New Delhi, May 14 (IANS) The Supreme Court Monday declined permission, for now, to the erstwhile American oil tanker Exxon Valdez, now rechristened Oriental Nicety, to anchor at the Gujarat ship-breaking port of Alang.
Exxon Valdez hit the headlines in 1989 when it ran aground, resulting in the oil spill running into hundreds of thousands of barrels of crude oil in Alaska. It was billed as the second largest oil spill in the history of America.
