the coast guard captain of the port of new orleans. you have to call up the guy. what this means is that oil-soaked birds on islands surrounded by boom, you can't get close enough to take that picture. shots on oil with booms, 65 feet away, pictures of booms that haven't been collected as they should, you can't get close enough to see that. that is out there. you only know that if you get close to it and now you can't without permission. violators could face a fine of $40,000 and class d felony charges. what's even more extraordinary, the coast guard tried to make the exclusion zone 300 feet before scaling it back to 65 feet. here is how admiral allen defends it. >> that's not unusual at all for the coast guard to establish safety or security zones around any number of facilities or activities for public safety or for the safety of the equipment itself. we would do this for marine events, fireworks demonstrations, cruise ships going in and out of port. >> this is the exact same logic
