Sector LA/LB requests a hypothetical "what if" trajectory in the event it hits the rocks and discharges in the next two hours. 2. THREAT: OIL. COMMODITY: DIESEL. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 800 GALLONS. 3. POSITION 33.423N 118.505W. NOAA INCIDENTNEWS 10054: https://incidentnews.noaa.gov/incident/10054
