BELLA BELLA, B.C. — A fuel barge loaded with millions of litres of diesel has broken away from its tugboat on British Columbia’s central coast but first responders confirm the barge’s anchor has been dropped and the vessel is no longer drifting toward nearby islands.
A spokesman with the Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre in Victoria says conditions have remained stable since the anchor was dropped late Sunday south of Goose Island in Queen Charlotte Sound.
