Huntington Beach Oil Spill Disaster and Inadequate Monitoring Complaint

October 14, 2021

Amplify Energy Corporation (AEC), Beta Operating Company (BOC), and San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company (SPBPC) are the companies in charge of the Elly Oil Platform and San Pedro Bay Pipeline that lie off the Orange County, California coastline. The complaint for this class action alleges that systems providing warnings of oil spills were inadequate or ignored. According to the complaint, the slow recognition or response “turned what could have been a painful, but manageable event, into [a] marine environmental crisis.”
