    • Refugio Wildlife Overflight Sea Otter Survey - 28May15

    Metadata Updated: March 16, 2024

    On May 19, 2015, a pipeline owned ruptured in Santa Barbara County, California, near Refugio State Beach. An estimated 21,000 gallons of the oil flowed overland from the break site into the Pacific Ocean and spread across the marine environment. NOAA and our state and federal partners are investigating these impacts and will determine the amount of restoration needed to return the environment to the condition it was in before the spill and to compensate the public for environmental degradation from the time of the spill until recovery.

    This layer represents sea otter observations in the Refugio Beach Oil Spill area on May 28th, 2015.
