HTMS Prasae a Tacoma class frigate, previously of the United States Navy, acquired in 1951 and decommissioned in 2000.
The Tacoma class of patrol frigates served in the United States Navy during World War II and the Korean War. The class is named for its lead ship, USS Tacoma (PF-3), which in turn was named for the city of Tacoma, Washington. Ships of the class also served in the British Royal Navy – in which they were known as Colony-class frigates – and the Soviet Navy during World War II. Tacoma-class ships served in the United States Coast Guard and various navies post-World War II.
The Colony class frigates were a class of 21 ships constructed in the United States by Walsh-Kaiser of Providence, Rhode Island for transfer under Lend-Lease to the Royal Navy in 1944. They were given the names of relatively minor colonies as names of large colonies had been used for the Crown Colony class cruisers.
The ships were built as United States Navy Tacoma-class patrol frigates, a design that was an adaptation of the Royal Navy River-class frigate, with modifications made mainly to use materials and parts more readily available in the United States. For example, American 3-inch (76 mm) guns were used as the main surface armament in the Tacoma- and Colony-class frigates instead of the British 4-inch (100 mm) guns of the River class. They were mass-produced to mercantile standards to enable their speedy construction in shipyards that did not normally build warships. They were built more quickly than British shipyards could build the Rivers, but the quicker build required more man-hours and sterling cost was about twice that of a River. Upon transfer to the Royal Navy, each ship underwent modifications to bring her in line with Royal Navy requirements.

For a collection of photos about the Huron River Spill, look here: www.flickr.com/photos/ahknaten/collections/72157626327597...
On July 19, 2010, the Huron River in Ann Arbor, Michigan had a pollution spill. The case is unsolved but closed. Booms were setup, the pollution flowed for hours and I witnessed it. Yet no one was ever charged. Someone was able to spill something and get away with it.
20 Days after the spill, I went for a walk around Gallup Park. Here are the photos that I took that day.
After the booms failed the pollutants presumably went downstream and dispersed. The boom failure was due to a rain event, but the initial spill was not. There is a considerable amount of press related to phosphors from fertilizers that focuses on the average citizen, and Gallup Park had an algae bloom that can be caused by pollution from phosphors. Remember, the AAFD report stated an 88% confidence of phosphoric acid in the spill (a DPS report states that the AAFD report with the acid reference may be inaccurate). Also, some reports stated that petroleum was mixed in as well. I know that I could smell something, so the reports that state that it was 'non-odorous' are not complete. I'm not saying that this spill caused all of the algae in Gallup, but unless Ann Arbor tells me that petroleum and acid is allowed to be dumped legally, then this spill could not have helped the environment, and as there were no accident or permit reports, I presume it must have been illegal?
According to the City of Ann Arbor, "A Resident's Guide to Clean Water", Spring 2010 edition:
www.a2gov.org/government/publicservices/systems_planning/...
"Dumping waste into storm drains, ditches, or waterways contaminates drinking water supplies, recreational areas, and wildlife habitat. Plus, it is illegal"
"In Ann Arbor, an ordinance prohibits the use of fertilizers containing phosphorus unless a need is demonstrated through a soil test"
According to the HRWC
"nuisance algae blooms that can result from excess phosphorus entering our freshwaters"
