dc.description.abstract	The tar collected in New Pass, Sarasota Bay on June 30, 1982 was found to be representative of material recently (<1 month) discharged from oil tankers cleaning oily residual from oil storage tanks. Two types of tar were observed, one exhibiting greater weathering (older) than the other. Both tar samples contained crude oil with the older sample showing a high percentage of a refined, residual petroleum distillate mixed in.	en_US
