Costa Concordia Salvage: New Timeline

The stricken cruise ship will spend another winter partially submerged close off the coast of Giglio, Italy. The consortium hired to re-float and remove the 114,500-ton ship presented this month a new timeline to the Osservatorio, the entity supervising the wreck salvage operations. Originally scheduled for completion by January 2013, the removal plan has been delayed until next spring. The presentation confirmed the previously presented and shared phases of the plan.
