The Community of Gulf Breeze, Florida Distributes MOP Environmental Solutions Oil Sorbent to Its Waterfront Landowners

Marketwired
The community of Gulf Breeze, Florida has decided to take a
proactive approach in combating the impending Gulf Oil Spill on
track to hit their community. Gulf Breeze, located in Florida's
panhandle, has purchased from MOP Environmental Solutions, Inc.
(PINKSHEETS: MOPN) "MOP 201 bulk loose sorbent." MOP 201 bulk
sorbent is more than ten times as effective as booms for absorbing
oil. Gulf Breeze has purchased MOP 201 to distribute to waterfront
landowners to assist them in confronting the spill directly to
protect their property.
CEO Charles Diamond states, "We believe the carefully considered
wise choice of MOP bulk sorbent by the Gulf Breeze community will
serve as an example for all concerned with implementing the most
efficient cleanup measures," said Charles Diamond, MOP
Environmental President & CEO. "We are hearing from more and
more communities and the message is that they are not going to wait until the oil is on their beaches to take
action; and they are making their choice of
the far more effective approach of using MOP loose
sorbent."
CEO Diamond states: "It is notable that The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency - National Service Center for Environmental
Publications (NSCEP) recommends the priority for test of absorbents
first from available and low-cost natural absorbents." (on page 2
Section 1 of the Executive Summary). MOP falls into this category.
(NSCEP) (page 6 section 3) also states: "The natural sorbents are
generally more readily available than the synthetics," and on page
25 Section 6: also states, "One common factor among the sorbent
types is that organic sorbents tend to have a greater sorption and
retention capacity for organic rather than inorganic liquids."

It is also notable that in the "Use Of Sorbents for Spill
Response," published in 2009 and Commissioned by the Maritime
Affairs Directorate, and the French Navy, it has been determined
that bulk sorbents (MOP is in this category) is the choice for
Weathered Emulsified Crude Oil which is the specific application in
the Gulf. The study stated, "These products (bulk sorbents) can be
used in a wide variety of situations, on land and on water. Their
divided form gives them a large surface area which will come into
contact with the pollutant, promoting their impregnation even if
the pollutant forms a thin layer or scattered slicks, which may be
difficult to access." The entire guide can be read at,

Patented, MOP Maximum Oil Pickup is optimized as the
quintessential loose sorbent with all the desirable features,
performance, and safety that enables MOP to stand apart from all
other natural bulk fiber sorbents.
"One container of MOP sorbent can contain up to 75,000 gallons
of oil in 4 hours," stated Diamond. "It would take about 23,000
booms to get the same results. Furthermore, we continue to call for
recognition of the advantages of MOP bulk loose sorbent as the
product of choice for its comprehensive use throughout all oil
contaminated areas in the Gulf. Furthermore, we are recommending a
new process we are calling 'Boat Skimming.' Boat Skimming allows
boats to tow nets filled with MOP sorbent through the oil,
capturing far more oil than conventional skimmers in much less
time. The process is easily and inexpensively scalable by simply
adding more boats and nets to the process. In just one day,
hundreds of thousands of gallons of oil can be contained."

Brief Description of The MOP Technology: MOP Maximum Oil Pickup
is an aggressive oleophyllic and hydrophobic (oil attracting and
water repelling) sorbent made from recycled and fully biodegradable
materials, manufactured using small-scale hydroelectric green
energy. MOP's properties are such that it can effectively deal with
an oil spill the size of the Exxon Valdez, but is equally effective
at cleaning up the oil spill off a garage floor.
Regarding the Gulf Oil Spill; MOP Environmental's patented
product MOP Maximum Oil Pickup has the ability to capture and
contain the Gulf Oil Spill at its source and all locations out to
its furthest perimeter including the marshlands and beaches. Where
the oil has landed on beaches or land it will separate and remove
the oil from the soil, or sand on site quickly. MOP Environmental's
oil-only pickup product is called MOP Maximum Oil Pickup. MOP
floats, is all natural, it is safe to the environment including
birds, animals, and aquatic life. It is rapidly deployed at over
150 mph using MOP Environmental's MOP-Cannon and removed using
their MOP-Vac. MOP is applied above water or below water where it
floats up and locks in oil, completely neutralizing all potential
harmful effects of the spilled oil. It is the only known oil
recovery method that will work under all weather conditions. The
oil can be retrieved for re-use where the resulting profit is
greater than the expense of cleanup.
MOP Environmental Solutions, Inc. manufactures and distributes
MOP® Maximum Oil
Pickup.

revolutionary, 100% Recyclable, new absorbent material picks up to
