A worker collects oil on the shore spilled from a Taiwanese container ship owned by the shipping company T.S. Lines off the shore of Shimen, New Taipei City, Taiwan. The 15,487-ton ship ran aground in a storm about 300 metres from the shore while it was sailing from Hong Kong to Keelung Port in Taiwan on 10 March. The ship carries about 407 tons of fuel and FW40 tons of kerosene, about half of which has been pumped out. In the past days, pumping has been hampered by stormy weather, and oil has begun to leak and some containers have tumbled into the sea. Pumping oil was stopped on 25 March when the ship broke into two parts and rescue boats could not reach it. As the site it near a fishing port and a nuclear power plant, environmentalists warned that if the spill is not contained in time, its damage on the ecosystem could last for two to three years. EPA
