跟进:新奥尔良撞船事故调查取回航行数据记录仪 初步报告预计30天内发布 仍有8名伤者住院

路易斯安那州新奥尔良市密西西比河撞船事故的调查又有新进展。国家运输安全委员会表示,已取回肇事油轮 Atlantic Asphalt 的航行数据记录仪。委员会成员 John DeLeeuw 说,初步报告预计在30天内发布,最终调查报告预计需要18至24个月。海岸警卫队上校 Melanie Burnham 周六对记者说,油轮看上去曾出现转向失灵,但事故确切原因尚不清楚。
路易斯安那州新奥尔良市密西西比河上11月13日发生的船舶相撞事故有了后续。油轮 Atlantic Asphalt 当天疑似失去转向能力,撞上停靠中的河上游轮 American Heritage。美联社报道,游轮上的197名乘客与船员全部生还,油轮船员也全部生还;32人被送往医院,其中包括两名在船体倾覆时被掀入密西西比河的警察,所有伤者均无生命危险,截至周六仍有8人住院。
新奥尔良港管理委员会在事故数小时后提起诉讼,要求确保联邦调查人员能够控制肇事油轮。诉状说,Atlantic Asphalt 给港口码头造成至少100万美元损失。一名法官周五签发令状,暂时把油轮置于联邦官员控制之下。海岸警卫队上校 Melanie Burnham 周六对记者说,油轮已被拖离现场,但游轮仍侧翻在密西西比河一处码头边,移走它可能需要数周时间。
American Heritage 建于2015年,由 American Cruise Lines 运营,为五层游轮,最多可载150名乘客,事发时刚结束一次为期八天、行经路易斯安那州与密西西比州多地的密西西比河航程。Atlantic Asphalt 长520英尺(约160米)。国际海事组织资料显示,该轮由在利比里亚蒙罗维亚注册的 Nave Shipping SA 拥有,该公司是港方诉讼的被告之一。新奥尔良市长 Helena Moreno 在记者会上说,船上人员无一失踪,称这是密西西比河上的奇迹。

Follow-up: Voyage Data Recorder Recovered in New Orleans Ship Collision Probe; Preliminary Report Expected Within 30 Days, Eight People Still Hospitalized
The investigation into the November 13 Mississippi River collision at New Orleans, Louisiana, has moved a step forward. The National Transportation Safety Board said it has recovered the voyage data recorder from the tanker Atlantic Asphalt. NTSB member John DeLeeuw said a preliminary report is expected within 30 days, with the final investigation report expected in 18 to 24 months. Coast Guard Capt. Melanie Burnham told reporters on Saturday that the tanker appeared to lose steering, but the exact cause of the crash is not known.
The collision on the Mississippi River at New Orleans, Louisiana, on Friday, November 13, took a legal turn within hours. The tanker Atlantic Asphalt, which apparently lost its steering, slammed into the docked river cruise boat American Heritage. All 197 passengers and crew on the cruise ship survived, as did the tanker's crew, the Associated Press reported. Officials said 32 people were taken to the hospital, including two police officers thrown into the Mississippi River when the boat rolled, but none of the injuries was critical, and eight people remained hospitalized on Saturday.
The Board of Commissioners of the Port of New Orleans sued to make sure federal investigators could seize the vessel. The lawsuit said the Atlantic Asphalt caused at least $1 million in damage to the port's terminal. A judge issued a warrant on Friday giving federal officials control of the ship for now. The tanker has been towed away, but the cruise ship remains turned on its side against a terminal in the Mississippi River and could take weeks to move, Coast Guard Capt. Melanie Burnham told reporters on Saturday.
The American Heritage was built in 2015 and is operated by American Cruise Lines. It is five stories tall and can hold up to 150 passengers, and it was finishing an eight-day cruise to several Mississippi River destinations in Louisiana and Mississippi. The Atlantic Asphalt is a 520-foot-long (160-meter-long) vessel. According to the International Maritime Organization, the ship is owned by Nave Shipping SA, registered in Monrovia, Liberia, which is one of the defendants in the port's lawsuit. New Orleans Mayor Helena Moreno said at a news conference that zero people were unaccounted for, calling it a miracle on the Mississippi.
