CLIPPER LEGACY ARRIVES

CLIPPER LEGACY arrived off of Erie at 1000 this morning and proceeded inbound, turning in the harbor and docking at the Mountfort Terminal by 1130. The LEGACY is scheduled to load around 5,000 tons of biodiesel manufactured by Lake Erie Biofuels, bound for Europe.

After docking at the Mountfort Terminal, Lakeshore Towing's tug FLATTOP made quick work of deploying the oil-containment boom around the vessel and loading of biodiesel from rail cars began early this afternoon. The CLIPPER LEGACY should be in port until late tomorrow or early Monday loading.

Photos of today's activity will follow tomorrow.
