#CCGLive - A Coast Guard overflight of the #ZimKingston at 11:30 today shows smoldering but no visible flames in the containers. However, firefighters may find some active fire in the containers once they are able to board the ship.
#CCGLive : 6 firefighters were able to board the #ZimKingston last night as well as 7 crew from the ship. The Salvage Master and team will assess the situation today and estimate it may take several days to fully suppress smoldering and fires inside the containers. 
From the Environmental Unit in Incident Command: air monitoring readings taken yesterday during the storm at 32 sites between Esquimalt Lagoon and along Dallas Road, were all below detection limits.
#CCGLive: CCGS Cape Calvert and CCGS Cape Naden have evacuated 16 people from the container ship M/V #ZimKingston near Victoria, #BritishColumbia after a fire broke out in ten containers earlier today.
The fire remains a dynamic event and an Incident Command Post has been set up to manage the situation. Responders are mobilizing to both fight the fire and recover the containers that broke away from the ship on Friday.
An Emergency Zone has been set up for 1NM around the ship while fire fighting operations are underway. Currently there is no safety risk to people on shore, however the situation will continue to be monitored.
