On February 13, 2009, USCG Sector Puerto Rico notified ERD that a 600-foot general cargo vessel, the M/V Dunlin Arrow, was hard aground on a shoal 50 miles off the north shore of the Dominican Republic. The vessel is carrying 264,000 gallons of diesel and the cargo is reported as paper. The USCG initially reported oil in the water and then reported that all tanks were breached. ERD is standing by to provide trajectory and weather support. At this time the vessel is not thought to be a threat to U.S. waters.

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.
