It's being reported by CBC Radio that the McNally Olympic barge is still intact. This despite being pounded by heavy seas for about two weeks. The Canadian Coat guard is making regular overflights and claims there is no sign of any pollution or break up of the barge.
When the seas permit the players will decided the fate of the oil laden barge.
Besides the coast guard there are 3 or 4 other government departments ‘keeping an eye’ on the situation, as well as the owners of the barge, who have the ultimate responsibility in any salvage or clean up efforts. The owners are reported to be re evaluating their response plan; safety for any response crew is paramount.
With the constant storms, the related surges and the on coming winter conditions all makes for a very uncertain picture.
Chasing the bear.
CBC radio in GB is also reporting on the 6 F18’s from Bagotville who have been in GB since Saturday. Besides the jets there are about 40 support crew. No one is saying if any bears have been intercepted, but the F18’s are doing take off and response time workouts.
One explanation as to why the jets are here is that the hangers in Bagotville are being renovated, there is no confirmation of this. Many think it is just common sense to have the interceptor wing stationed closer to the coast in case of any infringements, works for me.
A retired chief of defense general speculated that the continuing testing of North American air space by the Russians is related to Global Warming and Arctic Sovereignty [who owns what] rather than any return to the Clod War, works for me.
But, what happens if [who owns what] cant be worked out with words and signature, eh?
