Environment Crews mopping up oil spill in Texas' Galveston Bay
Cleanup efforts have begun after a barge carrying nearly a million gallons of thick, sticky oil collided with a ship in Galveston Bay.
Coast Guard Petty Officer Andy Kendrick said Sunday morning that skimmers are recovering the oil that spilled in Saturday's collision and a boom is in place to protect environmentally sensitive areas.
Kendrick said the remaining oil is being moved off of the damaged barge.
