    Excerpt
    One of the two lift cranes commissioned by the US Navy has arrived at the Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park to begin the removal of a grounded US minesweeper, according to the Philippine Coast Guard. The SMIT Borneo of SMIT Singapore Pte Ltd. arrived at the marine park on yesterday. Naval salvage experts have determined that towing the $277-million USS Guardian would cause more damage to the reef and to its hull.
