Lee VCB director discusses oil spill
To the editor:
As the tourism industry watches the results of an oil spill off the coast of Louisiana with bated breath, we are all hoping for quick containment with little impact to our fragile ecosystems.
The situation is being monitored by the federal and state governments. For current information, you can access: www.d8externalaffairs.com/go/site/2931/
We are in contact with Visit Florida, Lee County Department of Natural Resources, Lee County Emergency Management and other local municipalities in reference to the situation. Also, we are getting updates from our international and domestic offices to gauge the coverage in the media.
If you hear from anyone you do business with regarding this topic, please pass along the information.
Thank you,
Tamara Pigott
Lee VCB, Executive Director
