Second Port of Los Angeles oil spill in a month prompts cleanup
U.S. Coast Guard officials on Thursday, March 31, 2016 were investigating and cleaning up the second oil spill to occur this month in Los Angeles Harbor. The spill occurred at the Vopak Terminal near Wilmington when an oily-water mixture coming from a dockside holding tank was spotted at about 11 a.m., according to a Coast Guard news release. “Most of it is on the pier and what did enter the water was an oily water mixture,” said U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer 1st Class Sondra-Kay Kneen. Investigators from the Coast Guard were on the scene along with oil spill response teams from the National Response Corp., Ocean Blue and Patriot Environmental. Crews were using oil skimmers and absorbent pads as well as a containment boom that was deployed around the tanker ship TULA to minimize the spread of pollutants.
