• Uninspected vessels and basic fire protection requirements under 46 CFR Subchapter C • Who has legal authority in the U.S. to approve marine safety equipment used on vessels • Difference between a government regulator and private classification or standards organizations
• Which of these organizations actually makes and enforces federal laws for vessels operating in U.S. waters? • Which organizations mainly create technical standards or classification rules, but do not themselves have legal enforcement power over small vessel equipment? • When the regulation says "approved," whose approval does it specifically mean in the context of U.S. maritime law?
