Oil spill would be disaster for town
10:00am Thursday 9th February 2012 in Your letters
Weymouth is for the most part a tourist town, the beach and Jurassic Coast being the main attractions.
However, when you look out in the bay there a huge ships refuelling day and night which is surely risking a leak or spill.
Yet yards away you have an enclosed commercial harbour with entrances that could be sealed in the event of a leak or accident.
Otherwise, it’s one incident and Weymouth and the coast would be blighted with black oil sludge for many years.
