Steel plate problems delay Valdez repairs
Exxon Valdez arrival in San Diego Harbor is delayed as bottom hull plates sag and slip, raising draft by 20 feet and preventing entry to the drydock for a $25 million repair. Officials report an oil slick near the vessel, with tests to identify the source underway. Exxon dispatches engineers to plan raising damaged plates while the tanker remains afloat.

L Onikov calls for new blood and glasnost within party ranks, noting limited openness in internal ballots and urging reforms under perestroika. A Western diplomat sees this as a push to speed Congress reforms and purge opponents.
