BP claims to be meeting in the U.S. to see how to accelerate claim payments to those affected in the U.S. It appears BP has only processed 50% of the claims made by those who have been damaged by the oil spill. The cut off riser and subsequent cap appears to be pumping more oil into the gulf now. Too date, 55,000,000 gallons of oil have been pumped into the gulf destroying marshes, beaches, and killing birds and sea life.

The damage from this disaster will be felt for 5-10 years minimum.
