Lapindo hot mud to be offloaded to the sea

Desperate on the ongoing hot mudflow from Lapindo Brantas Inc's Banjar-Panji well, the frustrated deputy regent of Sidoarjo Syaiful Illah said over the weekend that Madura Strait will likely be the final shelter of the hot mudflow chanelled through Porong River.

Tempointeraktif.com reported this morning that mudflow has been jumped from 5,000 cubic meter per day to 50,000 cubic meter per day. Lapindo build dams to absorb the mudflow, but with the current rate of mudflow, the existing dams would only be able to accommodate the flow until the end of July. What a mess!

A mess now but wait until the raiy season. If mud is diverted to the river it may silt up and cause flooding
