Board inquiry set on tankers spill in San Francisco Bay collision
A Marine Board of Investigation will hear a San Francisco Bay tanker collision that created a major oil slick. Coast Guard officials said a formal date is pending after protests from the Sierra Club.

Nichols Jr. serving on the board. California owned both vessels involved, the Arizona Standard commanded by Harry H. Parnell and the Oregon Standard commanded by Morris E. English.
