Ports/harbors were all closed to all marine traffic for several days after the incident. Beaches were closed for all activates. That has since been lifted in most areas, but the fishery closures are still in effect "for some time"(whatever that means...). I understand the reasoning behind the closure, but that doesn't make it suck any less!
