Independent Water Samples Again Contradict EPA Statements; Explodes When Tested For Oil, Most Likely Due To Methane Or Corexit

Despite the massive amount of oil in the Gulf of Mexico the EPA claims it has not found any areas where oil or the toxic dispersant Corexit has exceeded threshold levels.
INFORMATION FROM LATEST DATA: EPA surface water samples collected on June 19, July 7 & 9 2010, along the Gulf Coast found no compounds exceeding chronic water benchmarks. These results include data for compounds found in dispersants in samples from June 19.
Surface water results collected May 21 through July 6, 2010 along the coast of Louisiana were measured for two of the chemicals associated with dispersants (2-Butoxyethanol and 2-Ethylhexyl Alcohol) but did not detect either one.
That isn’t reassuring since we already have one instance of independent tests contradicting EPA samples by finding high levels of the chemicals in Corexit in Louisiana waters.
Independent scientists have also confirmed a massive dead zone has been created off the Alabama coast from the BP Oil Spill yet the EPA still claims no findings of oil above threshold levels.
With the amount of the neurotoxin pesticide Corexit sprayed by BP now approaching 2 million gallons it makes the EPA claim that it has not found any Corexit in the water even more alarming.
The latest round of independent testing of Gulf Coast waters comes from a local Alabama news station WKRG 5.
Just like before the independent water samples once again contradicts the information that the EPA is giving to the public.
The tests found astoundingly high levels of oil in both the sand and water where kids were playing along the Alabama coast even though the water appeared to be clear to the naked eye.
[Another] sample was a spot in Orange Beach, where again, we found kids playing. and we found our highest content of oil and petroleum. 221 parts per million. …
When Naman added an organic solvent to separate the oil from the water [collected at Dauphin Island Marina, near some boom], just like he did with all the other samples, this sample exploded right in his lab. “It was almost instantaneous. Actually, maybe one second. that’s just weird.” The result surprised even our chemist.
“We think it most likely happened, either due to the presence of methanol, or methane gas, or the presence of the dispersant, Corexit.”
MOBILE, Alabama – More than a week has passed since Alabama’s beaches have seen significant oil, and despite warnings along the Gulf Coast, some swimmers are taking their chances.
News Five collected samples of water and sand from Orange Beach, Gulf Shores, Katrina Key and Dauphin Island. To our eyes, the samples appeared normal, until we took them to a local lab to be tested.
Water and sand along Alabama’s coast should contain no more than five parts per million of oil or petroleum, according to Bob Naman, an analytical chemist. But, the samples we collected tested much higher.
From 16 ppm to 221 ppm, our results are concerning. Even more disturbing is what happened to a sample collected from the Dauphin Island Marina near oil containment boom.

I sense…
The parents of those children shot in this video should be contacted.
1… For news 5 to get written permission to film a minor and put that child in any kind of visual broadcast.
2… Guided to contact a laywer and sue "news 5" for publicizing their child. Probably without permission from the parents.
3… And sue BP for having exposed their child to the rates spoken in this video…
