Italian rescue officials called off the search for bodies on the Costa Concordia cruise ship Tuesday. Italy's Civil Protection agency announced Tuesday the hull is too deformed for rescuers to navigate within the ship safely.

More than two weeks have passed since the cruise ship grounded off the coast of Italy. Seventeen bodies have been recovered, with 15 people still missing.(video: The Telegraph)

What’s next for the ship? KIRO reports -- a half million gallons of fuel must be extracted.

“There it is. They were able to blast a hole on the underwater compartment. That would allow them to unload fuel once the ship is stable."

But according to MSNBC, cleanup and removal are not that easy, and could take up to 10 months.

“Inclement weather over the weekend shut down search and salvage efforts at the site of the ship wreck off the Tuscan coast. High winds and rough seas delayed plans to begin pumping 500,000 gallons of fuel off the Concordia.”

Fuel removal is expected to continue later this week. But that’s not the only difficulty the cruise’s US parent company -- Carnival -- is facing. Tuscan islanders are threatening to sue Carnival over potential environmental pollution. The Daily Mail quotes one fisherman:

“‘Let's hope we are able to solve everything without pollution … That's the main worry.’”

And another resident says…

“‘The damage to the environment is strong. If I think of just one cabin, it's like throwing a whole bar into the sea. That alone, I think, can pollute with just what it contains. Imagine a floating town!’”

According to The Wall Street Journal, Carnival Corp. estimated Monday the Costa Concordia crash will lower net income by as much as $175 million in fiscal year 2012.
