Fire protection regulations for towing vessels require that drills be conducted on board the vessel as if there were an actual emergency. Drills include all of the following, EXCEPT which item?
• 46 CFR Subchapter M requirements for towing vessel drills • Purpose of emergency drills: making practice as realistic as possible • Who must participate in required emergency drills
• Ask yourself which option would make the drill less like a real emergency if it were omitted. • Consider whether drills are meant for just a few crew or for everyone who has emergency duties. • Think about which choice describes something that must always be done during a drill versus something that might only apply sometimes.
• Verify in 46 CFR Subchapter M whether all crewmembers with assigned emergency duties must take part in drills. • Check if drills are required to include actual use and handling of emergency equipment, not just talking about it. • Confirm whether regulations specify testing alarm and detection systems during drills.
