The Captain of the Port confirms that significant progress has been made throughout the day in the clean up operations on the shoreline following the oil spill yesterday.
The clean up operations on the shoreside were temporarily suspended at 4.30pm this afternoon as conditions were determined to be unsafe due to the high tide at this time.
The situation is continuously being monitored by drones and shoreside surveys with intentions to continue with clean up operations this evening, conditions permitting.
