Details are sketchy at this time, but as we deal with an oil spill that threatens to be worse than the Exxon Valdez:
The U.S. Coast Guard said Friday it was responding to another oil drilling rig accident near Morgan City, Louisiana.
Drill, baby, drill.
Update: From a Coast Guard press release:
The MIDU has a 20,000-gallon diesel fuel capacity, and while there is no current estimate on how much fuel was on board at the time of the incident, on-scene Coast Guard pollution investigators have determined that the rig is not leaking fuel at this time. As a precaution, 500 feet of containment boom has been deployed around the rig, with an additional 500 feet arriving to provide a secondary string within the canal.
This sounds like good news ... right now.
