Large Release Of Methane Off Los Angeles Coast – Unusual concentrations detected by haz-mat crews – Gas may be from shift in tectonic plates
By ENENews
CBS Los Angeles, March 3, 2013 (Emphasis Added): Authorities say a foul odor that spurred calls to fire departments throughout the city on Sunday is possibly the result of the large release of methane in the Santa Monica Bay. Santa Monica Fire said in a department statement that they believe the strong odor was caused by a naturally occurring methane leak below the ocean floor. “This morning there was a large release of natural ocean floor methane released in the Santa Monica Bay,” the statement said. [...] Brian Humphrey, a spokesman for the Los Angeles City Fire Department, said the odor was noted inland from the Santa Monica Bay.
KPCC (h/t Anonymous tip), March 3, 2013: Santa Monica fire haz-mat crews detected unusual concentrations of odorless methane gas in the air that they believed to be coming from either a patch of pungent algae or a sulfurous gas-laced methane bubble, said a dispatcher. That may night be the case, however. Sam Atwood, a spokesman for the Air Quality Management District (AQMD), said his agency has not confirmed the Santa Monica Fire Department’s theory.
KTLA, March 4, 2013: Officials say a foul stench in Santa Monica over was probably caused by a large release of methane in the ocean. [...] A Santa Monica fire hazmat team took readings off the coast near San Vicente Blvd., and found methane in the water. [...] Authorities said that recent changes in water temperature may have caused plankton and algae beds to bloom, releasing methane just below the surface. The gas also might have been produced by a geologic event, such as a shift in tectonic plates.
KABC, March 3, 2013: Santa Monica hazmat crews found unusual concentrations of odorless methane gas in the air. Officials believe either a pocket of stinky algae, or a bubble of methane laced with sulfurous gas, surfaced in the ocean.

The ocean farted in our general direction.
LMAO! Love it
LOFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What the heck do the EXPERTS mean that METHANE is odorless? Open your sewer clean out sometime and take a sniff… Methane stinks to high heaven if there is enough of it released…
They used canaries in the coal mine because they were not able to smell it.
Methane is odorless. So is gasoline. You don’t have to be an expert to know this. Methane and gasoline have chemicals added to them so you can smell them. Sulfur is what stinks like rotten eggs. Your farts smell because of sulfur not methane.
Ever taken a dump in an outhouse? It releases Methane and it stinks like its host.
Been near garbage dumps where the Methane gets either release or burnt,it stinks like its host that produces it.Once you can determine what formed the frozen Methane below you might find out what it should smell like.
Since it contains likely hydrogen Sulfide it will smell like rotten eggs.
Although I agree that pure Methane itself is odorless.
Gasoline is a different issue as it is chemically cooked oil,Bunker Oil smells,not like Gasoline.
So really its all semantics ….I can smell Gasoline and so can everyone else.
To get back to the Article yes the Methane release can smell if it contains impurities.
This is not a very good sign. Santa Monica, coincidentally where some of the most expensive real estate in the country resides and is highly populated, will have a significant financial hit if this does strike.
All OVER the WESTSIDE of Manhattan yesterday as well……I thought my neighbors has gone ‘Edith Massey’ EGG mad…….
All those Very Expensive places to own and rent on the Los Angeles coast will be continually hit with this toxic soup along with the VERY high radiation levels coming from Japan..
Thanks GE you brought NOT the good things to LIFE as you own NBC and so much of the MIC and censor the most important stories of the century…This is a HUGE story, and earth changes will get worse, either by the NATO troops all over the USA inside FEMA camps paid for by the printing of that money machine and YOUR American TAX DOLLARS, but also by natural earth changes as Planet X, Nibiru as it gets closer to our planet and makes the wobble worse and electro magenetic shifts oh, should we put HARP in this toxic mess.. Amen!
Hail Mary, where is Joe Montana now that we need him….Go 49ers!

Tectonic plate theory is theory. They have yet to even postulate a mechanism by which the theorized conveyor belt operates.
Tides, water comes in and water goes out. How does water goes against the spin of that which it sits upon? Take away all the water and the earth is all land. The spinning rotation of the land in one direction and how can the water atop that land go against the spin?

Still not convinced that HAARP can heat up an area and like Sonar and Xrays penetrate water and the earth below?
Well just like a diathermy Machine that heats the tissue inside your body to heal an injury,Haarp can do that using millions more watts of Power.Heat the ocean Floor and below ,you heat Methan that is in a frozen state. Would be O.K. to heat the Oil for recovery,it would likely alleviate fracking.
They are playing with fire,just like kids only these Idiots are Adult scientists that experiment ,not knowing what side effects it creates.Similar to our medical idiots….Try this drug… Oh lets try that one. We are coming to an end very soon. They know it too.
The Zionists achieved what they were not able to do in 1940.
You Americans made it possible ……..think about it.
