🔍 Key Concepts

• 33 CFR Part 151 – Vessel Garbage (U.S. regs that implement MARPOL Annex V) • Special rules for discharge of ground food waste between 3–12 NM from land • Design/ performance requirement for grinders/comminuters used before discharge

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: what is the key technical standard the CFR sets for grinders/comminuters – is it about size of particles, capacity of the machine, or where it is installed? • Look at the answers and separate what sounds like an operational/installation detail versus what sounds like a measurable discharge standard the Coast Guard can easily inspect. • Which option describes something you could verify with a simple measuring tool during a Port State/CG inspection?

✅ Before You Answer

• In 33 CFR, verify the specific maximum particle size/screen opening requirement (if any) for ground garbage discharged 3–12 NM offshore. • Check whether the regulation talks about ‘all garbage generated onboard’ or a narrower category (e.g., mainly food waste) for this distance zone. • Confirm that the rule is written as a clear, quantifiable criterion, not just a general recommendation or design preference.
