The trash on TX beaches comes from ships. BTW S Padre are the best beaches I've seen. Comparable to HA.

If you can find the ship name or company I wonder if some states will fine the company. When I lived on the beach of SC I noticed the trash seemed to have a lot of Orential labels. Some tar there too, but most was definately #5 fuel oil. If you have ever worked with Bunker 5 fuel oil it is like road tar till heated up over 200 degrees. I often wonder since there are several navy ports not far if some of it was from ship to ship refueling.

You want to believe what you want to believe.

The oil spills are real. I didn't make those up.

Okay. How do you know the trash is from the ships, not the platforms?
And are LA, MS, ALA and FLA having the same problems?
