Cleanup of oil-tainted Gulf Coast nears end,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
EAST GRAND TERRE ISLAND, La. – Dig 2 feet into the sand on this wind-swept beach and up comes the foul smell of oil.
The unmistakable whiff of crude eight months after the BP spill is one of the last in-your-face reminders of the long, tainted summer on the Gulf Coast.
For months,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in what BP calls Operation Deep Clean,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], crews have been scouring the Gulf Coast's sandy shores for oil — digging, scraping, tilling and sifting beach after beach.
"It's just not happening. We have seven weddings booked. Normally at this time of year I would have at least 30 on the books," Lindsay said. "March, April, May and June should be booked solid right now."
Lindsay said her business is doomed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and she is trying to sell it.
"I'm done. It's just too much. I'm about ready for counseling," she said. "They destroyed our lives. Can you imagine not having a paycheck? I never thought I'd be in this situation. It's just sad."
