You do no it’s from an 80 tonne spill,

Lol the dangerous good ferry ships more oil to the island then that on a daily bases.

To put it in perspective a tanker truck with trailer carry’s 40 tones

So your right that has and will happen here

It has a similar story as to no one stepping up to take resposibility for the clean up costs and it has sat on the reefs since Feb 5.
