"One Year After Spill, Some Signs of Life Emerge in the Gulf

"Some of Louisiana's coastal counties, called parishes, are collecting more sales-tax revenue, when they had expected double-digit declines. The $20 billion fund set up by BP PLC to compensate people for losses from the company's runaway oil well has paid out more than $3.8 billion, though thousands of long-term claims remain unresolved.

New Orleans, already booming from post-Katrina rebuilding, benefited from an influx of spill-related business. Traffic at the airport last summer was the strongest since the 2005 hurricane and office space is at a premium, in part because of lawyers setting up shop for spill litigation, says Michael Hecht, president of Greater New Orleans Inc., a regional economic-development group."
