Oil is still washing up on beaches, and officials are opening beaches and have discontinued future clean-ups and trainings. I'm writing Zuna Surf tomorrow to see if they are still holding grassroots clean-ups. For now, the people still volunteering are now cleaning up without proper safety gear and without proper oil collecting hair mats. ALL yellow bins that were placed on Ocean Beach for oil disposal have been removed, and now toxic bags must be called in (I'll try to get the # for that ASAP).

I will try to find a source for more hair mats, but I know they are expensive...

The city official for the Dept. of Fish and Game stated on Nov. 12th that official clean-up efforts would continue until the oil spill was cleaned up. I'm calling him tomorrow to ask why they have been stopped when there is still oil in many places.

Baykeeper.org is welcoming any documented photos of oil still washing up. They need your help to document oil sightings in your area so that we can get contractors and volunteers out to clean up every drop of oil. Please send photos with date, time, and place info.
