A container fire on a cargo ship carrying mining chemicals that erupted off the coast of British Columbia on Saturday is smoldering and appears to be under control, according to Canadian Coast Guard officials on Sunday.

On Saturday, sixteen crew members were evacuated off the MV Zim Kingston, with five remaining to fight the fire.

The ship is anchored several kilometers off Vancouver Island’s southern shore. Officials claim that residents on the island are safe, and that commercial vessels may travel freely between the ports of Vancouver and Seattle.

The firm has stated that the fire has burned itself out, according to Canadian Coast Guard Commander JJ Brickett. Tug boats had sprayed water around the fire’s perimeter to halt it from spreading, and evidence from a helicopter flyover on Sunday showed that it had worked.

“There’s no scorching or charring of those surrounding containers,” Brickett said. “As you could anticipate, the fire is smoldering, and we’re cooling on both sides.”

The coast guard has advised all ships to stay at least two nautical miles away, and the Transport Ministry has prohibited all aircraft, including drones, from flying within two nautical miles of the ship or below 2,000 feet above it.

Earlier on Sunday Danaos Shipping Co, the company that manages the container ship, said in a statement that no injuries had been reported.

The fire “appears to have been contained,” and a salvage and fire extinguishing agency was brought in to ensure the safe return of the vessel’s crew, Danaos said.

The mishap comes as more bad weather is expected to hit the area on Sunday and amid a global shipping traffic jam that has held up deliveries all over the world.

The ship is expected to weather the storm from its anchor, but tug boats are standing by and monitoring in case the ship were to move, Brickett said.

Canada’s coast guard said it has been working with its U.S. counterpart to track 40 containers that had fallen overboard when Zim Kingston encountered bad weather on Friday, saying they posed a significant risk to mariners.

The coast guard is still tracking these containers, which are to be recovered by the salvage company hired by the ship’s owners. At the moment none of them seem to be drifting toward shore, Brickett said.

“Mariners are advised to stay clear of the area. Currently there is no safety risk to people on shore, however the situation will continue to be monitored,” the coast guard said on Saturday, when video obtained by Reuters showed fire cascading down from the deck of the ship into the water.
