State Department started wreck removal
After the shipwreck of the "Baie des Anges" off Tréport, parts of the hull of the ship were washed ashore. Environmental cleanup and debris removal has been started by the State Departments of Haute-Normandie with a dredger, a tractor and a crane on Nov 30. The sub-prefect of Dieppe, Martine Laquièze, was present at the scene, assisting in the organization of services and keeping a crowd of spectators behind the barriers. Technical services of Somme en Seine Maritime, police, navy and other personel have worked throughout the day. All fear of pollution was rejected. The operational center of the Navy in Cherbourg monitored the coastline from Mont Saint-Michel to the Belgian border. 70 % had evaporated in the afternoon, and the remainder was expected to dissolve too. The salvaged debris was kept for investigation by insurance experts in order to determine the cause of the wreck. Heavy parts which remained on the beach were to be removed in the forthcoming days.
