What do you expect when you're building on a tar Pitt, Brea means tar right?

[@ColumbiaB]

I’m a little surprised that no one was sufficiently on the ball to point out that what is seeping to the surface at the “tar pits” is not true tar, but asphalt. Of course, that makes it about the least problematic thing to be bubbling up on an asphalt-paved street. Obviously, the city roads department will want to clean up the excess, but it’s not a contaminant that will erode or degrade the pavement.

[@seanwhatshisname1831]

It's part of the "Salt Lake Oil Field". It's under most of West L.A. and Hollywood. Also, it's actually asphalt and not tar, but that's just semantics to most people. There are also big fields in Huntington Beach and Brea California. I remember when I was a kid, there were hundreds of pumps all pumping it out everywhere in Southern California. I also remember playing with a cousin up near Calabasas and sliding into a brook that I thought was water that was actually oil naturally coming up. Imagine your kid coming home covered in oil, lol!
