The Louisiana Sinkhole is still expanding. It has now grown by another 500 ft and is still expanding. A 25 ft section of a Natural Gas Pipeline (no product in it) has risen to the surface also.

The stories on this situation can be found by Googling "Louisiana Sinkhole".

The real question is whether my proprty will become ocean front or swampland front property first or should that swampland be described as Sinkhole frontage property???

It is now thought that the salt dome has collapsed. If true, the sinkhole should rapidly expand shortly.

Per the Houston Chronicle (AP report) today, the sinkhole now covers a 5.5 acre area! It is growing rapidly!
