If, during an internal structural, cargo tank internal examination, or underwater survey, damage or deterioration to the hull plating, structural members, or cargo tanks is discovered, the Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection, may require the vessel to be drydocked or otherwise taken out of service to further assess the extent of the damage and to effect permanent repairs. The attending USCG Marine Inspector observed that frames 11, 12, and 13 in way of side longitudinals 5 through 7 in the #2 port void were damaged. Submit a repair proposal to the attending USCG Marine Inspector to effect permanent repairs to the damaged structural members. Once the repair proposal is approved, complete the repairs to the satisfaction of the attending USCG Marine Inspector. 46 CFR 91.40-3 (c)

A survey, either general or partial, according to the circumstances, shall be made every time an accident occurs or a defect is discovered which affects the safety of the vessel or the efficacy or completeness of its lifesaving appliances, fire-fighting or other equipment, or whenever any important repairs or renewals are made. The survey shall be such as to insure that the necessary repairs or renewals have been effectively made, that the material and the workmanship of such repairs or renewals are in all respects satisfactory, and that the vessel complies in all respects with the regulations in this subchapter.
