A listing barge that sent crushed cars and scrap metal toppling into the Selkirk Water last month has been stabilized and moved to the Point Hope shipyard.
The barge operator, Schnitzer Steel, said naval architects will continue to assess the vessel’s hull at the yard.
Mike Geoghegan, a media representative for the company, said all the cars that fell into the water will be removed.
“Some of them have been removed already, because they were a navigational hazard and to facilitate movement of the barge,” he said.
