Earlier this month, local restaurant in Oakland, Scott's Seafood Restaurant, was fined a whopping 841,000 dollars. The reason for the fine is due to their shoreline deck, being an environmental hazard. The shoreline is said to be too close and exceed the maximum capacity of people, which is a state environmental violation. The shoreline has been an ongoing problem the past. The shoreline is also said to be harmful due to the waste created and later to affect the waters and fish. The fine has been reduced to 395.000 dollars.
Along the California coast, there are hundreds of restaurants along the coast. Many of these restaurants create waste from either the food or customers not correctly disposing of trash. This eventually affects the wildlife in the water and making the water unsanitary. Trash left in the water eventually moves with the waves and dispersing it even more throughout the ocean.
