Oil Spotters Sought For Brevard Beaches
Brevard Agencies Seek Volunteers To Monitor Shorelines

BREVARD, Fla. -- Volunteers are needed to monitor Brevard County's shoreline for oil from the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Keep Brevard Beautiful and the Brevard County Emergency Management Office are managing the volunteers.

Each volunteer will be assigned a half-mile section of the beach to monitor on a daily basis. Sections will be assigned nearest to the volunteer's residence, Local 6 News partner Florida Today reported.

Anyone interested in volunteering or being a site captain to coordinate other volunteers should e-mail [e-mail]. Please include name, address, city, zip code, age, contact numbers and availability.

Use drones, satellites, have BP pay for people to watch for oil - after all they pay a lot to find oil all the time.

Not against people volunteering or helping though, just a shame they have to.

but have to ask for volunteers to clean up after perhaps the worst environmental disaster in our history
