   1. On December 29, 1991, the master of the tug Jolene Rose notified the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Captain of the Port New York (COTPNY) that the tank barge Lindsey Frank had touched bottom off Magdelen Island in the Hudson River at Tivoli Reach, but was still underway. A sheen was noted. The barge's capacity was 21,000 barrels of gasoline in 14 cargo tanks. The winds were southeast at 14 knots, visibility 2 nautical miles in rain and fog, and the tide was ebbing. The barge remained trim and continued upriver to its destination at the Atlantic Refineries docks in Rensselaer, New York. The barge master sounded tanks and reported tank #1 had taken on approximately four inches of water, but all other tanks appeared intact. USCG district 1. Keyword: evaporation.
   2. COMMODITY: GASOLINE. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 9000 GALLONS.
