D II vessel sanctioned for pollution hazard in British Columbia"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p><strong>The Canadian Coast Guard issued a $13,500 fine to the owner of the vessel Muriel D II<\/strong>, a 40-foot wooden fishing vessel in Matchlee Bay near Gold River, British Columbia.\nThe fine is based on violation of the Shipwrecked, Abandoned or Dangerous Vessels Act, as the vessel was causing a significant environmental hazard.\nThe Muriel D II, which partially sank in the bay, was moored without authorization to a Fisheries and Oceans Canada salmon enrichment net.\nThis structure, intended to support salmon farming, was inadequate to support the weight of the sunken vessel. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/the-freighter-verity-sank-after-collision\/\"

the Muriel D II boat<\/h2>\n\n<p>In addition, the vessel was scheduled to be moved for use as a hatchery by the Conuma Creek Salmon Hatchery, increasing the risk of pollution in the nearby estuary if the vessel were to sink completely.\nThe Canadian Coast Guard had previously ordered the owner to remove the vessel and take measures to prevent pollution of the marine environment by March 18, 2024.\nHowever, failure to comply with these instructions led to the imposition of the fine and the order to remove the Muriel D II from the marine environment.  <\/p>\n\n<p>In this context,

their vessels may cause.\nThis includes cleanup, repairs and any corrective action taken by the Canadian Coast Guard.\nThe fine is considered an extreme measure, used only when all other options have been exhausted.\nOwners have 30 days to pay the fine or apply for a review hearing before the Transport Appeal Tribunal of Canada.   <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Follow us on social networks and don&#8217;t
