State officials have contained an oil sheen spotted Friday in Talbert Channel near Huntington Beach. No oil was observed in Talbert Marsh and no oiled wildlife was seen.
Officials pointed to favorable ocean current, which pulled the plumes of oil south without large amounts of petroleum hitting the shores.
Beaches as far south as San Diego County saw tar balls but escaped large inundations of oil. That was in marked contrast to the much larger 1990 American Trader oil spill, which left beaches, jetties and wetlands covered in crude, fouling 15 miles of beach in Orange County. A Department of Fish and Wildlife spokesperson could not be reached for further information on Friday’s sheen.
