How far in advance must applications for waivers of any requirements of the regulations for oil transfer operations be submitted?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — 30 days before the operations
Under 33 CFR 156.107, any person requesting a waiver from the requirements for oil transfer operations must submit the application in writing to the Captain of the Port at least 30 days before the intended operation. This timeframe allows the Coast Guard sufficient time to evaluate safety risks and operational conditions.
