Still unvanished

Maybe the magic microbes are pooping.
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi environmental authorities say oil debris found this week on state barrier islands is believed to be from the BP's disastrous 2010 spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and contractors for the oil giant are involved in the cleanup.

Officials believe high winds and seasonal low tides uncovered the material.

Mississippi's Department of Environmental Quality said Friday that 10 pounds of tar balls were found this week on West Ship Island and between 200 and 300 pounds were found on Horn Island.
