EOC Late Night update

Received at 10:08 pm

DEP has reported plume of oil 12 miles off the Perdido Pass. Vessels are enroute to further assess the situation. One option may be to try to burn some of the plume. If they decide to burn off some of the oil, you may see a glow in the gulf along the horizon.

Air crews will attempt to gather more information at first light.
