In brief: From Wire Reports:
ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Responders said a main tow line has been attached to a Shell oil-drilling ship that grounded on rocks near a remote Alaska island.
Unified Command spokesman Ignacio Gonzalez said Royal Dutch Shell’s Kulluk was attached to the towing vessel Aiviq on Sunday.
The command center said an attempt to tow the drilling ship off Sitkalidak Island would come today, weather permitting. Crews want to tow the ship 30 miles to shelter in Kodiak Island’s Kiliuda Bay.
Responders said there’s no sign the hull of the Kulluk has been breached or that oil has spilled from the vessel.
