The Maritime Administration has notified At-Sea Navigation Inc. of its general willingness to provide Title XI financing to aid in the construction of two integrated tug/barge vessels for incineration of chemical wastes at sea.
At-Sea Navigation is actively developing an incineration-at-sea project and is in the process of obtaining necessary permits and negotiating contracts for designing and developing plans for onshore waste collection terminals.
Tank trucks will collect and transport hazardous chemical wastes from customer sites to marine terminals. The vessels will take the wastes to a burn site off the eastern coast of the United States. Upon completion of project plans and details, At-Sea will update its application and request formal MarAd Title XI approval.
