Q

Which commodity would be regulated by subchapter D, Rules and Regulations for Tank Vessels?

🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR Subchapter D – Tank Vessels (know what kinds of liquid cargoes it covers) • Difference between bulk liquid hazardous materials and other cargoes • How specific chemicals like vinyl chloride, benzene, and asphalt are typically transported (bulk liquid in tanks vs packaged cargo)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which of these products are commonly carried as bulk liquid cargoes in tanks on tankships or tank barges? • Consider: Does Subchapter D apply to all tank vessels carrying any liquid, or only to certain types of hazardous or flammable liquids? • Think about: Are these chemicals each, by themselves, the type of cargo you’d find on a tank vessel covered by Subchapter D?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check whether Subchapter D is written to cover tank vessel operations rather than one specific chemical • Verify which of the listed cargoes can be carried as bulk liquids in tank vessels under Coast Guard regulations • Make sure you’re not confusing Subchapter D with Subchapter O (Dangerous Cargoes) or other subchapters that deal with specific hazardous materials
