What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in Oxnard
Oxnard is split between inland tracts and waterfront homes at Mandalay Bay, Oxnard Shores and the harbor. Those two sets of chimneys age very differently, so a report states how close to the water the house stands before reading the rust on its cap. Fog and salt eat steel parts quickly here, so the report notes any stainless or copper that has lasted better. Soft soils on the Oxnard Plain shake hard in a quake. Ventura County APCD governs burning, not South Coast.
