Authorities have detected a 2.5-mile-long oil sheen off the coast of Southern California but say it doesn’t appear to be a crude spill and are investigating the cause.
This photo provided by the U.S. Coast Guard shows an oil sheen observed offshore of Huntington Beach, Calif. on Friday, March 8, 2024. Authorities have detected a 2.5-mile long oil sheen off the coast of Southern California. They said it doesn't appear to be a crude spill and are investigating the cause.
U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Richard Brahm said authorities spotted the sheen after daybreak Friday about 1.5 miles offshore, and it later shifted about another mile further from the coast. He said there were no reports of spills or leaks from oil platforms operating offshore and the sheen does not appear to be growing, which leads authorities to suspect it was a one-time discharge or natural seepage of oil in the ocean, which is common.
