What industries were wiped out after the exxon valdez oil spill?

None: Both the oil industry and fishing industry still exist and these were the most immediately affected. Tourism died out for awhile in Prince William Sound but has come back. I think parts of the fishing industry were affected, however. For example, the almost dead Seattle based-Alaska bound fishing industry seemed to take its final gasp following the collision with Bligh Reef in PWS. As bad as the spill was it did not even come close to causing the damage many initially thought it would.What industries were wiped out after the exxon valdez oil spill?
Actually, there exists marine species in the sound that have never fully recovered to their pre-spill populations even after almost 20 years. Report Abuse
