You are operating a 1,000 GT non-oceangoing...

🔍 Key Concepts

• Requirements for non-oceangoing tankships in 46 CFR (look at parts dealing with pollution prevention and oily mixtures). • The specific equipment required to control or stop discharges of oily waste from pumps located on or serving the weather deck. • Distinguish between what is explicitly required by regulation and what might simply be good practice but not mandatory.

💭 Think About

• Which option directly helps you immediately control or stop a discharge of oily waste if something goes wrong during pumping? • Look for wording that sounds like a very specific regulatory requirement (exact phrase you might see in 46 CFR) rather than a general idea or extra equipment. • Ask yourself: does the regulation require a certain number of pumps, a specific piping arrangement, or a control feature to prevent accidental pollution?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR, Tank Vessels (subchapter D) what is required for a 1,000 GT non-oceangoing tankship regarding oily waste discharge equipment. • Check whether there is an explicit requirement for two pumps or a fixed bilge slop piping system, or if the key requirement is about a means to stop each pump from the weather deck. • Confirm that the chosen option matches the exact type of ship (non-oceangoing tankship) and tonnage (1,000 GT) described in the question.
