Beacon sends Coasties to dump

A Coast Guard rescue team recently responded to a distress call sent from a garbage dump.

No one was in trouble, but rescuers didn’t know that when they first received the signal from the Port Townsend area.

Someone discarded an Emergency Position Indicating Radio beacon registered to a fishing vessel, believing the battery was dead. The device activated in the landfill.

The beacons are intended to transmit a signal to rescuers with the position of a boat in distress.

Be sure to remove the battery before you toss away a beacon.
