LONG BEACH, Wash. —

A salvage contractor plans to cut up a 61-foot crabbing boat that ran aground last Friday at Leadbetter Point at the entrance to Willapa Bay.

The state Ecology Department and Coast Guard are monitoring the work, which should be completed by Friday.

The department says the boat leaked about 650 gallons of fuel and another 650 gallons were pumped off last weekend.
