The Coast Guard says it didn't investigate reports of a Southern California oil spill for nearly 12 hours because it didn't have enough corroborating evidence. The spill sent up to 126,000 gallons of oil into the ocean off Huntington Beach. http://apne.ws/dTSyNKi

The oil leak may have been caused by a ship's anchor that "hooked the pipeline, causing a partial tear,” officials say. The gash was over a foot (30 centimeters) wide, allowing tens of thousands of gallons of oil to spill into the waters off California. http://apne.ws/50dQSzV

I've seen reports speculating that "an anchor" was involved. Name something else capable of dragging a pipeline?

So what ship was in that area shortly before the break? And has the company that owns it called in the PR team and the insurance company yet?
