A man works in front of the Costa Concordia cruise ship laying aground outside the port the western Italian island of Giglio on January 12, 2013. On the eve of the first anniversary of the disaster, which claimed 32 lives, the head of Italy's civil protection agency said on January 12 that the wreck would be removed from the island by September at the latest. Four hundred salvage workers have been employed in the removal by a partnership between US salvage giant Titan and Italian salvage company Micoperi.
