Mentions the dye used. I have wondered for days why they don't pump dye through to find out where cracks are. That is standard practice in some areas...

But why did they not use commercial dyes? It says they used salts used to make bathwater milky white. Why not bright red or pink dye made for some sort of purpose? What are they thinking? How can you tell milky white from regular ocean foam sometimes? At least as well as red dye. Who is in charge? Who did they consult?

Question every single thing they do because it probably needs it. Do not assume they have consulted with anybody, they have experts of their own on hand etc. Do not assume that they will act quickly even to just position supplies should they need them. mg
