   Barge B-35; Hudson River, NY.
   Hudson River, NY.
   1. On 28 April 2005 at approximately 1530 the USCG Activities NY was notified of a release of gasoline from the barge B-35. The barge was moored at the Dynergy facility in Roseton, NY. It reported slight sheen around it and believed the damage was to the #1 and #2 port tanks (each containing 7,500 barrels of gasoline). ACTNY requested NOAA support for weather and trajectory information. The barge initially had 75,145 bbls of gasoline. Using the figures provided by the RP the amount lost would be 683 bbls or 28,686 gallons. The amount of product and water combined is 89,823 bbls which means that during the several times they lightered they took on an additional 7,803 bbls of water (the barges total capacity is only 82,020 bbls). The barge was single hulled and they believed it sustained an impact with the bottom near Diamond Reef (NE of buoy #56) while heading up river. Weather at time of [...]

   Barge energy 5501; new haven, ct
   North Atlantic Ocean

   Barge Energy 5501; New Haven, CT.
   New Haven, CT.
   1. The USCG Sector LIS was notified by the Motiva facility that the barge Energy 5501 was leaking product at its pier in New Haven, CT harbor. The barge initially was boomed. The product was 93-octane gasoline and an estimated 100 barrels was contained within the boom. The NOAA SSC was notified at 0700 and requested to provide trajectory analysis, weather, and tides and current information. Also discussed were response options, including releasing the oil from the containment boom, the use of firefighting foam to inhibit any potential explosive hazard, and the use of fire hoses to spray along the shoreline to keep the gasoline away and to break up the slick. The New Have Fire Department was on scene and acting as the Incident Commander. They did not have any way to apply foam to the spill. The boom was opened about 0800 on an ebb tide.
   2. THREAT: OIL. COMMODITY: GASOLINE. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 168000 GALLONS.
