HUNTING CREEK

The owner or managing operator of a towing vessel that has selected the TSMS option and who has chosen to demonstrate compliance through the external survey program must have the vessel surveyed annually by a surveyor from the TPO and ensure that survey is conducted within 3 months of the anniversary date of the COI. The subject vessel is a TSMS-option ITV that utilizes the external survey program. The COI anniversary date is 15 July. As of today's date (21 October 2022), the annual survey has not yet been carried out, although the 3 month window (15 October) has passed. *The Sub M annual survey must be completed to the satisfaction of the TPO (ABS) within two weeks' time (04 November 2022), or this deficiency will change to a code 60 (prior to movement). Once completed, the owner or managing operator shall provide a copy of the Sub M annual survey report to the CG for clearance of this 835.

Received email from Vessel Rep stating that the vessel will be replacing the current fire pump (which was unable to operate at required pressure) and will need to install/change piping arrangements. Therefore, vessel requesting the worklist item be extended to next drydock (scheduled for January 2022). Proved bilge pump arrangement can be connected to fire main and functions at approximately 50psi. Granted extension of worklist item and updated 835 to reflect that. Sent to vessel rep.
