🔍 Key Concepts

• 33 CFR Part 155 – Oil or Hazardous Material Pollution Prevention Regulations for Vessels • Special provisions in 33 CFR for uninspected towing vessels and fishing industry vessels • Practical purpose of oil transfer procedures during bunkering or fuel transfer

💭 Think About

• Think about what crew members MOST need at the actual fueling/transfer location to prevent spills or mishandling of oil. • Which answer choices mention items that are NOT always required for uninspected towing or fishing industry vessels (for example, equipment or documents they may not have)? • Ask yourself: are these procedures mainly about technical equipment details, paperwork, or about ensuring safe operational steps are immediately accessible to the people doing the transfer?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 33 CFR Part 155 which sections specifically mention uninspected towing vessels and fishing industry vessels and what they must have regarding oil transfer procedures. • Check whether those vessels are always required to have a Certificate of Inspection or specific equipment like an oily water separator under 33 CFR 155. • Confirm which option relates to how the oil transfer procedures must be displayed or made available rather than what other documents or equipment they must include.
