New Evidence Released in Relation to California Oil Spill

By Samuel Moser

Investigators are one step closer to finding the cause of the oil spill off the coast of Orange County, California on Tuesday, according to The LA Times.

While the news of the spill has been out since Saturday, the cause is still undetermined. However, investigators now have been able to find evidence that it was potentially caused by a wayward anchor, according to The LA Times.


There was an anonymous source who claims the pipeline was dragged roughly 150 feet by the anchor. It is possible that the captain of the ship was unaware of the pipeline, according to Good Word News.


At this point, despite not knowing the actual cause, investigators tend to think that the cause was in relation to negligence either by a ship captain or by the oil company, according to Good Word News. 


Another possibility is that the captain of a ship was tempted to drop his anchor in an unauthorized zone because of the congestion of ships that were present before the pipeline burst, according to The LA Times.
