    1. The vessel was carrying 52,000 tons of petroleum coke. The SSC initially provided a brief hazard characterization of the cargo to aid the USCG responders in assessing the potential environmental concerns. On 5 September, the MSO Port Arthur requested an oil spill trajectory to further assess potential environmental concerns. This operation was completed by 9 September. NOAA was also asked to provide a side-scan sonar survey given that a team was already in the area.
    2. THREAT: OIL. COMMODITY: DIESEL FUEL, PETROLEUM COKE. TAGS: GROUNDING.

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.
