    1. On February 16, 1989, the tanker UNICORN DEREK ran aground on the western side of Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands, approximately 600 yards from the entrance to the Spanish Town Yacht Harbor. The tanker carried 1,500 barrels of diesel, 2,500 barrels of gasoline, 2,260 barrels of kerosene, and 21 tons of bunker C fuel. The initial report to the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Office (MSO), San Juan, Puerto Rico, indicated that a small quantity of gas and diesel were leaking into the water from two tanks. A tug and barge were brought in to lighter the vessel before refloating her. A small sheen was seen around the vessel but it did not appear to persist and did not impact any shoreline. Divers found a slight amount of damage to the hull in the area of the number 4 tank. The sheens diminished after the gas in the tank was shifted to an undamaged tank. USCG district 7.

Five large oil storage tanks were destroyed and several severely damaged at the Hess Oil Virgin Islands Corporation (HOVIC) power plant in Port Alucroix, St Croix. Of the 10,000 barrels released, approximately 9,000 barrels were contained within earthen berms on the facility's grounds. Coast Guard personnel of the Marine Safety Office (MSO) San Juan participated in an overflight of the area on September 21. The overflight was conducted to assess damages to two affected facilities. Members of the USCG Atlantic Strike Team and the Federal On-Scene Coordinator arrived on-scene September 22 to inspect the damaged storage tanks. Approximately 1,000 barrels of heavy crude oil were in HOVIC's main tanker harbor. HOVIC employees had already begun countermeasures to contain the oil. [...]

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.
