Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico unlikely to affect Marco Island

I have received many questions regarding the status of Marco Island in relation to the oil spill in the Gulf.

According to the US Coast Gard Unified Command and local emergency management officials that are monitoring the spill, Marco Island is unlikely to be severely affected by the BP oil spill.

The island is rated "as a low threat for near and future oil impact" by state and federal personnel.
