Major oil spill washes up on Californian beaches – The National
One of the largest oil spills in recent southern Californian history fouled popular beaches and killed wildlife, as crews rushed on Sunday to contain the crude before it spread further into protected wetlands.
At least 573,000 litres of oil spilled into the waters off Orange County, the city of Huntington Beach said.
“The spill has significantly affected Huntington Beach, with substantial ecological impacts occurring at the beach and at the Huntington Beach Wetlands,” the city said.
