A unified command consisting of the Coast Guard, Louisiana Oil Spill Coordinator's Office, and Time Energy LLC schedules an in-situ burn to mitigate the impact of an oil discharge near Cox Bay, Louisiana, August 16, 2019. When conducted properly, in situ burning significantly reduces the amount of oil on the water and minimizes the adverse effect of the oil on the environment.
