Corexit 9527 * as shown on a July, 2000 or later list- almost no info given CAS: 60617-06-3
* 6-14-92 only ingredient given is 2-butoxyethanol *
Note Corexit 9580 comments from 8-1-89: www.valdezlink.com/inipol/corexit.htm
Ethylene Oxide is the only ingredient given
* Though not used other than experimentally during Exxon Valdez Oil Spill cleanup, *
did it still have 2-butoxyethanol in it, too?
Corexit 9554 1993 version *
Can you believe this? Exxon has switched to the most dangerous ingredient of Inipol EAP 22 & don't seem to be giving full information on it. Surely Exxon knows ingredients are not allowed to be proprietary after 1997 court ruling regarding such for pesticides! *
So, the plan is to dump poison into our Alaska waters...hoping Exxon can come up with a money maker? Who cares about the people? Who cares about the marine life!

*Alyeska is still using Corexit;
however, they are not able to utilize it like they want to for lack of the necessary permits.
