone remember
where this article was?    Also, what about a benzene spill that was stated
at the Parish townhall meeting held in Baton Rouge?  

 

I guess I am trying to get a clear picture of exactly how the oil moved
regarding the map that Murphy provided and what happened to the additional
75,000 gallons originally reported spilled, and where did the benzene spill
come from.   

  

Any answers to these questions, please let me know, I believe that we were
told some of the above information, however at this point I cannot seem the
remember much of anything.

 

Thanks for any info you can give.
