Gulf Oil Spill Begins To Reach Land As BP Struggles To Contain Leak

GULF OF MEXICO. - MAY 09: Grassy marsh wetlands of St. Bernard Parish are seen as work continues to try to protect it from the massive oil spill on May 9, 2010 in Gulf of Mexico. The Deepwater Horizon oil rig operated by BP is leaking an estimated 5,000 barrels of oil a day into the Gulf and the slick has now reached nearby land. Efforts to contain the spill, including a 98-ton containment box to cap the leak, have done little to slow its flow. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images)
