As has been noted in earlier similar events, the fluid movement appears to be linked to observations of trees falling into the sinkhole, release of trapped debris from the sinkhole bottom and increased odor from hydrocarbons released to surface. CB&I and Itasca Group analysts have advised that, while the activity appears to represent no additional significant threat to the general area, operations directly on the sinkhole be suspended until subsurface activity slows again.
The Advocate: Sinkhole work suspended after underground tremors detected [...] Response operations on an 8.6-acre sinkhole in Assumption Parish were halted Tuesday after seismic monitors noted an increase in the kind of underground tremors linked with past burps and edge collapses in the yawning slurry hole, state regulators said. [...] Over the past 24 hours, seismic monitors have been picking up an increase in underground fluid movement near the failed Texas Brine Co. LLC cavern, officials said. [...]
