Port of Tauranga Status Update
The aft section of the Rena has sunk on the reef this morning; consequently we have not yet heard back from the Harbourmaster on the recommended shipping route to the port.
The salvors currently have significant marine resources on station to attend to any further lost containers. Current predictive modelling is suggesting any lost containers will drift in a southeasterly direction, away from the Astrolabe Reef.
Normal shipping movements are continuing. Ships arriving and departing the port should exercise extreme caution and maintain a vigilant lookout.
