Senate Passes Bill To Close Jones Act Loophole On December 19, 1985 the Senate passed H.R. 2466, miscellaneous maritime provisions, adopting a substitute bill. The Senate amend- ments include a provision strongly supported by AWO that would close a loophole in the Jones Act which allow foreign-flag tugs to provide assist-service for foreign-flag vessels in U.S. ports. The House began con- sideration of this bill, but was un- able to complete action before ad- journment. Carnegie Hero Medals Awarded Posthumously To Fournier, Govoni Two Carnegie Hero Medals were recently awarded posthumously to Capt. William A. Fournier and seaman Daniel J. Govoni by the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. The medallions are awarded an- nually by the commission, citing the heroic actions of one individual to save another's life. Captain Founier and Mr. Go- voni were awarded the 3-inch bronze medals for their actions on April 11 of last year, to rescue fellow crew member Richard Lisa, who was trapped in an oxygen-deficient hold of a barge owned by Penobscot Bay Towing Company of Belfast, Maine. Mr. Lisa survived the barge accident, but his two 20-year-old rescuers suffocated and drowned in two-feet of bilge water in the hold. The men were part of a crew work- ing aboard tugs and barges at the Penobscot Bay Towing Company, a subsidiary of Fournier Marine Cor- poration, at Marshall Wharf. According to Walter Rutkow- ski, assistant secretary for the Car- negie Commission, a $2,500 hono- rarium was presented to the families of Captain Fournier and Mr. Go- voni along with their medals.
