MV Federal Fuji

MV Federal Fuji

The Motor Vessel "Federal Fuji" is a bulk carrier built in 1986, by Nippon Kokan in Shimizu, Japan. The ship was built for Viken Lakers, based in Bergen, Norway. The "Federal Fuji" was involved in a collision with the M/V "Tecam Sea" in the port of Sorel, Quebec on 27 April 2000.cite web|title=Collision Report|url=http://www.tsb.gc.ca/en/reports/marine/2000/M00L0039/M00L0039.asp|accessdate=February 11|accessyear=2008] The squat effect phenomenon is believed to be a factor in the collision.

Between 1993 and 1994, "Federal Fuji" was caught illegally dumping oil off the Canadian coast. The ship was flying a German flag at the time, and her owners were fined $25,000.cite web|title=Illegal Oil Dumping in Canada|url=http://www.spillcon.com/2007papers/Louis%20ARMSTRONGseminar.pdf |accessdate=February 11|accessyear=2008]
