The sheen in the Gulf of Mexico from the Deepwater Horizon is an unknown substance at this point. What joy.

...an unidentified substance inconsistent with oil was seen emitting from several areas of the rig wreckage...(click here)

Would all parties involved kindly submit a complete list of materials from the Deepwater Horizon to the USA EPA and Woodshole Oceanographic Institute.

Thank you.

Of course, the State of Louisiana should already have a list of all materials that an offshore rig could contribute to the marine environment, but, doesn't.

If the State of Louisiana had such a list they should have come forward with it as soon as the incident occurred. 

Why?

For the health and safety of the people of the Coast Guard, any surviving employees, and the public. 

That's why.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement(BOEMRE) needs to place a regulation stating all ocean rigs operating on lease permits from the USA have to provide a MATERIALS LIST of any and all materials that have gone into the construction and/or operation of such rigs. They need to do that ASAP. The lists have to be a matter of public record as should or are their applications for same lease.
