Two bulkcarriers detained due to defiencies
The US Coast Guard set in motion a detention of the "Atlantic Ruby" and "Amber L" on Feb. 23, 2017, after discovering substandard safety issues while conducting routine Port State Control exams onboard the vessels along the Columbia and Willamette Rivers. The "Atlantic Ruby" was boarded in Portland on Feb. 23, after Port State Control Officers detected the SOLAS deficiencies. Coast Guard inspectors found the fixed fire extinguishing system was improperly serviced, with the time delays left disconnected. The time delay ensures personnel inside a room are able to escape before the fixed fire extinguishing agent is released. A separate Port State Control exam conducted in Kalama onboard the "Amber L" identified several safety discrepancies. Inspectors found cooling water leaking from the main engine and multiple issues with the vessel’s steering system. T Both bulkcarriers had remain in the Columbia River Captain of the Port zone until the discrepancies have been corrected.
