🔍 Key Concepts

• 33 CFR Subchapter O requirements for Marine Sanitation Devices (MSDs) • Differences in treatment capability between Type I, Type II, and Type III MSDs • Meaning of "storage only" versus "treat and discharge" systems

💭 Think About

• Which MSD types are designed to treat sewage before discharge, and which are designed to only hold sewage? • How does the phrase "at ambient air pressure and temperature" help you distinguish between a simple holding tank and a treatment unit? • Think about which MSD type is commonly just a sewage holding tank used until it can be pumped out ashore.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 33 CFR Subchapter O how each MSD type (I, II, III) is defined and what each one actually does to the sewage. • Check which type is specifically described as only for the storage of sewage and flush water, without treatment. • Confirm that the correct type operates at ambient air pressure and temperature, meaning no special processing environment (no pressurization, heating, or active treatment).
