   1. On August 25, 1986, the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Office, San Juan, Puerto Rico, was notified by the master of the M/V. Ibn Khallikan, which docked in San Juan Harbor, of a possible leak of phosphorus pentasulfide from the vessel. The master moved three 20-foot shipping containers, which had a rotten egg smell, from below decks to the top deck in an effort to vent any vapors. The shipping containers, believed to presently have only empty cylinders inside, had last held phosphorus pentasulfide. The cylinders had subsequently been washed with caustic soda and had been rendered inert before shipment. USCG district 7.
