Sandy Hook Oil Spill today

[shresearchdude]

USCG was due to have a press conference today at 1130. They were investigating all possible sources-that were upwind. They knew about the Leonardo Marina. The investigation may have also involved samples that could identify the type and source of the spill.
Experts on site estimated with previous experience that it could have been anywhere from 500-2500 gallon spill of light diesel. Not a heavy oil spill.

Although there may have been a fish or two that were found the cause of mortality may not be identified. As of 10 am there didn't appear to be any major negative results from the spill.
Of course this is not official information and only my opinion based on some info that I've been made aware of.

All the usual agencies were involved.
I heard that the clam beds were closed but no info about why or the parameters of what needed to be done for them to open back up.
