Oil spill fouls San Francisco Bay killing hundreds of birds
A valve opening sent 100000 gallons of reclaimed motor oil into the San Francisco Bay estuary. At least 50 waterbirds died, hundreds more were taken to a cleaning station as Coast Guard and local crews fought to contain a slick more than a mile long. Authorities questioned Port Petroleum Co. officials, while cleanup crews used booms and oil-sucking vacuums, with two to four days expected for full remediation.
