I've often heard of the rich diving around PV but have also heard that it's highly polluted due to Long Beach Harbor, the chemical/Oil industry and funky runoff. Didn't the Gov./Corporations dump a bunch of chemicals (I think it was DDT) off PV and cover it with a bunch of sand and called it safe? This is what I've always heard so I've stayed away from what is supposed to be a wonderland of diving fun. Do I have reason to be concerned or am I just missing out on a great spot?
