Federal, state and local agencies are responding to an oil spill on the Nassau River, Fla., at the Nassau Terminal in Fernandina, Fla., after a 6,297-gross ton ship spilled an unknown amount of oil into the River. The Seaboard Rio Haina was loading containers on to its deck while it was adjusting its ballast to keep the vessel properly trimmed. One of the ballast tanks overflowed spilling water and an unknown amount of fuel oil on to the deck of the ship and into the river. The spill was not caused as a result of a puncture to its hull. Terminal personnel immediately placed boom around the ship and the terminal to attempt to contain the pollution. Personnel from Nassau Terminal notified the Coast Guard of the spill at 9 p.m.
