Confirm responsibilities before fueling. Follow facility and vessel procedures. Use the checklist below to organize the next steps and the linked guides to investigate the connected decisions.
Your practical starting checklist
- Confirm responsibilities before fueling.
- Follow facility and vessel procedures.
- Report leaks or unsafe conditions.
Put the plan to work
Keep a short record of your findings, the person responsible for each next step and any question that still needs an answer. For this topic, your final check is: report leaks or unsafe conditions. If circumstances change, revisit that check before relying on an earlier decision.
The next question to answer
For the wider process and related decisions, read Boat Sewage Systems, Pump-Outs and Discharge Rules.
When preparing for an accidental release during fueling, review spill reporting.
Official resources
Use the relevant authority for current requirements. These resources provide the next place to check; a practical recommendation is not an agency determination.
