摘要: |
This report discusses the June 6, 2000 fire that occurred on the Alaska Marine Highway System ferry Columbia while it was underway in Chatham Strait, near Juneau, Alaska. None of the 498 people on board were killed or sustained serious injury; however, three passengers were transported to a shoreside hospital for medical conditions that preexisted the fire. Damages related to the accident exceeded $2 million. From its investigation, the National Transportation Safety Board identified safety issues in the following areas: the adequacy of inspection and maintenance procedures for electrical systems; the adequacy of management safety oversight of maintenance procedures; and the adequacy of firefighting procedures. Based on its findings, the Safety Board made recommendations to the Alaska Marine Highway System. |
