🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for fixed foam fire-extinguishing systems on tank vessels • Special rules that apply to vessels constructed before a certain date (grandfathered vessels) • Difference between foam system duration for cargo deck areas vs. cargo tanks/other spaces

💭 Think About

• Look up the specific 46 CFR section that covers fixed foam systems on tank vessels and note any subsections that refer to vessels constructed before 1970 • Compare the required foam discharge duration for older vessels versus the durations that might apply to newer construction standards • Ask yourself which of these times is long enough to control a cargo deck fire but still reflects 1960s-era standards, which are often less demanding than current rules

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify you are in Title 46 CFR, not 33 CFR or SOLAS • Confirm the section deals specifically with tank vessels and fixed deck foam systems (not portable foam or engine-room systems) • Check that the required duration is clearly stated as a minimum time of foam application and that it applies to vessels constructed in 1968 or “before [a certain cut‑off date]”
