A large cargo ship remains stuck in the St. Lawrence River after running aground on Saturday afternoon.
The Tim S. Dool, a 225-metre-long lake freighter, became stranded in U.S. waters just east of Morrisburg, Ont. at approximately 12:30 p.m.
The St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation says there were no injuries and there is no reported pollution or ingress of material into the water.
The ship is currently stable and remains outside the navigation channel, the corporation said in a statement.
“Work is underway to finalize a salvage plan. An update will follow, once the salvage plan is known,” the corporation said.
The Tim S. Dool is owned by the Algoma Central Corporation, a Canadian shipping company. The ship went into service in 1967 with a gross tonnage of 18,700.
It services the St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes.
