Incident Report Description

Tarballs were along Blue Mountain Beach area, just west of Big Redfish Lake, one of the 15 rare coastal dune lakes in Walton County Florida. Often, where there have been areas of oil impact, the sand appears to be contaminated too. This has been a huge concern. Tonight, there was good news because hundreds of tiny crab were flourishing along this stretch of beach.
