BP settlement settles Gulf spill case with 4.5 billion payout
BP agreed to pay 4.5 billion in fines and settlements after a long spill case. The deal directs about 2.4 billion to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and 1.3 billion in fines while the SEC and NAS funding totals reach hundreds of millions. The agreement, subject to judge approval, marks a historic criminal resolution with further civil penalties possible, as investigators pursue continued probes into BP's handling of the disaster. Residents and families affected express mixed emotions over indictments and closures while BP shares rose slightly on the NYSE before broader costs loom.
