Norwegian Cruise Ships Admits to Illegal Dumping

"Norwegian Cruise Line Ltd. pleaded guilty to keeping a false log book in April 2000 and admitted the company lied to the Coast Guard for three years about illegal discharges from its 2,030-passenger Norway liner." The illegal dumping took place in southern Florida waters rich with sensitive coral reefs.
