Ship dumped tonnes of oily bilge off Newfoundland, crew says

Article



The ship is believed to have intentionally dumped its bilge off the coast of Newfoundland. The bilge is a mix of ballast water and oil from ship engines.

Crew members told CBC News that a pipe had been installed on the ship to bypass the bilge tank in order to dump directly into the ocean.

Third engineer Domingo Silva took a video of the bilge tank bypass as evidence.



Let me to help you understand Ottawa Boy's Guide For Breaking the Law.

Step One : Don't Tell Anyone !
Step Two : Really , I mean it , Don't Tell Anyone !
Step Three : Don't leave a paper trail behind. (ie : Don't cheat on your taxes)
Step Four : Don't leave any physical evidence behind.
Step Five : Don't leave any video evidence behind.

Basically , aside from swiping your work mates pen while he isn't looking ,
don't do it.

You ran a bypass pipe on your ship , and then hired any random ships engineer you could get cheap to staff this ship that was now breaking the Law. Are you stupid or what ? Are you begging to get caught ? Why don't you just take out a newspaper ad ? How many people had to work on that pipe to build it ? How many engineers did you hire and fire that traipsed through that ship and saw the pipe ?

In an age where there is no such thing as a permanent job , everything is strictly temporary and no one has loyalty to the company , in an age where everyones cell phone has a movie camera on it ... you have the idiocy to pull something like this ?

Companies that break the law are idiots. You have no employee loyalty, and everyone's got a camera. And you're not allowed to search their pockets and those phones fit real nice in a pocket or purse despite your no cell phone policy. One disgruntled employee who knows he's on the way out , looking for a way to give you the shaft before he leaves , and you're toast !

idiots !

Private individuals commit crimes.
Companies need to stick with bribing politicians to make what ever shady and unsavory thing they're doing perfectly legal. Like microsoft does. Now we can blab on them all we want and nothing happens.
