Does anyone in Australia or NZ know more about this report? It sounds very bad and dramatic, as well.

Poor things! There may be two tankers involved now.

I will bet they are Chinese coal carriers.

The Chinese are always running into other ships, bridges, or running aground where the are not supposed to be

Yes, do you have any current info on the clean up and aftereffects?

Obviously we have much to learn from having so many spills already.

Clean up of what? The ship was refloated and sailed on to Japan fro repairs.

I wanted to hear about the cleanup of any other oil spilled beaches.

Any information from residents would be greatly appreciated.

From any spill, anywhere.

Thanks, and sorry for the misunderstanding.

Yeah, the date the video was posted was June 8, 2007.

No drama now.

I'm sorry to see this thread die so quickly, perhaps it was unclear in the title.

Being a resident of the South, and deeply concerned about the future of our area, I was hoping to hear about clean-ups that have already happened, and how it worked out (or didn't).

Not from the MSM, but from residents, who can give eye-witness information about the aftermath of a clean-up.

Does it really work? Are the areas dead zones? And for how long after the clean-up?

Anyone?

Wow, these folks are organized. The link above contains updated lists of Australian oil spills, photos, reports of cleanup and containment, and media archives.
