L.A. Harbor Oil Smog
I lived at berth 200X, and then Fellows Marina between Matson Shipping and Dow Chemical on Termonal Island for over twenty years on boats (ending couple decades ago as MacDonnell Douglass, another grandfathered polluter) gave up to Boeing.The oil companies wait for heavy fog to burn their most toxic waste products at night. While I lived at Berth 200X the city of Long Beach drilled into a pool of oil over a mile below the harbor that was said to contain more oil than the shallower oil that had been pumped for decades. The thirty two megawatt steam plant burns unrefined crude oil (as of when I lived fhere) as well as all the unsorted street collected trash from the City of Long Beach.
