Local seafood restaurants have been said to be affected because of the oil spill that happened on the 30th April 2010. More than 400 species are in danger because of the spill. Fishermen hence cannot fish and this is affecting the seafood restaurants as they are not getting food from them.
Seafood prices have increased in the local market as their is a shortage of seafood due to the oil spill. Many seafood restaurants are importing seafood from difeerent states which is costing them alot of money. The government should quickly take action and clean up the water as restaurants are losing out on food.
If there is a shortage of food in the restaurants then no client will hence come. This affects tourism also. The seafood industry should test all their seafoods and make it clear to the public about how fresh and safe their foods are because it is troubling alot of customers and tourists as they keep asking if the food is safe.
Bp should pay partly of the import fees of the seafood as they are managing the oil crisis. The food and drug administration should test all food stuff coming into the market so as to stop any illness that is caused because of the oil.
