Reports: Oil from Santa Barbara spill washed up in LA County

2015-06-23 03:37:09| Energy - Topix.net

Tar from the Santa Barbara oil spill washed up at least as far away as a Los Angeles County beach last month, according to test results released Monday. The findings confirmed what was suspected by many after globs of oil began swamping Southern California beaches in the weeks after a pipeline dumped up to 101,000 gallons of crude oil on the coast May 19. Goo that washed up on beaches east and south of Santa Barbara was sent to labs for "fingerprint" analysis to determine if it came from the Plains All American Pipeline spill or from oil that seeps naturally from the seabed.
