An oil flow spanning nearly 34 square kilometers was observed near the coast of California on Sunday. If the authorities estimated the number of liters passed at 480,000, they have not yet been able to determine the origin of this accident.
Katrina Foley, a local official, nevertheless explained that it could be a leak from an oil pipeline about 8 kilometers from the coast. Initial analyzes of the hydrocarbon showed that it was “post-production crude oil”, according to this manager. This oil spill will have “irreversible consequences on the environment”, she denounced while many dead fish and birds have already been found on the coast.
