   1. On the morning of January 22, 1996, the USCG MSO in Portland was notified by Group North Bend that an unknown quantity of black oil had spilled from a pier in Newport, Oregon. The pier was owned by Port of Newport and used to load logs onto deep draft ships. A USCG overflight observed black oil in the water in the immediate vicinity of the pier, patches of sheen in the main channel, and oiled rip rap to the west and east of the pier. The source of the oil was not known at that time, but was suspected to be a barge incorporated into the pier structure. USCG district 13. Keyword: high-pressure hot-water washing.
