Prior to transfer of fuel, the Declaration of Inspection required by Coast Guard Regulation (33 CFR) __________.
• 33 CFR Part 156 – Oil and hazardous material transfer operations • Purpose and content of a Declaration of Inspection (DOI) before fuel transfer • Roles and responsibilities of the person-in-charge (PIC) during transfer operations
• Ask yourself: What is the Declaration of Inspection actually used for right before a fuel transfer begins? • Which people need to clearly agree that all safety checks and transfer preparations are complete? • Which options are obviously about other requirements, like vessel certification or pollution placards, and not about the DOI itself?
• Verify in 33 CFR 156 what specific form/confirmation is required immediately before starting a fuel transfer. • Check who the regulation names as responsible for conducting and confirming the pre‑transfer inspection. • Confirm that a DOI is about safe transfer operations, not general pollution placards or overall vessel certification.
