Still A Lot Of Work To Do In Gulf?

We may be near a turning point in the attempt to permanently stop oil from leaking into the Gulf.

On Wednesday, BP reported that mud forced down the well overnight was pushing the crude back down to its source for the first time since the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded off Louisiana on April 20.

Meanwhile, a report released earlier in the day said 74 percent of about 4.9 million barrels released since the April 20 blowout at BP's Deepwater Horizon rig can be accounted for: 25 percent was burned, skimmed or directly recovered from the wellhead, 25 percent naturally evaporated or dissolved and 24 percent was dispersed, either naturally or with chemicals

Considering shares of Clean Harbor surged as BP’s troubles in the Gulf mounted, how big's the market for clean harbors if the harbors are clean?
