Mexico to Sue BP Over Gulf Oil Spill

The Mexican government reportedly plans to sue BP and the United States over the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Environment Minister Juan Elvira told the state news agency Notimex that the government will sue for damages and costs of monitoring the spill.

Elvira said Mexico has spent $35 million on monitoring the spill. No oil has been found in Mexican waters, he added.

BP began a “static kill” operation on the well Tuesday. The procedure, in which heavy drilling mud is pumped into the well, appeared to be working on Wednesday. The next step is drilling relief wells. So far, an estimated 4.9 million barrels of oil have spewed into the Gulf of Mexico, making it the largest oil spill in marine waters.
