PHOTOS: Oil Spill in Huntington Beach Threatens Coastline, Wildlife

Joel B. Pollak 4 Oct 2021

Crews in Huntington Beach are scrambling to contain the damage after an offshore pipeline leaked over 126,000 of crude oil into the ocean, creating a slick that is washing up along the shore on one of Orange County’s most famous beaches.

The exact cause of the spill is unknown. Locals had already noticed a smell of oil by Friday. Hope that the oil slick could be kept off the beaches was dashed on Saturday night, when the beaches were closed and a local air show was canceled.

The spill was caused by a breach connected to the Elly oil rig and stretched from the Huntington Beach Pier down to Newport Beach, an area popular with surfers and sunbathers.

Kind of takes me back to the sixties when there was natural oil seepage washing up on the SoCal beaches.

Slightly surprised that there are any off shore platforms off the coast of CA.....

There still was in the mid 1980s, and probably still is. It's probably been going on for centuries or millennia.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

I guess they are now saying the pipeline may have been damaged by an anchor. Maybe from people off shore watching the air show? Seems it would have to be a pretty big vessel for anchor large enough to punch a hole, I hope they are inspecting the entire pipeline now.

More likely eco-terrorists to get the platforms banned.
