Question 108General Subjects - QMED

The correct answer is D) all of the above. Federal regulations allow for three methods of complying with sewage discharge requirements for vessels: pumping the sewage ashore to an approved container, holding all sewage onboard, or treating the sewage in an approved marine sanitation device (MSD) system. All three of these methods are acceptable ways for a vessel to comply with the regulations regarding the discharge of sewage. The other options are incorrect because they only describe one of the three approved methods, rather than encompassing all of the allowed options for properly managing and disposing of vessel sewage.
