>> you know, just by the way, those shots and where you are, you can see the rough surf that chad was talking about, the booms that have been put out there to contain the oil, it will affect them and make it tougher because of the rough surf that's why they can't continue the fires to burn off the oil. these waves, that's going to complicate things a little bit. >> reporter: well, you know, ali, but they're still moving ahead. there's another boom deployment right here to the east of where i'm standing, and we were down there taking a look at the booms, they're still deploying them. there's group of 20. the environmental groups bring out big trucks to make sure they continue to deploy the booms and get ready. so, you still see activity here and the fishermen themselves i was talking to two that were launching the boat right over here, and they're saying, you know, it's choppy out here, you can see the water, as you were mentioning, ali, even though it's choppy, i want to get out there, because i know what may change in the short future. >> yeah. all right, richard, we'll keep chinging ing in checking in with you. richard lui, dauphin island,
