da Silveira in Fajã da Praia. Another chapel, consecrated in the name of Nossa Senhora das Dores (Our Lady of Sorrows), was constructed in 1797, following the original's destruction during the 1672 eruption (which was also destroyed following the Capelinhos eruption). Its civil parish status was returned on 1 October 1839, but only celebrated definitively in 1845, when it was extended from Praia de Baixo to the site of Ribeira das Canras. During the course of the eruption of the Capelinhos volcano (between 1957 and 1958) the parish was shaken by earthquakes and inundated with ash. The church of Nossa Senhora das Dores was destroyed completely during the course of the earthquakes associated with the eruptions. The two-year event caused a flight of emigrants to the United States and Canada. During the middle of the 20th century, the vineyards of the parish were attacked by pests that spread to the orange orchards and potato fields, causing loss of crops. It was only in 1961 when a new modernist church was built. CP Valour/Fajã Oil Spill On December 9, 2005 while attempting to navigate to calm waters in the Bay of Praia do Fajã, the container vessel CP Valour, a Bermudan-registered ship, originally traveling between Montreal, Quebec, Canada and Valencia, Spain, ran aground from the coast. It was transporting 800 containers, of which three were environmentally hazardous, and the vessel was filled with two thousand tons of fuel oil. The tugboats "São Luís" (from the port of Horta) and "São Miguel" (from the port of Ponta Delgada) were called out to assist the crippled vessel, and were later aided by the Russian tug "Fortiy Frilov" (in order to stabilize the ship in northerly swells). However, the bay's currents forced the ship further to shore, forcing the abandonment of the ship on 25 December. The hulls eventually breached, causing an oil spill into the bay and onto the beach at Fajã. Similarly, some containers containing toxic fire retardant, flammable ink and paint and sodium persulphate were affected, and several containers were damaged or destroyed during the incident, leaking their contents into the bay. In the report on the accident, the Marine Accident Investigation Branch noted several failures including lack of crew management and procedures on the part of the operator, the inexperience and lack of seamanship of the master, and lack of proper nautical charts and anchoring experience.
