Donjon-SMIT, MSRC Announce AllianceDonjon-SMIT and Marine Spill Re- sponse Corporation (MSRC) have an- nounced the establishment of a cooper-ative alliance. This alliance, while it can support both tank and non-tank vessel owners, will include the ability of non- tank vessel owners to establish their pre-arranged agreements with both Donjon-SMIT and MSRC, required under recent NTVRP regulations by January 30, 2014 through enrollment linkages on either company?s website, as well as cooperation between the two companies in the event of a spill re- sponse or salvage/ re ghting incident. Historic Steam Powered Tugboat Raised Built in 1945, the 141-foot steam powered tugboat was utilized by the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Rail- roads. Originally named the Edward J Engel, it moved railroad car barges from Oakland to San Francisco until 1969. After which she passed through several hands and eventually her name was changed to TV ?Respect?. She re- mained a steam powered vessel till 2007, when she sank at her moorings in the Oakland Estuary. In 2013, the United States Environmental Protec- tion Agency embarked on a program to clean up the Oakland Estuary. By Oc- tober, the United States Coast Guard was involved due to the presence of the bunker oil. Complicating the salvage operation was the orientation of the vessel, listed hard over at 110 degrees starboard, and fully submerged at low tide. Heavy lift rigging and equipment was brought to the site and used to dead lift the 705 ton vessel to the sur- face, where the vessel was patched and pumped out. The vessel was re oated, and delivered to CalRecycle who will take custody of the vessel.
