Wed Jan 18, 2006 7:22 AM ET


NEW YORK, Jan 18 (Reuters) - A tug separated from an oil barge and sank in heavy seas off Cape Fear, North Carolina, early on Wednesday, killing two crew members, tug and barge operator Maritrans Operating Co. said.
Six were rescued and one was still missing from the crew of the Valour, said Maritrans, a unit of Maritrans Inc.
The M 192 barge, carrying 135,000 barrels of #6 oil, or residual fuel oil, is adrift, the company said, though it has not been reported damaged. The barge was headed for Corpus Christi, Texas.
Maritrans said it has activated its oil spill emergency plans and said it is coordinating its operations with the U.S. Coast Guard.
Ok so we are all on the same page here, there is a free floating barge 6 miles away from land carrying 4.5 million gallons of heavy fuel oil. The coast guard are trying to get control of the barge, let's hope they do....quickly! Every single time i have plans to come home a damn spill decides to arise the week before! Cross your fingers kids that the coasty's get ahold of this one. :)

time for a little correction. It's either "the gods" (small g), OR "God". Only one. Get it straight before Daddy sees it.
