Between 300 and 700 barrels of oil per day have been spewing from a site [...] since 2004, when an oil-production platform owned by Taylor Energy sank in a mudslide triggered by Hurricane Ivan. Many of the wells have not been capped, and federal officials estimate that the spill could continue through this century. [...] The company has argued that there’s no evidence to prove any of the wells are leaking.
