    1. On March 9, 2015, the USCG notified the NOAA SSC of a spill in the Delaware River resulting from a fueling operation. Fuel oil (Bunker C) was being transferred from the Barge DS306 to the MV WILD COSMOS. Operators overfilled the two port side tanks resulting in an estimated 400-500 gallons spilling out onto the deck and an estimated 100 gallons of product spilling into the Delaware River, Port of Wilmington, DE. Sector Delaware Bay contacted NOAA SSC requesting a spill trajectory.

Not for navigation. The name is read automatically from official navigational warnings; a common name can belong to more than one ship, and a message may describe work the vessel is doing (cable, survey) rather than something that happened to it. Mariners must use official NAVAREA broadcasts and their national MSI service.
