Volunteers and staff of the International Bird Rescue use a toothbrush and soap to clean oil off a brown pelican in the San Pedro area of Los Angeles, California on May 22, 2015, who was rescued after being covered in oil from the Refugio Oil Spill. Oil-covered pelicans, dead lobsters and other marine life have been recovered from the area, where a nine-mile (14-kilometer) long oil spill has closed two beaches normally crowded with tourists, officials said. Plains All American Pipeline made the pledge as it said nearly 8,000 gallons of oil had been scooped up, out of some 21,000 gallons believed to have flooded into the ocean near Santa Barbara, northwest of Los Angeles.
