   1. The Coast Guard at MSO Anchorage received a report last evening (3/15) that a propane cylinder aboard a SeaLand vessel docked in Kodiak seemed to have a damaged valve and was perceptibly leaking. While enroute from Anchorage to Kodiak, the container vessel encountered huge seas which caused the 40' long x 7' diameter propane cylinder on the main deck to move within its steel framework skeleton. The damage was noted while off loading containers at the Kodiak SeaLand dock facility, which is located in Kodiak harbor a few miles south of the town of Kodiak and a couple miles north of the airport.

   1. The USCG at MSO Anchorage received a report the evening of March 15, 2000 that a propane cylinder aboard the M/V SeaLand Kodiak docked in Kodiak seemed to have a damaged valve and was leaking perceptibly. While en route from Anchorage to Kodiak, the container vessel encountered huge seas causing the 40-foot long, 7-foot diameter propane cylinder on the main deck to move within its steel framework skeleton. The damage was noted while off-loading containers at the Kodiak SeaLand dock, which is in Kodiak Harbor a few miles south of the town of Kodiak and north of the airport. The movement of the propane cylinder had broken welds in the framework and bent some I-beams putting the valve in jeopardy. A smell of mercaptan ( mixed with propane since it has a very offensive odor) could be detected close to the tank and an explosive meter, operated by the Kodiak Fire Department, gave a reading of [...]
