YOKOSUKA, Japan. U.S. Navy Barge YON-287, filled with 851,000 liters (225,000 gallons) of fresh water, departs Fleet Activities Yokosuka March 26 to support cooling efforts at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. YON-287 is the 2nd barge of two supplied by the U.S. Navy at the request of the Government of Japan to aid in the cooling efforts. The two barges supplied a total of 1.89 million liters (500,000 gallons) of fresh water. This transfer will not involve the use of U.S. Navy personnel.
