The authorities filed a police complaint Saturday in response to the large amount of oil that has washed ashore since Friday in Nakhon Si Thammarat’s Hua Sai district.
Maitree Saeng-ariyanan, the head of Marine and Coastal Resources Office 4, lodged the complaint at Hua Sai Police Station in bid to find the cause of the incident, so those responsible can be caught and punished.
Over the past two days oil and tar balls washed onto a long stretch of Hua Sai Beach in Tambon Koh Phetch and Tambon Na Saton.
Although the oil has been diluted by the seawater and waves carried much of it back out to sea, many tar balls and oil stains remained.
Military Circle 41 chief Maj-General Theenachat Jinda-ngern will coordinate the cleanup effort with local officials and the public, plus dispatch soldiers to help.
