NEA added that it is investigating if any environmental regulations have been violated, without elaborating on which parties are being probed.
Some dead fishes were found in the sea off Raffles Marina after the fire, where the water quality was affected by oil and grease carried by the run-off, the agency added. Mr Daniel Wong, 53, who is coordinating the claims for six owners so far, estimated that it would cost him $10,000 to repaint the sullied hull of his 36-feet-long boat.
Boat operator Daniel Wong had to dispose of more than 20 fishes on July 6, after they were killed by a drop in water quality.

Usually within the marina we could catch over 10 fishes before proceeding to other waters.”
Angler Patrick Lim said he hopes to seek compensation for his live well - a fish tank in his boat that was connected to the sea. PHOTO: PATRICK LIM
