At 09:00 am I called NRC and spoke to Keith Wather, and he confirmed the information on the spill report. I asked Keith that If I have questions about the specific location of the spill, would he be able to call the reported party and get the information. Keith told me the caller is Anonymous and he will not be able to do that. I explained to Keith that I am not asking for the caller phone number , and I just need their help to locate the sheet; Keith told me he can give me only the Coast Guard information and I can follow with them. At 09:08 am I called Cal OES and I spoke to Kristi and she told me that the report came from NRC , and she does not have additional information. I asked her if there was a spill report on 05/01/17 in regards to this spill, and she looked and she could not find any other reports beside this current report.

I told Tim I will be on site around 1:00pm today to inspect. At 01:00pm I arrived on site and met with Tim. Tim and I inspected the docks. Sheen was observed on docks A,C, D, E and F. The first 4 slips for all these docks showed a film of sheen. There was no Petroleum odor. At 1:30pm Haley and Rayan Rodriguez with department of Fish and Wildlife arrived on site. We continued the inspection, and we were not able to locate the source. We thought the sheen is vegetable oil, and it may came from the restaurant, but the Haley did the separation test for Oily water and they conclude it is not vegetable oil. We inspected the gust dock next to the restaurant and did not have any sheen. We interviewed the citizens who owned the boat, but did not know the source of it, but it was indicated that the sheen was traveling 5 days ago. We continued the drive and walk around the marina , but could not locate the source. At 03:10pm we all agreed to leave the site, and if there is any update, Tim will notify us.
