Ban Sought on Offshore Drilling in Santa Barbara Channel
The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors unanimously urged President Nixon and the Interior Department to cancel federal oil leases in submerged lands and asked the State Lands Commission to act within three miles. The resolution cites the 111 day spill that killed wildlife and damaged beaches, backed by over 200 supporters and several local groups. The measure was amended to include state tidelands operations, with officials warning the oil industry profits at the expense of property owners and local tourism.
