Peruvian authorities move quickly to contain 1,500 gallons of fuel that spilled from a U.S. tanker in Pisco.

The Peruvian city of Pisco is in the country’s Ica Region. The oil spill happened some 38 kilometers from the region’s Paracas National Reserve, home to a rich concentration of sea and bird life.
