Q

The Certificate of Inspection of a damaged tank barge has expired. What certificate authorizes the barge to move to a repair facility for repair and inspection?

🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for moving an inspected vessel with an expired or invalid Certificate of Inspection (COI) • Purpose and use of a Permit to Proceed versus a Certificate of Inspection • Difference between documents used to request an inspection and documents that authorize temporary movement

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which document is specifically intended to allow a damaged or out-of-inspection vessel to travel to a shipyard or repair facility under restrictions? • Which choices are normal, full inspection documents, and which are special, limited-purpose movement documents? • For each option, think: does this paper "requests permission" or actually "authorizes a restricted voyage" for repairs?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which form is used when a vessel’s COI has lapsed but it must move only for repairs or inspection, not for normal commercial service • Distinguish between a document that initiates an inspection process and one that permits a controlled voyage to a repair yard • Verify which document, under 46 CFR Subchapter I, is associated with restricted operation to a repair facility rather than regular trade
