   1. On June 15, 1995, the F/V Miss Doreen capsized, for reasons unknown, in Portage Bay on the north side of Kupreanof Island in southeast Alaska. Two adults were rescued, but a ten-year old girl was trapped in the vessel when it sank. The USCG MSO Juneau sent personnel to the scene to investigate. Later that day, divers recovered the body of the young girl and confirmed that 260 gallons of diesel had been released from the fuel tanks. A sheen one to two miles long extended into Frederick Sound where it naturally dispersed. Weather throughout the incident was overcast with light drizzle and light winds. USCG district 17. Keyword: none.
   2. COMMODITY: DIESEL. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL RELEASE: 260 GALLONS.
