Cruise Ship Dumps Tons of Sewage into Puget Sound
SEATTLE -- (AP) -- A cruise ship released more than 40 tons of raw sewage into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the first case of its kind in Washington state's inland marine waters, officials say.
The release occurred early Saturday morning as the Norwegian Sun was northwest of Port Townsend en route to Seattle, state Ecology Department officials said Tuesday. It was reported by the captain and is being investigated by the state agency and the Coast Guard.
