AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoMaritime Safety: A Marshall Islands-flagged tanker that apparently lost steering struck a docked cruise boat in New Orleans, sending it onto its side. Everyone aboard survived; 32 people were hospitalized. The port has sued to ensure investigators can keep control of the tanker. Marine Science: Researchers found Bikar and Bokak among the Pacific’s most intact ecosystems, recording rich reef and deep-sea life, turtle nesting grounds and seabird colonies. A 48,000-square-kilometre area around the atolls is now a national marine sanctuary. Clean Transport: A nine-year German-backed project to cut emissions from inter-island shipping has wrapped up, leaving the Marshall Islands experience with low-emission vessels, maritime training and the wind-assisted cargo ship SV Juren Ae. Water Quality: October testing found Majuro’s fish-processing water sources and most water sellers met EPA standards, but two ice makers and drinking water at Long Island and Rairok elementary schools failed.
