   1. The SSC was notified by USCG at approx. 1600LT 11Dec07, that a crew boat (M/V Lady Marie) hit a well the previous night in Main Pass 44, Breton Sound, LA. The vessel is still afloat and attached to the well platform. Vessel reports 7,000 gals fuel and 100 gal lube oil on board. No oil pollution reported from vessel or well at this time. USCG requests trajectory for potential release.

   Lost Drum, Methanol; South Pass, Mississippi Delta, LA.
   South Pass, Mississippi Delta, LA.
   1. A 55 gal. drum containing approx. 15 gal. of Methanol was blown off a platform on 21 December due to high winds (and not being secured). The location was given as 28° 58' 12" N 089° 14' 43" W. This position places the incident in Louisiana off of the Mississippi Delta. While the threat was considered minor, the USCG request a trajectory to enhance the formulation of their Notice to Mariners and to assess if the barrel would wash ashore allowing the RP an opportunity to recover the lost HAZMAT.
   2. THREAT: CHEMICAL. COMMODITY: METHANOL DRUM. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 15 GALLONS.
