🔍 Key Concepts

• MARPOL Annex V garbage regulations • Difference between plastics and paper/rags for discharge rules • When garbage in plastic bags is considered "plastic" vs. "non‑plastic"

💭 Think About

• First decide: in this question, is the item treated as plastic garbage or as paper/rags for discharge purposes? • Ask yourself: does putting otherwise legal garbage into a plastic bag change where you can discharge it? Why or why not? • Think about which types of garbage are allowed overboard at certain distances and which are never allowed to be dumped at sea.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which items MARPOL Annex V says may never be discharged into the sea under any circumstances • Check if a container or packaging (like a plastic bag) changes the discharge rule for its contents • Confirm the minimum distance from the nearest land allowed for the discharge of that class of garbage, if it can be discharged at all
