    Heavy seas caused an Offshore System Kenai (OSK) earth and fill dock, with fuel lines, to collapse, Oct. 2, 2019, resulting in the discharge of approximately 300 gallons of oil. Inspectors from Coast Guard Marine Safety Detachment Homer responded to the incident and are coordinating with the responsible party and state authorities to mitigate further pollution. The dock continues to erode, but all remaining hazardous materials have been removed. U.S. Coast Guard courtesy photo.

    A large sinkhole or structural collapse has occurred in what appears to be a dock or port facility, with the pavement and underlying structure having given way to reveal churning water below. The collapse exposes broken timber supports, pipes, and rebar, indicating significant structural failure. The facility appears to be located along a coastal area with cliffs visible in the background.
