At 0600 ADT on June 9, Sector Anchorage notified the Alaskan SSC that the 175', 495 gross tons, M/V Monterrey landing craft had grounded adjacent to Puffin Island located in Chiniak Bay, Kodiak, Alaska, at 0100, June 9.

The vessel was immediately boomed off with harbor boom and Alaska CHADEX was hired to deal with the spill. The vessel is on lease to the Army Corp of Engineers from the Navy. Coast Guard personnel from MSD Kodiak are on scene. A trajectory and weather forecast were requested from NOAA.

Not for navigation. The name is read automatically from official navigational warnings; a common name can belong to more than one ship, and a message may describe work the vessel is doing (cable, survey) rather than something that happened to it. Mariners must use official NAVAREA broadcasts and their national MSI service.
