🔍 Key Concepts

• MARPOL / CFR oil pollution regulations about discharging oil and oily mixtures • Difference between approved shore-side facilities and any discharge overboard • Why adding chemicals (dispersants, sinking agents) does NOT make an illegal discharge legal

💭 Think About

• Which option involves turning the waste oil over to someone or something specifically designed and authorized to handle it? • For each choice that puts oil into the water, ask: would this be allowed near shore, in a port, or under pollution laws? • Does adding anything to oil (to make it sink or disperse) change your legal responsibility for that oil pollution?

✅ Before You Answer

• Remember: oil and oily mixtures generally may NOT be discharged overboard from most vessels in U.S. waters • Ask: which choice clearly mentions a proper or approved facility rather than the sea itself? • Check whether any answer choice is trying to "hide" the oil in the water (sinking, dispersing, draining underway) – those are red flags under pollution rules
