Alaska Chadux Network supported the M/V Maunalei with containing a leaking shaft seal this fall. The incident occurred while the vessel made a port call at the Port of Alaska in August before getting repaired in Oregon following the port call. ACN teams met the vessel at the port and deployed boom around the affected area of the ship, and maintained a live watch on-site for over 24 hours while the ship was offloading cargo.
