Oceana: Protect California’s coast from the dangers of offshore drilling.

We know the devastation these toxic oil spill disasters bring to our oceans, wildlife, and coastal communities. That’s why California has not issued new offshore drilling leases in state waters for more than 55 years. But right now, the rich biodiversity that lives off our coast is at risk as the Trump administration’s efforts to expand offshore drilling intensify. Our state legislators are currently considering a bill (AB 1448) that would further protect California’s coast. If passed, the bill would: Prevent the use of existing infrastructure to service new offshore drilling; Tighten a gap in the state’s ban on offshore oil drilling in state waters. Act HERE.
