Oil spill cap progress tempts cautious optimism
Coast Guard officials said some vents would be closed as engineers worked on the cap, with Adm Thad Allen noting progress but cautioning against overoptimism. Obama warned it was too early to declare success as spill effects spread along the Gulf coast and residents described tar throughout Pensacola Beach and Grand Isle.

Gulf federal fishing area reopens after oil scare
New Orleans officials say more than 16,000 square miles of Gulf waters off the Florida coast have reopened after tests found no oil intrusion. The key reopenings include about 14,000 square miles west of the Florida Keys and Dry Tortugas, with a 2,275 square mile area off the Panhandle remaining cautiously cleared. Overall, closed waters now total over 78,000 square miles, about 32 percent of Gulf federal waters.
