Incident Report Description

The panhandle continues to be impacted with tar balls and froth in the tide pools along the FL panhandle.
The oil has a deeper rust hue to it and most of it is highly compacted with shell material as well.
Hopefully clean up crews will continue to clean up this newer oil and all the buried oil along the Florida coastline.
Credibility: UP  DOWN  4
