South African authorities unable to act against oil-slick ship Conti Hong Kong
A South African coastguard aircraft has spotted and photographed a foreign container ship trailing a long oil slick off the Eastern Cape coast. But local maritime authorities - who have identified the vessel as the Conti Hong Kong - are "powerless" to act, according to a reliable source in the maritime sector. The source said the container ship was spotted by a Kuswag plane on Thursday, June 7, 2012, "discharging oil from its bilges" at a position 14 nautical miles off Hamburg, south of East London. "The slick was 4 nautical miles long and 50-metres wide at the time it was spotted," the source told Sapa. South African maritime authorities were powerless to act against the vessel because there was "zero response capability", the source said. It is understood the Conti Hong Kong is westbound for Lagos in Nigeria, having sailed from Colombo in Sri Lanka. http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/SA-unable-to-act-against-oil-slick-ship-20120608
