effort . I have a four year bachelor's degree from Henderson State
University in Business Administration, and excellent management,
communication, and networking skills. Attached is a copy of my

If the inner diameter of the oil pipe is
approximately 22 inches, insert a 'freeze plug' with
an outer diameter
of 21 inches as far into the opening as possible and
the actuate the pressure exertion bolt to seal the
leak.
I would suggest using 3 rubber seals with stainless
steel compression plates at the front, rear, and
between
each seal with a massive stainless steel threaded
rod (as used in bridge construction) as the pressure
exertion bolt and a stainless nut welded to the rear
compression plate.
A solid metal freeze plug could be forced into the
opening behind the 'mechanical freeze plugs' for
added security.
The rubber components could be several inches thick
to provide a better seal. The steel divider plates
should
be thick enough to withstand the pressure
exerted during compression.
Good luck and thank you for your efforts to protect
the region.

Looking forward to hearing a response, thanx.
Molten lead in the form of a
capsule ejected or dropped from a distance (space- air) lead
will glob as soon as it hits the water and possibly hit the leak
or stop the leaking pipe. Maybe inject lead as a molten
substance that will conglomerate>? LEAD or liquid metals
Take 20 barges full of millions of tons
of gravel and surround the main spill area, using high
pressure pump lines off each barge pump all the gravel down
to the pipe where the oil is coming out and from all sides
completely bury the leak under a mountain of gravel. It's
that easy!
Bob Hasty
Keep it simple...but big. Take a very
large open barge, flip it over. Attach fittings to the
bottom (now the top), attach hoses (like they tried) to the
barge, one to pump warm surface water in to prevent freezing
and a hose out (for oil). Tow it to the area with rigs
capable of the job, lower the barge to the bottom to cover
the well, let the air out of barge to sink, and pump water
in and remove oil to a tanker ship. The weight of the barge
should hold it in place or it could be partially filled with
concrete. Some barges are equipped with long I-beams to hold
them in place while working (if needed). They have ships
large enough to carry these barges also, I believe there is
one in Tampa. The Mississippi has hundreds of barges. I
believe the biggest problem here is that BP does not want to
plug the well due to the fact that it costs so much to
redrill. Thanks, Jim 727-539-0457 Also if you know anyone
looking for a foreman, I was a mechanic for 30 years, I am
50 now. I am good at telling people how to fix machines and
most oil leaks. I live on the Gulf coast west of Tampa and I
have a 37 foot sailboat need volunteer crew).

As far
as I can see, BP nor the Fed had a contingency plan for
something like this happening, and unfortunately, I don't
see them stopping the leak anytime soon. However, I think a
fine nylon sieve or net towed behind boats would be a
logical way to clear part of the plume that is floating
between water layers. Just like a whale sieves plankton from
the waters, this net could sieve at least the worst of the
goo from the mid-waters of the Gulf. I am a part-time table
games dealer of the Gulf Coast and our business has been hit
pretty hard by bad press. Is there any way you guys can help
me get an environmental-type job? I have a strong background
in biological sciences, plus I've never stopped studying
sciences.

Hi,
If I had 50' of water frontage with emulsified oil lapping at
the edge as
shown, I'd use a shop vac type vacuum cleaner to remove floating
oil as
quickly as possible and transfer it to storage drums/buckets or?
For later
treatment or disposal.
If this could be done, 3000 units with 3000-6000 workers could
clean 34
miles of frontage in 10 days.
I think smaller vacuum units can be used to effectively remove
(particularly
floating and emulsified) oil from marshes and wetlands.
I've done this in the bilge of my boat. It's not fun, but it
beats the hell
out of anything els anyone's got going.
Options could be: a number of 5 gallon shop vac type units with
a place to
transfer 2-3 gallons of oil/water mix. Could be done from a flat
boat or by
wading works with boat and generator support.
Gas powered units could also work.
Larger vacuums with longer hoses could be mounted on larger
boats with
storage onboard or on separate floating containers.
Something has to be done fast. Near as I can tell, no one is
doing anything.

Dear Sir,
I am a former US Army Deep Sea
Salvage Diver UDT. I have worked underwater under the most
extreme conditions possible down to 297 feet on air in a Mark 5
Deep Sea Diving dress. I understand the enormous difficulties
involved in working underwater. I am also the President of
International Wastewater Solutions Corporation with patents and
experience in Bio-remediation, Myco-remediation and
phyto0remediation of petroleum and other contaminants. I have
consulted on BP related projects in Egypt, and conducted
petroleum remediation projects for PEMEX in Mexico. Currently, I
have a project in the Ecuadorian Amazon involving extensive
Texaco oil pollution and ongoing Petro Ecuador pipeline spills.
My background in Wastewater spills spans a period of over 35
years. I believe this combination of experiences is pertinent
to what I would propose and should be considered seriously.
While remediation of the oil is my
primary business, stopping the spill and capturing the free
product are the two first orders of business. I suggest that
this is possible using existing wastewater technology.
In wastewater we use a “sewer
rodding machine” to enter a sewer pipe to remove stoppages. With
this technology we are able to extend a quarter to three eights
inch diameter, rigid spring steel rod a great distance into a
sewer pipe and exert a great deal of force on this rod at a
great distance. Rods come in infinite lengths due to their
ability to be added together in sections. From the video it is
apparent that submersibles are able to get close to the
ruptures.
I believe that it is imperative
that the pipe be sealed at a great distance below the surface of
the sea floor due to the enormous forces at that depth. If this
is not done the oil is only going to find alternate preferential
paths to the surface that will be difficult to stop. Assuming
the well is drilled 18 to 25 thousand feet into the bottom this
is even more important to make a deep penetrating seal.
I propose that it is entirely
feasible to insert a small diameter sewer rod into the spewing
vent against the flow of petroleum and slide it into the inside
of the pipe to a great distance. This is possible due to its
small diameter and rigid construction
The end of the rod should have a
pulley with a cable attached so that as the rod is inserted it
drags a cable with it. Once the rod has been inserted to the
desired depth it is possible to then begin to pull a tapered
plug with the cable or unfold a tucker patch or other
obstruction. It is also possible to pull a well designed
explosive charge to collapse the pipe at great depth. It is
important not to plug up the top as the real problems are the
enormous forces and sealing the top will prevent a real repair
such as I am proposing.
If you wish to have more
information about how to proceed feel free to contact me. Once
you have the hole filled you need to remove free product. My
company has developed several products that are useful in sheen
control and in bioremediation using IOS-500 bacteria and other
products. BP has experience using IOS-500 in Egypt on their
drilling mud spoils. They contract with our associate company
International Organic Solutions. Their contact is President
Bruce Rifkin.
