On 5 September 1945, all ship transfers to the Soviet Union were ordered stopped, although training for ships already transferred was allowed to continue. Accordingly, "EK-30" remained at Cold Bay along with "EK-26" (ex-"Gloucester"), "EK-28" (ex-"Newport"), and "EK-29" (ex-"Bath") for additional shakedown and training until 17 September 1945, when all four ships departed in company bound for Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in the Soviet Union, the last four of the 149 Project Hula ships to do so. Too late for World War II service with the Soviet Navy, "EK-30" served as a patrol vessel in the Soviet Far East.
