WELLINGTON – Oil from a stranded container ship began washing up on the shore of New Zealand pristine Bay of Plenty Monday, as salvage crews battened down the crippled vessel in the face of a looming storm.
Officials closed the beach and warned people to avoid the toxic discharge, part of a 5km slick, which was blown ashore from the Rena accident site 22km off the coast.
MNZ said the slick, formed when an estimated 20 tonnes of oil leaked from the stricken vessel, was expected to pollute neighbouring beaches in the next 24 hours.Yen viet yen sao
