A blank resolution means none was recorded in this data; it does not establish that a

15 - Safety Management Systems (ISM) › N/A - No Subsystem › Emergency preparedness
Issued 20 September 2025
No resolution recorded
The Company should identify potential emergency shipboard situations, and establish procedures to respond to them. Since the emergency diesel generator is located in the main machinery space, the SMS does not address how to respond to a loss of power in the event of a machinery space casualty (fire, flooding, etc.) that renders the emergency diesel generator inaccessible. This causes a single point of failure that presents an unacceptable risk to the crew, vessel, and the environment. An external ISM audit is required.

Issued 20 September 2025
No resolution recorded
The Company should ensure that all personnel involved in the Company's SMS have adequate understanding of the relevant rules, regulations, codes, and guidelines. The crew did not identify any issues with the emergency source of power being located in the main machinery space nor that it is impossible to stop the passage of smoke and flame from the galley or accommodation spaces to the bridge.

The emergency source of electrical power, associated transforming equipment...and emergency switchboard should be located above the uppermost continuous deck and should be readily accessible from the open deck. PSCO observed emergency generator located in the main machinery space below the uppermost continuous deck.

07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Ventilation
Issued 20 September 2025
No resolution recorded
Ventilation systems of each of the following groups of spaces should be entirely separated from each other: machinery spaces; galley; cargo spaces; and accommodation spaces and the control spaces. The ventilation system for the galley is not separated from the accommodation spaces or the navigation bridge as required by CCSSC. Thus, it is not possible to prevent the passage of smoke and flame between the galley, the accommodation spaces, and the bridge.

07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Fire doors/openings in fire-resisting divisions
Issued 20 September 2025
No resolution recorded
Subject to provisions of 3.16.1.2 and 3.16.1.3, the fire safety requirements of bulkheads, decks, doors, and stairways should, as far and as practicable and reasonable in the opinion of the Administration, comply with the applicable requirements of 1974 SOLAS Convention for such bulkheads, doors, and stairways. A solid wooden door is the only boundary separating the accommodation spaces (on deck 1), also fitted with solid wooden doors, from the stairway leading to the navigation bridge (on deck 2). No doors separate the accommodation spaces from the galley (on the main deck). This design represents an unmitigated fire risk.

Paints, varnishes, and other finishes used on exposed interior surfaces should not offer an undue fire hazard in the judgment of the Administration and should not be capable of producing excessive quantities of smoke. Wood finishes are on the walls of the accommodation spaces, and the crew was unable to provide evidence that they will not pose an undue fire hazard or produce excessive quantities of smoke.
