Drakes Bay Oyster Company ruins
I returned to Drakes Estero after the Drakes Bay Oyster Company was shut down. And this is what I noticed.
The ruins of structures containing chemicals literally falling apart in place.
Dead oysters and shells litter the grounds.
Numerous vehicles on site and some appeared to be not working or not recently used.
Houses on the site, some appeared abandoned.
People still living on the site.(but we don't want people homeless, right?)
This is what I did not notice. Marine vomit in the water.
I will also attach photos of various other pollutants in the Point Reyes area.

"A new scientific report released today [Oct. 2013] reveals that the controversial Drakes Bay Oyster Company’s production of millions of non-native Japanese oysters is perpetuating “alarming” amounts of the highly aggressive and invasive “marine vomit” that threatens the ecological health of Drakes Estero marine wilderness area."
