La Sinkhole Situation Just Got Much Worse! Update: Dangerous Hydrogen Sulfide Gas Detected, Seismic Activity Picking UP
Guys, things just got a lot worse at the sinkhole down here.

This is less than 50% of the article:

Officials: Math doesn’t work; end to evacuation is unclear

The math isn’t adding up in Assumption Parish, and some parish officials are worried about what might be happening underground near a Bayou Corne area sinkhole.

State Department of Natural Resources scientists said they think a subterranean Texas Brine Co. salt cavern failed, allowing earth to partially fill the 2,250-foot-long vault and ultimately cause the sinkhole to form about 200 feet to the northwest of the cavern’s top.

Parish officials say the volume of the brine-filled sinkhole is much smaller than the amount of displaced earth now in the cavern, prompting worries about other unknown subterranean voids or gaps left in the area by the shifted sediments that could lead to further disturbance at the surface.

Boudreaux and Waguespack said it is their worry that the possible voids or gaps underground left by the 2.7 million cubic yards of earth that shifted could lead to sinkholes appearing in other locations.

As of Nov 1, 2012 the sinkhole has grown to 30,000 ft and the cavern floor has risen 52'.

Officials: Now up to 30,000 sq. feet swallowed by giant Louisiana sinkhole in latest collapse — Almost 20 times bigger than original estimate — “It’s a concern” (PHOTO & VIDEO)

Press Release: Floor is rising in salt cavern below giant sinkhole — Over 50 feet since late September

Watch: Man ignites tap water 4 miles from Louisiana sinkhole — It started bubbling after giant hole formed (VIDEO)

"God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787

I don't know, El Q, but I will try to find out. There is so little credible info coming out down here. The local news on WAFB will do a 20 or 30 second spot about it a couple of times a week.

Back in August the DEQ requested a worse case scenario from Crosstex.

Here's an article from August.

I can't find anything more up to date. Back in August they claimed it should get no bigger than 700 ft and it is probably that or more by now. They haven't given any updated dimensions lately. But, they know it is much worse than they said at first.

Thanks for the quick response on the update. its a little hard to do a worst case scenario when they still dont know the source. This is just not good.
