The Coast Guard is currently leading an investigation into the loss of the Titan submersible that was carrying five people to the Titanic. Capt. Jason Neubauer, the chief investigator, has stated that salvage operations are ongoing and the accident site has been mapped. The investigation timeline has not yet been determined. The convening of a Marine Board of Investigation by the Coast Guard is the highest level of investigation conducted, and they have the authority to make recommendations for civil or criminal sanctions.
In other news, the Navy has announced that they will not be using the Flyaway Deep Ocean Salvage System, which had the capability to lift the intact Titan submersible back to the surface. The decision was made because the debris found so far does not require the use of specialized equipment. The focus now is on mapping the debris field in preparation for recovery efforts and to support investigative actions.
Evidence is currently being collected in the port of St. John’s, Newfoundland, in coordination with Canadian authorities. The Transportation Safety Board of Canada has also begun its own investigation, speaking with those who traveled on the Titan’s mothership, the Polar Prince. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police is considering whether a full investigation is necessary, dependent on whether Canadian laws were broken. The Canadian Transportation Safety Board has expressed its intention to collaborate with U.S. agencies and share findings whenever possible, while also respecting Canadian legal protections for voice recordings and witness statements.
