• 33 CFR Part 155 requirements for oil pollution prevention on tank vessels • Differences between requirements for equipment versus operating capability (what you must have fitted vs what you must be able to do) • Special provisions that apply to non-oceangoing tankships of 100 gross tons and above regarding oily mixtures

• Which option describes a safety feature that lets you quickly control or stop a discharge of oily waste if something goes wrong? • Which options are extra or specific design arrangements that are not universally required for all non-oceangoing tankships? • Look at each choice and ask: Is this clearly written as a regulatory requirement in 33 CFR 155 for a 1,000 GT non-oceangoing tankship, or does it sound like a reasonable practice but not a stated requirement?

✅ Before You Answer
