JUNEAU, Alaska - As of this report, the total volume of fuel initially on board the vessel has been revised to 424,423  gallons of intermediate fuel oil (IFO 380) and 21,058 gallons of marine diesel oil. The midsection fuel tank ruptured when the vessel broke apart and released an estimated 40,131 gallons of IFO  380. The status of the centerline IFO fuel tanks #1 and #3 (originally estimated to contain 176,473 gallons and 104,000 gallons, respectively) remains unknown at this time. The actual amount of spilled fuel is also unknown.

Dependent on weather, today’s response activities will include shoreline cleanup, water quality sampling and wildlife recovery operations. Due to inclement weather, today’s air ops response activities will be on
there may be no lightering operations today. The protection group will continue to assess sites with
protective booming and reconfigure the boom to increase effectiveness and remove boom that is ineffective
or no longer needed. Oil sampling using net tows is scheduled for Unalaska, Iliuliuk Bay, and vessel
anchoring areas in Broad  and Captains Bay. On Sunday the Unified Command signed a new
Incident Action Plan for the period Jan. 24 to Jan. 31.

On Monday, shoreline cleanup crews worked in Skan Bay, Portage Bay, Humpback Bay, and collected
1,255 bags of oily waste (21 cubic yards). To date, cleanup crews have collected 28,675 bags
(478 cubic yards) of oily solid waste. To date, the protection group has removed 5000’ of boom that
is ineffective or no longer needed. They have also decontaminated 4,000 feet of boom.

There is no change in the lightering status due to bad weather on Monday. On Saturday the lightering team
removed 17,216 gals of IFO from # 4 port tank. The total volume lightered from the vessel to date is
76,490 gallons of IFO/water and 3,094 gallons of diesel for a total of 79,584 gallons of IFO/water/diesel.

There was one dead oiled bird recovered on Sunday and another two on Monday. On Tuesday, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reported that a total of 970 dead birds have been recovered.

On Monday, water quality sampling crew pulled 32 passive sampling crab pots and encountered 1 oiled
snare near the surface adjacent to Little South America which is on the south end of Amaknak M/V
Selendang Ayu Island and 1 smear on a snare tow at 9-12’ depth outside of Hog Island. The crew will
continue tows in the Unalaska areas. A new motor vessel Selendang Ayu Oil Spill Fisheries Water Quality
Sampling Plan is being developed for the next phase of the program.

To date, seafood inspections at the Dutch Harbor and Akutan processing plants have found all products
free of oil contamination. Inspections are conducted throughout the day and night to check crab and
pollock as they arrive at the docks.

Vessels from the opilio crab fishery in the Bering Sea have all returned to Dutch Harbor and Akutan. The
crab fleet left Dutch Harbor and Akutan Jan.13, and the fleet reported no incidents of
contamination. The Unified Command has implemented an enhanced program to protect seafood
quality. Shorelines surveys will continue in Unalaska Bay and Captains Bay for tar balls and tar patties.
Vessels are using crab pots and tow nets to detect submerged oil, aerial surveys are checking for floating
oil, and additional staff from the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation Environmental Health 
seafood program are inspecting commercial catches at Dutch Harbor and Akutan processors.
Pollock fleets are being issued passive oil contamination detection devices per Fisheries Workgroup
guidance.

The New Oil Investigation Team (NOIT) remains on stand by to respond to any new oil observed in the
Dutch Harbor area.

Predicted weather in Dutch Harbor today calls for cloudy skies, rain, breezy, temperatures low to upper
30s, southeast winds building to 10-15 knots, and seas at three feet. Tomorrow's weather will consist of rain and snow, temperatures low to high 30s, southeast winds at 25 knots and seas at four feet.
