🔍 Key Concepts

• Master’s responsibility when accepting crew documents • Who has primary authority over Merchant Mariner Credentials (MMCs/MMDs) • Difference between refusing to employ someone and seizing a federal document

💭 Think About

• Think about what authority a vessel master or shipping company representative actually has over government‑issued credentials. • Consider which government agency is specifically responsible for investigating and acting on suspicious mariner documents. • Ask yourself: is it more appropriate to hold the document, to refuse to hire, or to report to the proper authority while leaving the document in the mariner’s possession?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which agency is responsible for issuing and policing Merchant Mariner’s Documents/Credentials (hint: Title 46 CFR). • Consider whether you are legally empowered to confiscate a federal document on your own initiative. • Decide whether immediate refusal to sign on or delayed reporting best supports maritime safety and compliance.
