Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This second volume covers the latest developments in the world of salvage. Changes in the marine operating environment, together with the national and international regulations, has meant changes in the salvage industry. Tugs with special fire-fighting equipment and oil clean-up facilities have come into operation. Personnel have had to be trained to work the equipment and to operate with government representatives on major disasters.

Includes index.
