Investigators believe an oil pipeline off Southern California that leaked earlier this month was pulled across the seafloor by a cargo ship dragging its anchor in rough seas in January. It's unclear whether the impact caused the leak, the Coast Guard says.
The DANIT’s operator, MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company, is headquartered in Switzerland and has a fleet of 600 vessels and more than 100,000 workers, according to the company.
The vessel’s owner, identified by the Coast Guard as Dordellas Finance Corporation, could not be reached for comment. Attorneys for MSC and Dordellas will have the chance to examine and cross-examine the government’s witnesses in the case and also to call their own witnesses, according to the Coast Guard. The investigation also includes the National Transportation Safety Board and other agencies.
