The report explains the ramming of the bulk carrier Urduliz by the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, an aircraft carrier, at Hampton Roads, Virginia, on August 29, 1988. The safety issues discussed in the report include pilot employment practices of the U.S. Navy for its vessels transiting Norfolk harbor; the location of the anchored Urduliz in relation to the channel; U.S. Navy harbor control of naval vessel traffic; nonnavigational factors that influence navigation decisions; and the Entrance Reach Channel width and navigation aids. Recommendations addressing these issues were made to the United States Coast Guard and the United States Navy.
