On November 19, 2016, the USCG Sector Columbia River was notified that the M/V Nenita, a 738-foot bulk carrier laden with grain, had run aground in the Columbia River at river mile 30 (near Brookfield, WA) while outbound. The vessel is carrying 300,000 gallons of marine diesel and high-sulfur fuel oil. The vessel's hull was breached but no fuel was released. Two tugs assisted with stabilizing and turning the vessel for transit to Kalama. Spill response equipment is on-scene and standing by in the event of a fuel release.

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.
