General
Subject:
Question
regarding
applicability
of
the
OSWI
standards
and
guidelines
TOPICS
DISCUSSED
AND
ACTION
TAKEN
The
purpose
of
the
conference
calls
was
to
provide
an
opportunity
for
representatives
of
the
U.
S.
Coast
Guard
(
USCG)
to
ask
EPA
questions
they
had
with
respect
to
applicability
of
the
proposed
standards
and
guidelines
for
OSWI
units
to
incinerators
on
ships.
The
USCG
indicated
that:

1)
Five
of
USCG
largest
cutter
classes
have
small
shipboard
incinerators.
A
sixth
cutter
class
to
be
constructed
will
also
have
incinerators.
2)
The
incinerators
on
these
ships
are
small
(
100
lb
­
700
lb
maximum
burn
per
day).
3)
These
incinerators
meet
IMO
certification
requirements
and
do
not
burn
hazardous
waste.
4)
The
USCG
ships
need
to
maintain
maximum
flexibility
regarding
their
ability
to
stay
at
sea
in
order
to
perform
their
duties.
