Oil Skimmer for Commencement Bay
Belt in Middle Scoops Up Oil and Debris
Commencement Bay received an oil skimmer rig to fight oil spills. The skimmer can hold up to 880 gallons of oil and uses the belt in the middle of the rig to pick up oil and debris. The skimmer can hold the oil for about 98 percent of the oil spills that occur in Puget Sound, and it is run by the Marine Oil Pickup Service (MOPS) of Seattle.
Oil Slicks and Spills--Washington State - 2
40 Mallard ducks used to paddle Fife’s Wapato Creek had to paddle in a kitchen sink instead. Volunteer Chris Wells scrubbed one of the ducks affected by the oil spill in the creek. All ducks were expected to recover. The spill was blamed on vandals who were believed to have tampered with the storage tanks at the Old Valley Packing Co. recently purchased by the Milwaukee Railroad.

--Mailorder English--
Mui Tran, 58 is learning "survival" English by reading daily from the Sears catalog, the textbook for his class at Tacoma Community College. But the former tea farmer from the high mountains of Vietnam is quickly learning why so many people call the mail-order catalogs "wishbooks." Like his classmates in 90 similar classes in Washington, Tran's inability to speak English is barring him from finding a job.
