Question 2382 Deck General

The correct answer is D) None of the above. According to the regulations governing Inland Waters of the United States, discharging any type of waste, including bottles, metal, or dunnage (packing material), overboard is prohibited. The Clean Water Act and MARPOL Annex V regulations strictly prohibit the discharge of any garbage or waste from vessels in Inland Waters. All waste must be properly stored and disposed of at an authorized reception facility. Discharging any type of solid waste overboard would be a violation of these environmental protection laws and regulations.
