APTA has developed an "Information Page" containing a wealth of information regarding the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill relative to the Alligator Point Communities.

Simply click on the "Deepwater Horizon Information Page for the Alligator Point Communities" icon located on our home page and then select the items you wish to open.

Please reference this page for up-to-date information on the oil spill. Many sites are carrying daily press releases that you can readily access by using our site to locate the information you need.

Thank you to all of those that took part in the "Pre-Cleanup". Paul Parker, Dini Dolan and Steve Fling as coordinators state that there was a good turn out and that the beaches were pretty clean.

A note to gulf front property owners: Officials have stated that it is much easier to clean an area from an oil spill if the beach area is clean. Even though volunteers walked the beach to pick up debris, you may wish to survey your property for debris that should be picked-up.

The Alligator Point Communities have not been impacted by the oil spill that remains far west from our area, but it is very prudent to be aware of the situation and to be prepared.
