BP Case Shifts to Pollution Fines That May Top $17 Billion

White shrimp sit over ice at a seafood market where fresh Gulf Coast seafood is sold daily in Westwego, Louisiana, U.S., on Monday, March 5, 2012. BP Plc may face as much as $17.6 billion in civil pollution fines and possibly billions of dollars more in criminal penalties as its settlement with businesses and individuals harmed by the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill shifts the focus to government claims.
