Federal Government Sued Over Decayed Warships
by Missy on Monday, October 29th, 2007
The federal government has been slapped with a lawsuit by a series of environmental groups, including the NRDC, over decayed war ships that have long been polluting the waters at Suisin Bay in San Francisco.
“The groups accuse the U.S. Maritime Administration of violating state and federal environmental regulations as dozens of decaying ships linger well past a congressional deadline ordering their removal”.
Over 70 rust-filled ships float in waters near San Francisco and many date back to World War II. The lawsuit seeks to have the ships properly disposed of and to hold accountable the state and federal governments for this ugly, unhealthy, and long overdue public hazard.
