NPR has a discussion based on review of video setting it at 11,000 barrels a day or 610,000 gals a day.

A URI oceanographer says it won't hit our beaches. The gulf will be a dead zone for who knows how long , what degree has the fish in Prince William Sound recovered 30 years later?

This should definitely put a dent in BP's bottom line.
They should charge them tghe full price of the cleanup, as well as for the loss of livelyhood for ANY fisherman that loses money due to the gulf becoming a "dead zone".
I had heard/read a cap of around 74 million as a fine, but Isay screw the cap and charge them the whole ball of wax (or oil in this case).
