N.J. officials were hoping a barge with 40 tons of salt would
arrive from Maine. But the vessel wasn't flying the American
flag and officials couldn't get clearance from Homeland Security
to come to the Port of Newark. The barge sailed empty, leaving
the salt in Maine.


If there was any type of battery onboard, (such as in the engine
compartment, or any flashlights), this would clearly be a case of
SALT AND BATTERY. Which is clearly a violation of the law
