You have to sink a well into the area you are paying access for.
I live down here near the Gulf.
Many down here, not just the environmentalists, demanded the oil rigs not be visible from the beaches.
Most oil rugs in the Gulf of Mexico are south of Louisiana, they don't have beaches. They have marshes. There are beaches along Mississippi's coast, about 28-32 miles of them. Alabama is marshes and Mobile Bay. Their beaches are out on the islands south of that bay. Florida has both beaches and marshes along the south coast of the Florida Panhandle.
From time to time, I have looked at news about spills, and in this case an uncapped gusher, and the skimmers are pathetic in size and capabilities. You may as well try to pick the oil up with a one person row boat. The new one in the Gulf is huge. It isn't made in the U.S.
