Oil Spill and Foul Smells

Florida oil spill attorney is monitoring reports of foul smells in the Tampa Bay, Florida area. Sources at the Tampa Tribune report, "'It's like paint thinner. And it kind of leaves a bitter taste in your mouth,' said [someone], who was shopping at a Gulf to Bay Boulevard store." Another coastal shopper noted, "It smells like oil fuel. Really like a diesel fuel  kind of thing. . ."

Pinellas County Environmental officials with the Pinellas County Air Quality Division of the Environmental Management, told TBO.com,  "that could be the case, but then again, perhaps not. . . . "
