The Fall River Fire Department has been working “around the clock” to clean up and stabilize a tugboat that began sinking over the weekend.

The boat, identified by authorities as the tug Guardian, started taking on water Saturday while docked near the Brightman Street Bridge.

Since the tugboat was leaking diesel fuel and oil, the department deployed containment booms to limit the spread of contaminants into the surrounding water.

Cleanup and stabilization efforts have continued over the past few days, with the department deploying an additional containment boom and absorbent pads to capture any residual contaminants.
