Oil spill from two barges off Galveston Bay offshore
A 50,000 gallon oil slick from a sunken barge in Galveston Bay moved away from shore as U S Coast Guard and salvage crews worked to contain and pump out fuel. A second damaged barge remained afloat with booms around both barges. The third barge carrying 20,000 barrels of fuel was not damaged and was moved upstream. The Shinoussa tanker, damaged in the collision, kept at Bolivar Roads with a double hull preventing leakage. Salvage contractor T T Marine is coordinating cleanup. Local officials noted shallow water hindered booms placement and potential risk to nearby estuary wildlife.
