Good fishing around those platforms
Quick, send federal aid money and blame white supremacy!
They need to paint the oil white if they are going to blame it on white racism!
break out the dispersants.
Why should it interfere with an airshow?
Buy the cheapest peanut butter you can find and use it to remove beach tar from your feet. Makes a nice condiment on Triscuits too
Because the California authorities are chicken shtt.
Beaches of Santa Barbara featured tar long before the oil spill. Kerosene was the solvent of choice provided in the dorm shower rooms. Never thought to try peanut butter.
Some investors in Amplify Energy (Houston, 230 employees): Black Rock, Vanguard, Fidelity.
I occasionally found tar on Newport Beach and Huntington Beach in the 1950's.
Baby oil does a decent job too. We learned that at Ellwood beach by the Coal Point Oil Preserve.
“Beaches of Santa Barbara featured tar long before the oil spill.”
I used to work on the platforms in the Santa Barbara Channel. On the boat ride out to the rigs, you could see little blobs of oil bubble to the surface and pop, leaving a little slick on the surface. The beaches in that area are full of little tar patches on the beach. Platform Emmy has been there a long time. I’m not surprised at the news.
I was a student at Brooks Inst in Santa B 1973. We used PB for the tar. Crunchy worked great as it had it's own built in scrubbing agent.;-)
Oops! Platform Elly.
Early California missionaries reported seeing tar, from natural seepage, on the beaches.
Geez, just spray a fine mist of Dawn detergent over the spill and get on with life, or just get on with life. We used to have oil seeping up causing slicks and leaving tar balls and patches all the time on the OC beaches when I was a kid. I don’t remember any big hoopla or panic back then and nature used to clean up just fine. Now a pipeline break or tanker wrecking, that’s a different animal altogether.

I read somewhere that more oil is deposited on world beaches naturally every year than is spilled worldwide.
No kidding, as a kid my dad used white gas to get the tar off our feet, lots of oil seeps off shore, coastal indians used it to line things with.. dumb ass environment woketard want to stop pumping oil.
