Santa Barbara oil seepage widens in channel spill
Coast oil leak in the Santa Barbara Channel grows with an estimated 38,000 to 41,000 gallons released from a ruptured undersea pipeline. Solanas of the U.S. Geological Survey and Fritz Springman of Union Oil report two slicks totaling about 22 miles along the coast in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. Five seabirds were found oiled near Ventura and taken for cleaning as the Coast Guard notes the slicks are breaking up, with one mile by ten miles and another mile by eight miles remaining.
