Wind and flood damage seem to be the predominant damage in Baja storms....an oil spill was something that never occurred to me...LancairDriver - 9-7-2019 at 12:07 PM
Oil spills would certainly pose problems with any natural disaster such as Dorian. The infrastructure oil requires such as pumping stations, storage
facility’s, and networks of pipes are extremely vulnerable. The results of the Japanese Tsunami of several years ago are nowhere near over. Plenty
of man made infrastructure around the world just waiting for the next disaster.motoged - 9-7-2019 at 12:23 PM
I don't know if southern Baja has similar oil storage systems, but think I saw them in the Pichilingue area some years ago....sure would mess up a
lot of coastline...
I am not on an eco rant perspective, but appreciate such vulnerability in infrastructures.chuckie - 9-7-2019 at 02:47 PM
Good Point...Once again, what can WE do to mitigate this risk? Or ask be done? If memory serves, there is a fiber optics backbone which carries
most of the bandwidth the length of Baja and waterlines as well..SFandH - 9-7-2019 at 04:30 PM
Just imagine chit from 9 million pigs floating around your town.
