Japan Tsunami Debris Drifts Onto Washington Coast
A
small boat that authorities believe to be from the 2011 Japanese
tsunami washed ashore Monday morning along the coast at Ocean Shores,
Wash.
Charles
Wallace, deputy director of the Grays County Emergency Management
Department, said the Japanese Consulate in Seattle was helping
identify the boat and decipher the Asian inscriptions on it.
Ecologists are concerned about some of the species of marine life
inhabiting the boat, so a marine debris task force was called into
action, he said.
