Seattle - The Coast Guard closely monitored the efforts of a tugboat crew as it regained control of a barge that was lost in tow Wednesday, May 19, 2010. The Coast Guard coordinated with the owners, the states of Washington and Oregon and the member agencies of the Regional Response Team before the Miki Hana crew was able to remedy the situation. The barge, containing approximately 700,000 pounds of construction material and 400 gallons of diesel fuel, remains offshore under the control of the Miki Hana.
