HUGE ENVIRONMENTAL TOXIC DISASTER
PIRATES COVE and AVILA BEACH
Beware Swimmers & Hikers!
The hill separating POPULAR Pirates Cove and Avila Beach, is
covered with cancer causing poisons. It is so toxic it is fenced off,
with warning signs about if you enter, you could get cancer!
There are NO warning signs that heavy rains and flooding,
have washed these deadly toxins easily into the ocean and on
the beaches. The ground of the poisons Is mostly dirt and mud,
and slopes downward, toward both popular beaches. How

The toxins can kill many thousands of fish and Poison the many seals and
sea lions and turtles! The poison in the water can last for several days,
before it drifts off. If the wind is blowing toward Shell Beach and Pismo,
'the toxins can infect the ocean there too. Southerly winds will push the
toxic current, in the opposite direction, into San Luis Say where there are
swimmers and stand-up board paddlers, and wading fishermen.
When I went to the County building department responsible for the
environment, the director was shocked at my report. He said he did not
even' knew about Phis over - years disaster hill! He drew :up the large
screen map on the wall, and l pointed out the `location:
