Tsunami Dock Washes up In Oregon

Tulisan 5 - Bahasa Inggris Bisnis 2

A concrete dock torn from a port in northern Japan by last year's tsunami has floated ashore in the US state of Oregon, more than eight thousand kilometres across the Pacific Ocean.

The dock is more than twenty metres long and weighs one-hundred-and-sixty-five tons.

A Japanese consulate official in Portland, Oregon, said a commemorative plaque showed it had come from the fishing port of Misawa.

Radiation checks proved negative, but scientists warn that invasive species foreign to the area may have hitched a ride.
Misawa in northern Japan lost four docks in the tsunami last March.
