(AP) — When the Coast Guard says a barge loaded with crushed Ca- nadian cars can be moved it will finish a trip to a metal recycling yard in Tacoma — minus a few of the cars that splashed into Commencement Bay when the barge started leaking. An inspector is checking Monday to make sure a tempo- rary repair holds and the barge doesn't start leaking again on a half-mile tow to Schnitzer Steel on the Hylebos Waterway, said Coast Guard spokesman Na- than Littlejohn. Several of the scrap car hulks fell into the bay Sunday after the leaking barge started listing to one side. They caused a slight sheen of residual oil on the water, but all liquids had been removed from the cars before they were crushed. Emergency responders placed a boom around the barge. The cars will be unloaded at Schnitzer, the intended destina- tion, said company spokeswom- an Louise Bray.
