Gulf Coast fisheries shut by oil spill
(CNN) – Today is day 36 of the oil spill in the Gulf. Twenty percent of the fisheries in the region have now been shut down. The Commerce Department is freeing up federal help by declaring a fisheries disaster. 150 miles of Gulf coast shoreline are now impacted by the spill. Birds and fish are dying, and jobs are vanishing. And as our Rob Marciano reports, it's getting very difficult for the locals to just sit back and watch what's happening.
