Icebreaking Postponed in Saginaw Bay

April 4, 2014

The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) postponed an icebreaking operation originally scheduled to begin Sunday morning in the vicinity of the Saginaw Bay Entrance Channel.

Based on the extent of ice coverage in the region, the crew of Coast Guard Cutter Hollyhock, a 225-foot seagoing buoy tender homeported in Port Huron, Mich., has been reassigned to break ice in another area.

The USCG said it will announce when the operation in Saginaw Bay is rescheduled.
