Oil Spill Boom

The picture below is a set of boom used for oil spill in the Gulf Coast. Workers in Biloxi and Ocean Springs, Mississippi are ready to bring this boom as a containment. Boom is a temporary floating barrier used to contain an oil spill. It is used to reduce the possibility of polluting the shorelines and make the recovery easier. Booms are also used to concentrate oil in thicker layers so that skimmers, vacuums, and all other collection methods can be used more effectively. Our place is free from oil spill yet. Thanks to those hard working men and women. They put their life at risk upon working in the health hazard area near the oil spill disaster of Deepwater Horizon under BP.
