Tug spilt oil after developing a list
Federal, state, local and contract emergency responders have contained a small spill from the "Capt. Bill Mantle" and were working to stop the leak from the tug near San Leon on Dec 5, 2015. The ship had developed port side damage and was leaning towards a barge with parts of the main deck submerged. The tug was docked, waiting to be put in a dry dock so no one was on board. Responder’s estimated that about 200 gallons of red diesel fuel had leaked from the tug. Garner Environmental Services responders surrounded the leaked fuel and tug with boom and were recovering the fuel at a pace that kept up with it until it can be secured. Divers were called to plug the leak. The tug could contain what remains of the estimated 7,000 gallons of fuel. T&T Salvage responders were called to right the tug in the morning of Dec 6. The Coast Guard Marine Safety Unit Texas City was notified of the possible situation Friday afternoon and worked with the Galveston County Office of Emergency Management, the Texas General Land Office and Texas City Police Department to begin investigating the report and to coordinate appropriate response measures.
