Officials said Monday the Costa Concordia may stay in place for at least 10 months before it can be broken up or salvaged.
Reports said people who live in the town nearby are worried about the sinking ship just sitting there as they think it may interfere with the upcoming tourist season.
Bad weather on Saturday hindered search efforts amidst the ship wreckage, which remains half submerged off Italy's Tuscan coast.
