The oil spill off the Orange County coast is having a devastating impact on birds, fish, and other wildlife. Many beaches are closed and there is a ban on fishing or collecting any shellfish from Huntington Beach to Dana Point.
Please do not try to catch any oiled animals. Report wildlife concerns to the Oiled Wildlife Care Network (Open in new window) at 877-823-6926.
We know many people want to assist with oil spill response efforts. If you are interested in volunteering, please visit the Southern California Spill Response (Open in new window) website to register.
