"The U.S. Coast Guard is currently investigating reports of a potentially massive oil sheen about 20 miles away from the site of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion last April."

The slick is viewable from space and helicopter, but they can't for sure figure out where its coming from.

It might be the Seastar and not the Horizon this time.

D'oh.

This needs more attention. Bump. With all the BS going on overseas, this will easily be overlooked.

Update March 20, 2011: A Coast Guard officer with a command center in Morgan City, LA, said today the Coast Guard has confirmed that the new oil is not coming from the Deepwater Horizon well but that they have found new oil slicks in the Gulf. Their investigation continues. Additional photos from pilot John Wathen have been released and can be viewed in the slideshow attached to this article.
