million barrels of oil that is in the water in some form, though the government says it is just a light sheenoscopic droplets, but people here are wondering if they can trust those numbers. and they don't want to have this impression that the oil is gone and that everything is going to be okay. and they're not going to see more impacts, because while there may not be the thicker oil coming ashore, there certainly is this feeling that the microscopic droplets could cause problems for the fish larvae and some smaller animals and work its way up the food chain. even the fishermen here who want to get back to fishing as quick as possible say they're concerned about some of the safety of the fish in this area. so, a lot of people still talking about that. also the dispersants there were scientists, some universities on capitol hill yesterday saying that epa study that we talked about earlier this week about the dispersant not being more toxic than the oil, they're not sure the methodology was correct and they are not sure it mimicked real-world conditions. something we will be talking about, i'm s

have seen all the way from mats to mousse-like services, some flooding, some beneath the surface, sheens, tar balls -- many different forms of oil that t back to the dispersant use. it is complex. i do not have any data to support the sinking concept. as we look at this entire scenario, this is uncharted territory. i think we need science now. >> closing words -- iill let dr overton save what he wishes. but i think the notion that these are uncharted waters, we need to make sure we apply adequate signs tot, and really do not know yet what the long- term effects will be seen to be the things we can all agree with about where we stand now on the disperse and use. >> a glimmer of light in this darkness about >> see oil -- about deep sea -- there is a lot of oil entering the ocean in the last millions of years -- i have heard tales of the two exxon- valdez-sized oils in the deep ocean. the organisms evolve and live on it. there is so much an unknown that it is mindboggling, but we do know that the gulf is very active and alive with two exxon- sized spill's annually for the last millions of y

government report finds that 26% of the oil is still in the water onshore, but most of it is a light sheen on the ocean's surface. federal scientists believe that it is breaking down rapidly in both places. people on the gulf coast have been wondering if another shoe was going to drop, oil emerging to damage the shorelines. government calculations are withstanding scrutiny that that seems increasingly unlikely. the agency that produced the report will be giving more news on that today." massachusets, independent line. caller: first of all, i feel like sometimes people have an unrealistic standard of living today to begin with. unfortunately we had such a boom and people had so much going on with their income, now it is such a struggle to come back. i was born in 1955 and the people back then, is not enough for them. to, i work for a small shop in massachusetts. a hair salon. my owner -- i was not able to get to the other comment about owners making cutbacks, a he was not able to get any small business loans. he has always been a good provider. he has paid his rent on time, all of those thi

we will continue to be visibling labts that anything that comes onshore, the tar balls and the sheen is cleaned up. we will continue to work with the gulf coast communities and the people of the gulf to make sure that their communities are made whole, to make sure bp is held accountable. harry, this is the worst environmental disaster in the history of our country and we have launched a wide response, 7,000 vessels and 40,000 people. that made a difference. almost three-quarters of the oil was captured, cleaned or skimmed. >> one of the issues out there is this issue of dispersants. bp was encouraged not to use it. they've apparently continued to use it. do we have any idea how much was used and do we have any speculation about what its long-term effect might be? >> we will continue to monitor. we've been monitoring -- the dispersant decision was a difficult one. oil is very, very toxic and it's dangerous in the environment. a decision was made in conjunction with the environmental protection agency to use it. epa directed bp to use less, a 72% reduction in the use, but obviously we

there may be some sheen. but it should be significantly less than we saw at the height. we'll continue to make sure that is cleaned up as quickly as possible. >> very encouraging, as you're saying, what the scientists are three-quartere but for those people in the gulf, ms. browner, who are concerned about any oil being there, how confident are you about the current numbers and the accuracy of them? >> well, this is an initial assessment by our scientists in the government and outside the government. we think it's important to mak today. we do feel tis itant turning point. the fact that the oil is being contained. that the well and the cap is working. that the mud work that we can see of the relief well, coming into its final stags. and that the amount of oil that has already been collected, if you will, the vast majority's been collecte i tthisncou >> as you said, the vast majority has been captured which is fantas but do you have an idea of the amount that is still there in the gulf? >> well, the scientists are telling us about 25% was not captured or evaporated or tak

that accounts for sheen, other oil that has washed up on the beaches. or oil that had been removed from beaches, oil that has been by a degraded. i know everyone wants clarity about exactly where it goes. that remains our best estimate of what happened to the oil. there continues to be interest at the raid in which the oil is being by a degraded. there are microbes in the ocean that essentially eat the hydrocarbons. that is under way. as you know, as a scientist, there was concern early on that there were so many hydrocarbons that it would trigger a massive explosion of microbes, and that would lead to a dead zone, where all the microbes would use up the oxygen in the water. that is one reason why we and many of our economic partners have been consistently measuring dissolved oxygen as well as characterizing exactly where this undersea oil is, what concentrations, what impact it is having. it will be quite some time before we know the impact but it is safe to say the rate of degradation has not been so fast that it has triggered low oxygen. it is loweri
