CSERT is teaming with Resolve Marine to handle a challenging job assessing and remediating the derelict vessel SEAWITCH at the site of the former Kurt Iron and Metal facility in Baltimore, Maryland. The SEAWITCH was used for oil storage during the scrapping of naval and commercial vessels while the facility was in operation. On June 1, 1973, the SEAWITCH collided with the tanker Esso Brussels and sank in the New York harbor.
CSERT's Site Safety Officer Matt Doyle is managing the site safety program of the U.S. Coast Guard/SEAWITCH Baltimore harbor remediation project. http://www.csert.com/emergency.asp
