| Description | In the early morning hours of Wednesday, February 28, 2007, the bulk cargo ship SONGA HUA was anchored in Elliot Bay, Seattle, Washington. The tank barge SHAUNA KAY, accompanied by the tug ALYSSA ANN, was moored with its port side to the SONGA HUA’s port side. The SHAUNA KAY was delivering intermediate fuel oil. At about 0316 the transfer was stopped when the ship’s Second Engineer sounded the emergency stop signal using an air horn. The ship’s Chief Engineer called the tankerman aboard the SHAUNA KAY via radio and told him to stand by. After his repeated attempts to contact the SONGA HUA’s crew went unanswered, the tankerman climbed a portable ladder to reach the accommodation ladder of the ship and then climbed to the ship’s deck. There he found the ship’s crew cleaning oil from the SONGA HUA’s starboard side deck and learned that oil spilled over the side to state waters. Approximately 93 gallons of intermediate fuel oil spilled to the water. | ||||||
