More, much more, needs to be done right away to get that oil out of the water, and a number of intelligent methods have come along in the past few years that are not getting much attention. I work with a Canadian company called UESS that uses a polymer-encapsulation method for oil removal. You won't read about it in the paper, but it shows results: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWjclziL-D4&feature=player_embedded
