IV. NARRATIVE
On August 30, 2017 the Unites States Coast Guard called to report a large sheen on the water near Long Cove in Searsport. Upon arrival I noticed there was a large black carbon particulate plume, which generally occurs from the output of a large diesel motor, which is not petroleum based nor requires any clean up action from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection.No further action by the Division of Response Services is expected at this time.
V.ATTACHMENTS
None
