Trying to put something together, hate to wait until June. Always like to meet up with Solers when possible

It would be nice to meet you Derf. I'll be driving a suburban with NJ tags and a yak on top. My wife, baby, and wookie will be in tow.

I'll probably be hanging with NewsJeff and his crew here and there.

Styrofoam Chunks Litter N.C. Coast

Posted: May. 10, 2007

CAPE LOOKOUT, N.C. — Rough weather in the Atlantic Ocean this week has left a mess along the North Carolina coast, with chunks of Styrofoam littering the beach from Cape Lookout north to the Virginia border.

The area around Drum Inlet is the most affected, officials said.

Late Sunday, the Paris Express encountered severe weather while heading from Savannah, Ga., to Norfolk, Va., and lost 21 containers overboard, including some containing foam packing peanuts, the Coast Guard said.

None of the cargo was listed as hazardous material, although Styrofoam could potentially harm pristine National Seashore areas, including critical nesting habitats for endangered turtles and various bird species.

Hapag-Lloyd, the shipping company that owns the Paris Express, has hired Moran Environmental Recovery to clean up the debris.

The company is working with the Coast Guard, the National Park Service, North Carolina Emergency Management, the North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commision, Carteret County Emergency Management, Dare County Emergency Management, Hyde County Emergency Management and Currituck County Emergency Management in the clean up.
