Debate over where to prioritize oil spill cleanup
At the 17th Annual Tanker Conference in San Diego, Reece W. Norton of Clean Seas Inc. argued for offshore skimming to stop spills at sea before reaching shores, while Capt. Walter H. Putman of the state Fish and Game warned that oil will reach beaches regardless. Norton described Clean Seas plans in the Santa Barbara Channel and a broader open sea focus, as industry talks by Forrest M. Smith of Clean Bay, Inc., emphasized new skimmers and booms. Putman challenged the feasibility of current skimmers under rough seas and called for realistic beach cleanup plans, joking about future beach parties during a Regional Response Team activation.
