Bottom kill could be complete by week after Labor Day

Sometimes its okay to know whats going on in our country. Speak Seiko isn't all about just celebrity news. Every now and then I speak on pressing issues. Its sad that so many of us have been so wrapped up in celebrity news that we forget about things that effect us the most. Like the fact that I can't get oysters at my favorite restaurant because of the oil spill. A lot of people don't think about the way that these things effect us as a COUNTRY. Well here is the news about The Oil spill.

If all goes as planned, the bottom kill operation to permanently plug the ruptured underwater well in the Gulf of Mexico should be complete by the week after Labor Day, Thad Allen, the government's point man for the oil disaster, told CNN Thursday.
In the last 48 hours, a sequence of actions has been agreed upon, Allen told CNN's "American Morning." Those include flushing out the current blowout preventer, looking for material that may cause a problem, then put a new blowout preventer on and conduct the "bottom kill" operation.
"This will ensure that we can withstand any pressures that may be generated," Allen said. "If all that lines up, we should be looking at the week after Labor Day."
The oil disaster began April 20, when the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded, killing 11 workers, and later sank. The government estimates some 4.9 million barrels of oil gushed into the Gulf. However, no new oil has been leaking since a "static kill" operation two weeks ago that plugged the well with cement and mud from above.
The "bottom kill" operation is a permanent fix, in which the well will be intercepted by a relief well and the ruptured well will be plugged from below.
