A pipeline rupture leaked thousands of gallons of oil off Huntington Beach, CA (Credit: Richard Brahm/US Coast Guard)

A ruptured undersea oil pipeline off the coast of Huntington Beach, CA, has leaked thousands of gallons of oil into the Pacific Ocean, threatening fish and wildlife and causing numerous beach closures. The spill, caused by a 13-inch tear in a pipeline that transports crude oil from an offshore drilling platform to a pump station in Long Beach, CA, was first reported by locals on October 1, 2021. Experts are still trying to determine the amount of oil leaked before the pipeline was shut down on October 3, 2021. The estimates range anywhere from 25,000 gallons to 136,000 gallons.

                      They weren't transporting oil, they were bringing oil up from the ocean through big pipes and one of the pipes had a hole in it, so crude oil came out of the pipes directly into the ocean.
