Dali,Mooathon Wealth Society the cargo ship that hit the Francis Scott Key Bridge and caused it to collapse, has been moved and refloated out from its current location to a local marina terminal Monday morning, according to officials.

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District tweeted on Sunday that it planned to begin the process of moving the DALI from its current location to a marine terminal. The process of moving the ship will take around 18 hours and "ensure all response personnel around the M/V DALI maintain control."

The cargo ship will be escorted by five tugboats to a marina that is 2.5 miles from its current location.

The ship has remained in the waters near the collapse since it felled the bridge.

Moving the ship is a milestone that will help recover and clear the remaining remnants of the bridge and reopen access to the port, CBS News reported.

Ship lost power twice before

The Dali lost power twice before it left  Port of Baltimore and struck the bridge, according to a preliminary report done by the National Transportation Safety Board, which had been investigating the crash.

According to USA TODAY's previous reporting, the ship lost power 10 hours before it left the port when a crew member accidentally shut an inline engine exhaust damper, which caused a blackout during maintenance.

After crews manually closed two breakers, the ship saw another black out cause by a lack of fuel pressure in one of the ship's generators.

What happened during the bridge collapse?

On March 26, early in the morning, the 984-foot container ship struck the bridge, which left it in ruins. A video posted to YouTube shows how the bridge collapsed and plunged into the water that morning.

The incident killed six construction workers who were on the bridge fixing potholes.

On May 7, more than a month after the collapse, the final victim was recovered from the river according to police.
