Every line above is a count of records the US Coast Guard wrote, or a date it recorded.
A blank resolution means none was recorded in this data; it does not establish that a
deficiency is outstanding. Years with a record are calendar years in which a record
exists, not years in service. What Maury does
not do.

09 - Working and Living Conditions › 092 - Working Conditions › Steam pipes and pressure pipes
Issued 6 February 2023
Resolved
Pressure vessels must be fitted with one or more relief valves. The total relieving capacity of such relief valves must prevent pressure from exceeding the maximum allowable working pressure. Relief valves must be tested twice every fire years, not exceeding three years in accordance with 46 CFR 143.245(b). Pressure relief valves serving both air receivers have not been tested as required. Additionally, the relief valve on the port air receiver is set at 325 PSI while the MAWP of the receiver is 200 PSI.
13 - Propulsion and Auxiliary Machinery › N/A - No Subsystem › Other (machinery)
Issued 6 February 2023
Resolved
To stop flow of fuel in the event of a fire or break in the fuel line, a remote fuel shutoff valve must be fitted on any fuel line that supplies fuel directly to a propulsion engine or generator prime mover. Vessel is equipped with remote fuel valves at the port and starboard holding tank. However to the unique design of vessel's fuel system, using the inline "stripping" tank, closing the remote fuel valves serving the holding tank would not stop the fuel supply to the propulsion engines or generators in a timely manor. Either, install remote fuel shut off valves in the fuel supply line serving each propulsion engine and generator or reconfigure fuel piping system to exclude "stripping" tank.
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Oil accumulation in engine room
